There are options that are unique to a specific tracer (like function and
function graph). Currently, these options are only visible in the options
directory when the tracer is enabled.
This has been a pain, especially for something like the func_stack_trace
option that if used inappropriately, could bring the system to a crawl. But
the only way to see it, is to enable the function tracer.
For example, if one had done:
# cd /sys/kernel/tracing
# echo __schedule > set_ftrace_filter
# echo 1 > options/func_stack_trace
# echo function > current_tracer
The __schedule call will be traced and a stack trace will also be recorded
there. Now when you were done, you may do...
# echo nop > current_tracer
# echo > set_ftrace_filter
But you forgot to disable the func_stack_trace. The only way to disable it
is to re-enable function tracing first. If you do not add a filter to
set_ftrace_filter and just do:
# echo function > current_tracer
Now you would be performing a stack trace on *every* function! On some
systems, that causes a live lock. Others may take a few minutes to fix your
mistake.
Having the func_stack_trace option visible allows you to check it and
disable it before enabling the funtion tracer.

Cleaned up the ftrace_trace_stack() function call a little to allow better

Some drivers might use the per-cpu interrupts and still might be built as a
module. Export request_percpu_irq an free_percpu_irq to these user, which
also make it consistent with enable/disable_percpu_irq that were exported.

Use a cute little macro trick to keep the names of the trace flags file
guaranteed to match the corresponding masks.
The macro TRACE_FLAGS is defined as a serious of enum names followed by
the string name of the file that matches it. For example:
#define TRACE_FLAGS \
C(PRINT_PARENT, "print-parent"), \
C(SYM_OFFSET, "sym-offset"), \
C(SYM_ADDR, "sym-addr"), \
C(VERBOSE, "verbose"),
Now we can define the following:
#undef C
#define C(a, b) TRACE_ITER_##a##_BIT
enum trace_iterator_bits { TRACE_FLAGS };
The above creates:
enum trace_iterator_bits {
TRACE_ITER_PRINT_PARENT_BIT,
TRACE_ITER_SYM_OFFSET_BIT,
TRACE_ITER_SYM_ADDR_BIT,
TRACE_ITER_VERBOSE_BIT,
};
Then we can redefine C as:
#undef C
#define C(a, b) TRACE_ITER_##a = (1 << TRACE_ITER_##a##_BIT)
enum trace_iterator_flags { TRACE_FLAGS };
Which creates:
enum trace_iterator_flags {
TRACE_ITER_PRINT_PARENT = (1 << TRACE_ITER_PRINT_PARENT_BIT),
TRACE_ITER_SYM_OFFSET = (1 << TRACE_ITER_SYM_OFFSET_BIT),
TRACE_ITER_SYM_ADDR = (1 << TRACE_ITER_SYM_ADDR_BIT),
TRACE_ITER_VERBOSE = (1 << TRACE_ITER_VERBOSE_BIT),
};
Then finally we can create the list of file names:
#undef C
#define C(a, b) b
static const char *trace_options[] = {
TRACE_FLAGS
NULL
};
Which creates:
static const char *trace_options[] = {
"print-parent",
"sym-offset",
"sym-addr",
"verbose",
NULL
};
The importance of this is that the strings match the bit index.
trace_options[TRACE_ITER_SYM_ADDR_BIT] == "sym-addr"

Using enums with FLAG_BIT and then defining a FLAG = (1 << FLAG_BIT), is a
bit more robust as we require that there are no bits out of order or skipped
to match the file names that represent the bits.

There was a time where the function tracing would disable interrupts unless
specifically told not to, where it would only disable preemption. With the
new lockless code, the function tracing never disalbes interrupts and just
uses disabling of preemption. Remove the option "ftrace_preempt" as it does
nothing anyway.

In order to facilitate making all tracer options visible even when the
tracer is not active, we need to get rid of duplicate options. Any option
that is shared between multiple tracers really should be a main option.
As the wakeup and irqsoff tracers both use the "display-graph" option, and
use it exactly the same way, move that option from the tracer options to the
main options and consolidate them.

__wake_up_locked_key"
This reverts commit 51360155eccb907ff8635bd10fc7de876408c2e0 and adapts
fs/userfaultfd.c to use the old version of that function.
It didn't look robust to call __wake_up_common with "nr == 1" when we
absolutely require wakeall semantics, but we've full control of what we
insert in the two waitqueue heads of the blocked userfaults. No
exclusive waitqueue risks to be inserted into those two waitqueue heads
so we can as well stick to "nr == 1" of the old code and we can rely
purely on the fact no waitqueue inserted in one of the two waitqueue
heads we must enforce as wakeall, has wait->flags WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE set.

cgroup_update_dfl_csses() is responsible for migrating processes when
controllers are enabled or disabled on the default hierarchy. As the
css association changes for all the processes in the affected cgroups,
this involves migrating multiple processes.
Up until now, it was implemented by migrating process-by-process until
the source css_sets are empty; however, this means that if a process
fails to migrate after some succeed before it, the recovery is very
tricky. This was considered okay as subsystems weren't allowed to
reject process migration on the default hierarchy; unfortunately,
enforcing this policy turned out to be problematic for certain types
of resources - realtime slices for now.
As such, the default hierarchy is gonna allow restricted failures
during migration and to support that this patch makes
cgroup_update_dfl_csses() migrate all target processes atomically
rather than one-by-one. The preceding patches made subsystems ready
for multi-process migration and factored out taskset operations making
this almost trivial. All tasks of the target processes are put in the
same taskset and the migration operations are performed once which
either fails or succeeds for all.

Currently, cgroup_migreate() implements large part of the migration
logic inline including building the target taskset and actually
migrating them. This patch separates out the following taskset
operations.
CGROUP_TASKSET_INIT() : taskset initializer
cgroup_taskset_add() : add a task to a taskset
cgroup_taskset_migrate() : migrate a taskset to the destination cgroup
This will be used to implement atomic multi-process migration in
cgroup_update_dfl_csses(). This is pure reorganization which doesn't
introduce any functional changes.

while cgroup_task_migrate() has the destination cset as the last.

It wasn't explicitly documented but, when a process is being migrated,
cpuset and memcg depend on cgroup_taskset_first() returning the
threadgroup leader; however, this approach is somewhat ghetto and
would no longer work for the planned multi-process migration.
This patch introduces explicit cgroup_taskset_for_each_leader() which
iterates over only the threadgroup leaders and replaces
cgroup_taskset_first() usages for accessing the leader with it.
This prepares both memcg and cpuset for multi-process migration. This
patch also updates the documentation for cgroup_taskset_for_each() to
clarify the iteration rules and removes comments mentioning task
ordering in tasksets.
v2: A previous patch which added threadgroup leader test was dropped.
Patch updated accordingly.

If memory_migrate flag is set, cpuset migrates memory according to the
destnation css's nodemask. The current implementation migrates memory
whenever any thread of a process is migrated making the behavior
somewhat arbitrary. Let's tie memory operations to the threadgroup
leader so that memory is migrated only when the leader is migrated.
While this is a behavior change, given the inherent fuziness, this
change is not too likely to be noticed and allows us to clearly define
who owns the memory (always the leader) and helps the planned atomic
multi-process migration.
Note that we're currently migrating memory in migration path proper
while holding all the locks. In the long term, this should be moved
out to an async work item.

futex_hash() references two global variables: the base pointer
futex_queues and the size of the array futex_hashsize. The latter is
marked __read_mostly, while the former is not, so they are likely to
end up very far from each other. This means that futex_hash() is
likely to encounter two cache misses.
We could mark futex_queues as __read_mostly as well, but that doesn't
guarantee they'll end up next to each other (and even if they do, they
may still end up in different cache lines). So put the two variables
in a small singleton struct with sufficient alignment and mark that as
__read_mostly.

Force threading of interrupts does not really deal with interrupts
which are requested with a primary and a threaded handler. The current
policy is to leave them alone and let the primary handler run in
interrupt context, but we set the ONESHOT flag for those interrupts as
well.
Kohji Okuno debugged a problem with the SDHCI driver where the
interrupt thread waits for a hardware interrupt to trigger, which can't
work well because the hardware interrupt is masked due to the ONESHOT
flag being set. He proposed to set the ONESHOT flag only if the
interrupt does not provide a thread handler.
Though that does not work either because these interrupts can be
shared. So the other interrupt would rightfully get the ONESHOT flag
set and therefor the same situation would happen again.
To deal with this proper, we need to force thread the primary handler
of such interrupts as well. That means that the primary interrupt
handler is treated as any other primary interrupt handler which is not
marked IRQF_NO_THREAD. The threaded handler becomes a separate thread
so the SDHCI flow logic can be handled gracefully.
The same issue was reported against 4.1-rt.

Pull cgroup fixes from Tejun Heo:
"The threadgroup locking changes which went in during 4.2 devel cycle
added write locking of a percpu_rwsem in cgroup task migration path;
unfortunately, that involved expedited rcu syncing which turned out to
be too slow and heavy for certain workloads. The patchset which is
dependent on this one didn't get committed during that devel cycle, so
these two patches can be reverted safely.
Oleg reworked percpu_rwsem for 4.4 so that the writer path is a lot
lighter. The reported issue goes away with Oleg's reworked
percpu_rwsem and I'll reapply these patches on the for-4.4 branch so
that they can land together with Oleg's changes"
* 'for-4.3-fixes' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/cgroup:
Revert "sched, cgroup: replace signal_struct->group_rwsem with a global percpu_rwsem"
Revert "cgroup: simplify threadgroup locking"

This commit converts the rcu_data structure's ->cpu_no_qs field
to a union. The bytewise side of this union allows individual access
to indications as to whether this CPU needs to find a quiescent state
for a normal (.norm) and/or expedited (.exp) grace period. The setwise
side of the union allows testing whether or not a quiescent state is
needed at all, for either type of grace period.
For now, only .norm is used. A later commit will introduce the expedited
usage.

This commit inverts the sense of the rcu_data structure's ->passed_quiesce
field and renames it to ->cpu_no_qs. This will allow a later commit to
use an "aggregate OR" operation to test expedited as well as normal grace
periods without added overhead.

An upcoming commit needs to invert the sense of the ->passed_quiesce
rcu_data structure field, so this commit is taking this opportunity
to clarify things a bit by renaming ->qs_pending to ->core_needs_qs.
So if !rdp->core_needs_qs, then this CPU need not concern itself with
quiescent states, in particular, it need not acquire its leaf rcu_node
structure's ->lock to check. Otherwise, it needs to report the next
quiescent state.

Currently, synchronize_sched_expedited() uses a single global counter
to track the number of remaining context switches that the current
expedited grace period must wait on. This is problematic on large
systems, where the resulting memory contention can be pathological.
This commit therefore makes synchronize_sched_expedited() instead use
the combining tree in the same manner as synchronize_rcu_expedited(),
keeping memory contention down to a dull roar.
This commit creates a temporary function sync_sched_exp_select_cpus()
that is very similar to sync_rcu_exp_select_cpus(). A later commit
will consolidate these two functions, which becomes possible when
synchronize_sched_expedited() switches from stop_one_cpu_nowait() to
smp_call_function_single().

The current preemptible-RCU expedited grace-period algorithm invokes
synchronize_sched_expedited() to enqueue all tasks currently running
in a preemptible-RCU read-side critical section, then waits for all the
->blkd_tasks lists to drain. This works, but results in both an IPI and
a double context switch even on CPUs that do not happen to be running
in a preemptible RCU read-side critical section.
This commit implements a new algorithm that causes less OS jitter.
This new algorithm IPIs all online CPUs that are not idle (from an
RCU perspective), but refrains from self-IPIs. If a CPU receiving
this IPI is not in a preemptible RCU read-side critical section (or
is just now exiting one), it pushes quiescence up the rcu_node tree,
otherwise, it sets a flag that will be handled by the upcoming outermost
rcu_read_unlock(), which will then push quiescence up the tree.
The expedited grace period must of course wait on any pre-existing blocked
readers, and newly blocked readers must be queued carefully based on
the state of both the normal and the expedited grace periods. This
new queueing approach also avoids the need to update boost state,
courtesy of the fact that blocked tasks are no longer ever migrated to
the root rcu_node structure.

This commit replaces sync_rcu_preempt_exp_init1(() and
sync_rcu_preempt_exp_init2() with sync_exp_reset_tree_hotplug()
and sync_exp_reset_tree(), which will also be used by
synchronize_sched_expedited(), and sync_rcu_exp_select_nodes(), which
contains code specific to synchronize_rcu_expedited().

This is a nearly pure code-movement commit, moving rcu_report_exp_rnp(),
sync_rcu_preempt_exp_done(), and rcu_preempted_readers_exp() so
that later commits can make synchronize_sched_expedited() use them.
The non-code-movement portion of this commit tags rcu_report_exp_rnp()
as __maybe_unused to avoid build errors when CONFIG_PREEMPT=n.
