Paul E. McKenney a096932f0c rcu: Don't activate RCU core on NO_HZ_FULL CPUs
Whenever a CPU receives a scheduling-clock interrupt, RCU checks to see
if the RCU core needs anything from this CPU.  If so, RCU raises
RCU_SOFTIRQ to carry out any needed processing.

This approach has worked well historically, but it is undesirable on
NO_HZ_FULL CPUs.  Such CPUs are expected to spend almost all of their time
in userspace, so that scheduling-clock interrupts can be disabled while
there is only one runnable task on the CPU in question.  Unfortunately,
raising any softirq has the potential to wake up ksoftirqd, which would
provide the second runnable task on that CPU, preventing disabling of
scheduling-clock interrupts.

What is needed instead is for RCU to leave NO_HZ_FULL CPUs alone,
relying on the grace-period kthreads' quiescent-state forcing to
do any needed RCU work on behalf of those CPUs.

This commit therefore refrains from raising RCU_SOFTIRQ on any
NO_HZ_FULL CPUs during any grace periods that have been in effect
for less than one second.  The one-second limit handles the case
where an inappropriate workload is running on a NO_HZ_FULL CPU
that features lots of scheduling-clock interrupts, but no idle
or userspace time.

Lai Jiangshan 79a62f957e rcu: Warn on allegedly impossible rcu_read_unlock_special() from irq
After commit #10f39bb1b2c1 (rcu: protect __rcu_read_unlock() against
scheduler-using irq handlers), it is no longer possible to enter
the main body of rcu_read_lock_special() from an NMI, interrupt, or
softirq handler.  In theory, this implies that the check for "in_irq()
|| in_serving_softirq()" must always fail, so that in theory this check
could be removed entirely.

In practice, this commit wraps this condition with a WARN_ON_ONCE().
If this warning never triggers, then the condition will be removed
entirely.

[ paulmck: And one way of triggering the WARN_ON() is if a scheduling
  clock interrupt occurs in an RCU read-side critical section, setting
  RCU_READ_UNLOCK_NEED_QS, which is handled by rcu_read_unlock_special().
  Updated this commit to return if only that bit was set. ]

Paul E. McKenney 24ef659a85 rcu: Provide better diagnostics for blocking in RCU callback functions
Currently blocking in an RCU callback function will result in
"scheduling while atomic", which could be triggered for any number
of reasons.  To aid debugging, this patch introduces a rcu_callback_map
that is used to tie the inappropriate voluntary context switch back
to the fact that the function is being invoked from within a callback.

Paul E. McKenney 04f34650ca rcu: Fix CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT_EXACT for odd fanout/leaf values
Each element of the rcu_state structure's ->levelspread[] array
is intended to contain the per-level fanout, where the zero-th
element corresponds to the root of the rcu_node tree, and the last
element corresponds to the leaves.  In the CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT_EXACT
case, this means that the last element should be filled in
from CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT_LEAF (or from the rcu_fanout_leaf boot
parameter, if provided) and that the remaining elements should
be filled in from CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT.  Unfortunately, the current
code in rcu_init_levelspread() takes the opposite approach, placing
CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT_LEAF in the zero-th element and CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT in
the remaining elements.

For typical power-of-two values, this generates odd but functional
rcu_node trees.  However, other values, for example CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT=3
and CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT_LEAF=2, generate trees that can leave some CPUs
out of the grace-period computation, resulting in too-short grace periods
and therefore a broken RCU implementation.

This commit therefore fixes rcu_init_levelspread() to set the last
->levelspread[] array element from CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT_LEAF and the
remaining elements from CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT, thus generating the
intended rcu_node trees.

The underlying problem is that perf is invoking call_rcu() with the
scheduler locks held, but in NOCB mode, call_rcu() will with high
probability invoke the scheduler -- which just might want to use its
locks.  The reason that call_rcu() needs to invoke the scheduler is
to wake up the corresponding rcuo callback-offload kthread, which
does the job of starting up a grace period and invoking the callbacks
afterwards.

One solution (championed on a related problem by Lai Jiangshan) is to
simply defer the wakeup to some point where scheduler locks are no longer
held.  Since we don't want to unnecessarily incur the cost of such
deferral, the task before us is threefold:

1.	Determine when it is likely that a relevant scheduler lock is held.

2.	Defer the wakeup in such cases.

3.	Ensure that all deferred wakeups eventually happen, preferably
	sooner rather than later.

We use irqs_disabled_flags() as a proxy for relevant scheduler locks
being held.  This works because the relevant locks are always acquired
with interrupts disabled.  We may defer more often than needed, but that
is at least safe.

The wakeup deferral is tracked via a new field in the per-CPU and
per-RCU-flavor rcu_data structure, namely ->nocb_defer_wakeup.

This flag is checked by the RCU core processing.  The __rcu_pending()
function now checks this flag, which causes rcu_check_callbacks()
to initiate RCU core processing at each scheduling-clock interrupt
where this flag is set.  Of course this is not sufficient because
scheduling-clock interrupts are often turned off (the things we used to
be able to count on!).  So the flags are also checked on entry to any
state that RCU considers to be idle, which includes both NO_HZ_IDLE idle
state and NO_HZ_FULL user-mode-execution state.

This approach should allow call_rcu() to be invoked regardless of what
locks you might be holding, the key word being "should".

Paul E. McKenney 78e4bc34e5 rcu: Fix and comment ordering around wait_event()
It is all too easy to forget that wait_event() does not necessarily
imply a full memory barrier.  The case where it does not is where the
condition transitions to true just as wait_event() starts execution.
This is actually a feature: The standard use of wait_event() involves
locking, in which case the locks provide the needed ordering (you hold a
lock across the wake_up() and acquire that same lock after wait_event()
returns).

Given that I did forget that wait_event() does not necessarily imply a
full memory barrier in one case, this commit fixes that case.  This commit
also adds comments calling out the placement of existing memory barriers
relied on by wait_event() calls.

Paul E. McKenney 6193c76aba rcu: Kick CPU halfway to RCU CPU stall warning
When an RCU CPU stall warning occurs, the CPU invokes resched_cpu() on
itself.  This can help move the grace period forward in some situations,
but it would be even better to do this -before- the RCU CPU stall warning.
This commit therefore causes resched_cpu() to be called every five jiffies
once the system is halfway to an RCU CPU stall warning.

Thomas Gleixner d689fe222a NOHZ: Check for nohz active instead of nohz enabled
RCU and the fine grained idle time accounting functions check
tick_nohz_enabled. But that variable is merily telling that NOHZ has
been enabled in the config and not been disabled on the command line.

But it does not tell anything about nohz being active. That's what all
this should check for.

Matthew reported, that the idle accounting on his old P1 machine
showed bogus values, when he enabled NOHZ in the config and did not
disable it on the kernel command line. The reason is that his machine
uses (refined) jiffies as a clocksource which explains why the "fine"
grained accounting went into lala land, because it depends on when the
system goes and leaves idle relative to the jiffies increment.

Provide a tick_nohz_active indicator and let RCU and the accounting
code use this instead of tick_nohz_enable.

 graph tracer and not trace particular functions and their call chain.
 
 Tom Zanussi added some updates to the ftrace multibuffer tracing that
 made it more consistent with the top level tracing.
 
 One of the fixes for perf function tracing required an API change in
 RCU; the addition of "rcu_is_watching()". As Paul McKenney is pushing
 that change in this release too, he gave me a branch that included
 all the changes to get that working, and I pulled that into my tree
