rcu: Add polled expedited grace-period primitives

2022-07-22T00:41:56+00:00

This commit adds expedited grace-period functionality to RCU's polled
grace-period API, adding start_poll_synchronize_rcu_expedited() and
cond_synchronize_rcu_expedited(), which are similar to the existing
start_poll_synchronize_rcu() and cond_synchronize_rcu() functions,
respectively.

Note that although start_poll_synchronize_rcu_expedited() can be invoked
very early, the resulting expedited grace periods are not guaranteed
to start until after workqueues are fully initialized.  On the other
hand, both synchronize_rcu() and synchronize_rcu_expedited() can also
be invoked very early, and the resulting grace periods will be taken
into account as they occur.

rcu: tiny: Record kvfree_call_rcu() call stack for KASAN

2022-07-19T18:40:00+00:00

When running KASAN with Tiny RCU (e.g. under ARCH=um, where
a working KASAN patch is now available), we don't get any
information on the original kfree_rcu() (or similar) caller
when a problem is reported, as Tiny RCU doesn't record this.

Add the recording, which required pulling kvfree_call_rcu()
out of line for the KASAN case since the recording function
(kasan_record_aux_stack_noalloc) is neither exported, nor
can we include kasan.h into rcutiny.h.

without KASAN, the patch has no size impact (ARCH=um kernel):
    text       data         bss         dec        hex    filename
 6151515    4423154    33148520    43723189    29b29b5    linux
 6151515    4423154    33148520    43723189    29b29b5    linux + patch

with KASAN, the impact on my build was minimal:
    text       data         bss         dec        hex    filename
13915539    7388050    33282304    54585893    340ea25    linux

rcu/context-tracking: Remove unused and/or unecessary middle functions

2022-07-05T20:33:00+00:00

Some eqs functions are now only used internally by context tracking, so
their public declarations can be removed.

Also middle functions such as rcu_user_*() and rcu_idle_*()
which now directly call to rcu_eqs_enter() and rcu_eqs_exit() can be
wiped out as well.

rcu/context-tracking: Remove rcu_irq_enter/exit()

2022-07-05T20:32:59+00:00

Now rcu_irq_enter/exit() is an unnecessary middle call between
ct_irq_enter/exit() and nmi_irq_enter/exit(). Take this opportunity
to remove the former functions and move the comments above them to the
new entrypoints.

rcu: Remove special bit at the bottom of the ->dynticks counter

2021-08-06T20:41:48+00:00

Commit b8c17e6664c4 ("rcu: Maintain special bits at bottom of ->dynticks
counter") reserved a bit at the bottom of the ->dynticks counter to defer
flushing of TLBs, but this facility never has been used.  This commit
therefore removes this capability along with the rcu_eqs_special_set()
function used to trigger it.

rcu: Remove the unused rcu_irq_exit_preempt() function

2021-05-10T23:22:53+00:00

Commit 9ee01e0f69a9 ("x86/entry: Clean up idtentry_enter/exit()
leftovers") left the rcu_irq_exit_preempt() in place in order to avoid
conflicts with the -rcu tree.  Now that this change has long since hit
mainline, this commit removes the no-longer-used rcu_irq_exit_preempt()
function.
