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/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: Move RCU-dynticks internal functions to context_tracking

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

Move the core RCU eqs/dynticks functions to context tracking so that
we can later merge all that code within context tracking.

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.

Merge tag 'rcu.2022.03.13a' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu

2022-03-21T21:00:56+00:00

Pull RCU updates from Paul McKenney:

 - Fix idle detection (Neeraj Upadhyay) and missing access marking
   detected by KCSAN.

 - Reduce coupling between rcu_barrier() and CPU-hotplug operations, so
   that rcu_barrier() no longer needs to do cpus_read_lock(). This may
   also someday allow system boot to bring CPUs online concurrently.

 - Enable more aggressive movement to per-CPU queueing when reacting to
   excessive lock contention due to workloads placing heavy update-side
   stress on RCU tasks.

 - Improvements to RCU priority boosting, including changes from Neeraj
   Upadhyay, Zqiang, and Alison Chaiken.

 - Various fixes improving test robustness and debug information.

 - Add tests for SRCU size transitions, further compress torture.sh
   build products, and improve debug output.

 - Miscellaneous fixes.

With the removal of CONFIG_RCU_FAST_NO_HZ, the parameters in
rcu_needs_cpu() are not necessary anymore. Simply remove them.

2022-02-14T18:36:58+00:00

Remove the __read_mostly attributes from the rcu_scheduler_active
extern declarations, because these attributes are ignored for
prototypes and we'd have to include the full  header
to gain this functionally pointless attribute defined.

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()

rcu: Provide polling interfaces for Tree RCU grace periods

2021-03-22T15:23:48+00:00

There is a need for a non-blocking polling interface for RCU grace
periods, so this commit supplies start_poll_synchronize_rcu() and
poll_state_synchronize_rcu() for this purpose.  Note that the existing
get_state_synchronize_rcu() may be used if future grace periods are
inevitable (perhaps due to a later call_rcu() invocation).  The new
start_poll_synchronize_rcu() is to be used if future grace periods
might not otherwise happen.  Finally, poll_state_synchronize_rcu()
provides a lockless check for a grace period having elapsed since
the corresponding call to either of the get_state_synchronize_rcu()
or start_poll_synchronize_rcu().

As with get_state_synchronize_rcu(), the return value from either
get_state_synchronize_rcu() or start_poll_synchronize_rcu() is passed in
to a later call to either poll_state_synchronize_rcu() or the existing
(might_sleep) cond_synchronize_rcu().
