With PREEMPT_RCU=n, cond_resched() provides urgently needed quiescent
states for read-side critical sections via rcu_all_qs().
One reason why this was needed: lacking preempt-count, the tick
handler has no way of knowing whether it is executing in a
read-side critical section or not.
With (PREEMPT_LAZY=y, PREEMPT_DYNAMIC=n), we get (PREEMPT_COUNT=y,
PREEMPT_RCU=n). In this configuration cond_resched() is a stub and
does not provide quiescent states via rcu_all_qs().
(PREEMPT_RCU=y provides this information via rcu_read_unlock() and
its nesting counter.)
So, use the availability of preempt_count() to report quiescent states
in rcu_flavor_sched_clock_irq().

rcu_read_unlock_strict() can be called with preemption enabled
which can make for an unstable rdp and a racy norm value.
Fix this by dropping the preempt-count in __rcu_read_unlock()
after the call to rcu_read_unlock_strict(), adjusting the
preempt-count check appropriately.

Replace mentions of PREEMPT_AUTO with PREEMPT_LAZY.
Also, since PREMPT_LAZY implies PREEMPTION, we can reduce the
TASKS_RCU selection criteria from this:
NEED_TASKS_RCU && (PREEMPTION || PREEMPT_AUTO)
to this:
NEED_TASKS_RCU && PREEMPTION

RCU has been special-casing callback function pointers that are integers
lower than 4096 as offsets of rcu_head for kvfree() instead. The tree
RCU implementation no longer does that as the batched kvfree_rcu() is
not a simple call_rcu(). The tiny RCU still does, and the plan is also
to make tree RCU use call_rcu() for SLUB_TINY configurations.
Instead of teaching tree RCU again to special case the offsets, let's
remove the special casing completely. Since there's no SLOB anymore, it
is possible to create a callback function that can take a pointer to a
middle of slab object with unknown offset and determine the object's
pointer before freeing it, so implement that as kvfree_rcu_cb().
Large kmalloc and vmalloc allocations are handled simply by aligning
down to page size. For that we retain the requirement that the offset is
smaller than 4096. But we can remove __is_kvfree_rcu_offset() completely
and instead just opencode the condition in the BUILD_BUG_ON() check.

Following the move of TREE_RCU implementation, let's move also the
TINY_RCU one for consistency and subsequent refactoring.
For simplicity, remove the separate inline __kvfree_call_rcu() as
TINY_RCU is not meant for high-performance hardware anyway.
Declare kvfree_call_rcu() in rcupdate.h to avoid header dependency
issues.
Also move the kvfree_rcu_barrier() declaration to slab.h

There is one access to the per-CPU rdp->gpwrap field in the
__note_gp_changes() function that does not use READ_ONCE(), but all other
accesses do use READ_ONCE(). When using the 8*TREE03 and CONFIG_NR_CPUS=8
configuration, KCSAN found no data races at that point. This is because
all calls to __note_gp_changes() hold rnp->lock, which excludes writes
to the rdp->gpwrap fields for all CPUs associated with that same leaf
rcu_node structure.
This commit therefore removes READ_ONCE() from rdp->gpwrap accesses
within the __note_gp_changes() function.

Pull kthread updates from Frederic Weisbecker:
"Kthreads affinity follow either of 4 existing different patterns:
1) Per-CPU kthreads must stay affine to a single CPU and never
execute relevant code on any other CPU. This is currently handled
by smpboot code which takes care of CPU-hotplug operations.
Affinity here is a correctness constraint.
2) Some kthreads _have_ to be affine to a specific set of CPUs and
can't run anywhere else. The affinity is set through
kthread_bind_mask() and the subsystem takes care by itself to
handle CPU-hotplug operations. Affinity here is assumed to be a
correctness constraint.
3) Per-node kthreads _prefer_ to be affine to a specific NUMA node.
This is not a correctness constraint but merely a preference in
terms of memory locality. kswapd and kcompactd both fall into this
category. The affinity is set manually like for any other task and
CPU-hotplug is supposed to be handled by the relevant subsystem so
that the task is properly reaffined whenever a given CPU from the
node comes up. Also care should be taken so that the node affinity
doesn't cross isolated (nohz_full) cpumask boundaries.
4) Similar to the previous point except kthreads have a _preferred_
affinity different than a node. Both RCU boost kthreads and RCU
exp kworkers fall into this category as they refer to "RCU nodes"
from a distinctly distributed tree.
Currently the preferred affinity patterns (3 and 4) have at least 4
identified users, with more or less success when it comes to handle
CPU-hotplug operations and CPU isolation. Each of which do it in its
own ad-hoc way.
This is an infrastructure proposal to handle this with the following
API changes:
- kthread_create_on_node() automatically affines the created kthread
to its target node unless it has been set as per-cpu or bound with
kthread_bind[_mask]() before the first wake-up.
- kthread_affine_preferred() is a new function that can be called
right after kthread_create_on_node() to specify a preferred
affinity different than the specified node.
When the preferred affinity can't be applied because the possible
targets are offline or isolated (nohz_full), the kthread is affine to
the housekeeping CPUs (which means to all online CPUs most of the time
or only the non-nohz_full CPUs when nohz_full= is set).
kswapd, kcompactd, RCU boost kthreads and RCU exp kworkers have been
converted, along with a few old drivers.
Summary of the changes:
- Consolidate a bunch of ad-hoc implementations of
kthread_run_on_cpu()
- Introduce task_cpu_fallback_mask() that defines the default last
resort affinity of a task to become nohz_full aware
- Add some correctness check to ensure kthread_bind() is always
called before the first kthread wake up.
- Default affine kthread to its preferred node.
- Convert kswapd / kcompactd and remove their halfway working ad-hoc
affinity implementation
- Implement kthreads preferred affinity
- Unify kthread worker and kthread API's style
- Convert RCU kthreads to the new API and remove the ad-hoc affinity
implementation"

kasan_record_aux_stack_noalloc() was introduced to record a stack trace
without allocating memory in the process. It has been added to callers
which were invoked while a raw_spinlock_t was held. More and more callers
were identified and changed over time. Is it a good thing to have this
while functions try their best to do a locklessly setup? The only
downside of having kasan_record_aux_stack() not allocate any memory is
that we end up without a stacktrace if stackdepot runs out of memory and
at the same stacktrace was not recorded before To quote Marco Elver from
https://lore.kernel.org/all/CANpmjNPmQYJ7pv1N3cuU8cP18u7PP_uoZD8YxwZd4jtbof9nVQ@mail.gmail.com/
| I'd be in favor, it simplifies things. And stack depot should be
| able to replenish its pool sufficiently in the "non-aux" cases
| i.e. regular allocations. Worst case we fail to record some
| aux stacks, but I think that's only really bad if there's a bug
| around one of these allocations. In general the probabilities
| of this being a regression are extremely small [...]
Make the kasan_record_aux_stack_noalloc() behaviour default as
kasan_record_aux_stack().

Move kvfree_rcu() functionality to the slab_common.c file.
The reason to have kvfree_rcu() functionality as part of SLAB is that
there is a clear trend and need of closer integration. One of the recent
example is creating a barrier function for SLAB caches.
Another reason is to prevent of having several implementations of RCU
machinery for reclaiming objects after a GP. As future steps, it can be
more integrated(easier) with SLAB internals.

Currently when a tiny RCU is enabled, the tree.c file is not
compiled, thus duplicating function names do not conflict with
each other.
Because of moving of kvfree_rcu() functionality to the SLAB,
we have to reorder some functions and place them together under
CONFIG_TINY_RCU macro definition. Therefore, those functions name
will not conflict when a kernel is compiled for CONFIG_TINY_RCU
flavor.

For such purpose a kfree_rcu_batch_init() is renamed to a kvfree_rcu_init()
and it is invoked from the main.c right after rcu_init() is done.

kthread_create() creates a kthread without running it yet. kthread_run()
creates a kthread and runs it.
On the other hand, kthread_create_worker() creates a kthread worker and
runs it.
This difference in behaviours is confusing. Also there is no way to
create a kthread worker and affine it using kthread_bind_mask() or
kthread_affine_preferred() before starting it.
Consolidate the behaviours and introduce kthread_run_worker[_on_cpu]()
that behaves just like kthread_run(). kthread_create_worker[_on_cpu]()
will now only create a kthread worker without starting it.

fact that it will be non-negative, and does the same for the underlying

Although the non-preemptible implementation of rcu_exp_handler()
contains checks to enforce idempotency, the preemptible version does not.
The reason for this omission is that in preemptible kernels, there is
no reporting of quiescent states from CPU hotplug notifiers, and thus
no need for idempotency.
In theory, anyway.
In practice, accidents happen. This commit therefore adds checks under
WARN_ON_ONCE() to catch any such accidents.

Currently, the preemptible implementation of rcu_exp_handler()
almost open-codes rcu_exp_need_qs(). A call to that function would be
shorter and would improve expediting in cases where rcu_exp_handler()
interrupted a preemption-disabled or bh-disabled region of code.
This commit therefore moves rcu_exp_need_qs() out of the non-preemptible
leg of the enclosing #ifdef and replaces the open coding in preemptible
rcu_exp_handler() with a call to rcu_exp_need_qs().

This commit reduces the state space of rcu_report_exp_rdp() by moving
the setting of ->cpu_no_qs.b.exp under the rcu_node structure's ->lock.
The lock isn't really all that important here, given that this per-CPU
field is supposed to be written only by its CPU, but the disabling of
interrupts excludes things like rcu_exp_handler(), which also can write
to this same field. Avoiding this sort of interleaved access reduces
the state space.

There is a hard-to-trigger bug in the expedited grace-period computation
whose fix requires that the __sync_rcu_exp_select_node_cpus() function
to check that the grace-period sequence number has not changed before
invoking rcu_report_exp_cpu_mult(). However, this check must be done
while holding the leaf rcu_node structure's ->lock.
This commit therefore prepares for that fix by moving this lock's
acquisition from rcu_report_exp_cpu_mult() to its callers (all two
of them).

Currently, rcutorture_one_extend() reads the CPU ID before making any
change to the type of RCU reader. This can be confusing because the
properties of the code from which the CPU ID is read are not that of
the reader segment that this same CPU ID is listed with.
This commit therefore causes rcutorture_one_extend() to read the CPU
ID just after the new protections have been added, but before the old
protections have been removed. With this change in place, all of the
protections of a given reader segment apply from the reading of one CPU ID
to the reading of the next. This change therefore also allows a single
read of the CPU ID to work for both the old and the new reader segment.
And this dual use of a single read of the CPU ID avoids inflicting any
additional to heisenbugs.

This commit adds rcutorture module parameters gp_cond_wi, gp_cond_wi_exp,
gp_poll_wi, and gp_poll_wi_exp to control the wait interval for
conditional, conditional expedited, polled, and polled expedited grace
periods, respectively. When rcu_torture_writer() is testing these types
of grace periods, hrtimers are used to randomly wait up to the specified
number of microseconds, but with nanosecond granularity.
In the case of conditional grace periods (get_state_synchronize_rcu()
and cond_synchronize_rcu(), for example) there is just one
wait. For polled grace periods (start_poll_synchronize_rcu() and
poll_state_synchronize_rcu(), for example), there is a repeated series
of waits until the grace period ends.
For normal grace periods, the default is 16 jiffies (for example, 16,000
microseconds on a HZ=1000 system) and for expedited grace periods the
default is 128 microseconds.

Use of the rcutorture preempt_duration and the default-on fwd_progress
kernel parameters can result in preemption of callback processing during
forward-progress testing, which is an excellent way to OOM your test
if your kernel offloads RCU callbacks. This commit therefore treats
preempt_duration in the same way as stall_cpu in CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=y
kernels, prohibiting fwd_progress testing and splatting when rcutorture
is built in (as opposed to being a loadable module).

new reader states by the existing rcutorture_one_extend() function.
These checks have proven to be rather heavyweight, reducing reproduction
rate of some failures by a factor of two. They are therefore hidden

The purpose of the "busted" torture type is to test rcutorture code paths
used only when a too-short grace period is detected. Currently, "busted"
only uses normal rcu_read_lock()-style readers, which fails to exercise
much of the "Failure/close-call rcutorture reader segments" functionality.
This commit therefore sets the .extendables field of rcu_busted_ops to
RCUTORTURE_MAX_EXTEND in order to more fully exercise the reporting.

The rcu_torture_writer() polling currently uses timeouts ranging from
zero to 16 milliseconds to wait for the polled grace period to end.
This works, but it would be better to have a higher probability of

This commit adds CPU number to the "Failure/close-call rcutorture reader
segments" list printed at the end of an rcutorture run that had too-short
grace periods. This information can help debugging interactions with
migration and CPU hotplug.
However, experience indicates that sampling the CPU number in rcutorture's
read-side code can reduce the probability of too-short bugs by a small
integer factor. And small integer factors are crucial to RCU bug hunting,
so this commit also introduces a default-off RCU_TORTURE_TEST_LOG_CPU
Kconfig option to enable this CPU-number-logging functionality at
build time.

Current use cases of torture_sched_setaffinity() are well served by its
