This means that any given build of the Linux kernel has only one
update-side flavor of RCU, namely RCU-preempt for CONFIG_PREEMPT=y builds
and RCU-sched for CONFIG_PREEMPT=n builds. This in turn means that kernels
built with CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=y have only one rcuo kthread per CPU.

This commit reduces the latency of expedited RCU grace periods by
reporting a quiescent state for the CPU at context-switch time.
In CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernels, if the outgoing task is still within an

period, perhaps including this expedited grace period), then that task
will already have been placed on one of the leaf rcu_node structures'
->blkd_tasks list.

One necessary step towards consolidating the three flavors of RCU is to
make sure that the resulting consolidated "one flavor to rule them all"
correctly handles networking denial-of-service attacks. One thing that
allows RCU-bh to do so is that __do_softirq() invokes rcu_bh_qs() every
so often, and so something similar has to happen for consolidated RCU.
This must be done carefully. For example, if a preemption-disabled
region of code takes an interrupt which does softirq processing before
returning, consolidated RCU must ignore the resulting rcu_bh_qs()
invocations -- preemption is still disabled, and that means an RCU
reader for the consolidated flavor.
This commit therefore creates a new rcu_softirq_qs() that is called only
from the ksoftirqd task, thus avoiding the interrupted-a-preempted-region
problem. This new rcu_softirq_qs() function invokes rcu_sched_qs(),
rcu_preempt_qs(), and rcu_preempt_deferred_qs(). The latter call handles
any deferred quiescent states.
Note that __do_softirq() still invokes rcu_bh_qs(). It will continue to
do so until a later stage of cleanup when the RCU-bh flavor is removed.

[ paulmck: Fix !SMP issue located by kbuild test robot. ]
RCU's dyntick-idle code is written to tolerate half-interrupts, that it,
either an interrupt that invokes rcu_irq_enter() but never invokes the
corresponding rcu_irq_exit() on the one hand, or an interrupt that never
invokes rcu_irq_enter() but does invoke the "corresponding" rcu_irq_exit()
on the other. These things really did happen at one time, as evidenced
by this ca-2011 LKML post:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20111014170019.GE2428@linux.vnet.ibm.com
The reason why RCU tolerates half-interrupts is that usermode helpers
used exceptions to invoke a system call from within the kernel such that
the system call did a normal return (not a return from exception) to
the calling context. This caused rcu_irq_enter() to be invoked without
a matching rcu_irq_exit(). However, usermode helpers have since been
rewritten to make much more housebroken use of workqueues, kernel threads,
and do_execve(), and therefore should no longer produce half-interrupts.
No one knows of any other source of half-interrupts, but then again,
no one seems insane enough to go audit the entire kernel to verify that
half-interrupts really are a relic of the past.
This commit therefore adds a pair of WARN_ON_ONCE() calls that will
trigger in the presence of half interrupts, which the code will continue
to handle correctly. If neither of these WARN_ON_ONCE() trigger by
mid-2021, then perhaps RCU can stop handling half-interrupts, which
would be a considerable simplification.

This commit makes the "rcu" torture type test extended read-side

This commit defers reporting of RCU-preempt quiescent states at
rcu_read_unlock_special() time when any of interrupts, softirq, or
preemption are disabled. These deferred quiescent states are reported
at a later RCU_SOFTIRQ, context switch, idle entry, or CPU-hotplug
offline operation. Of course, if another RCU read-side critical
section has started in the meantime, the reporting of the quiescent
state will be further deferred.
This also means that disabling preemption, interrupts, and/or
softirqs will act as an RCU-preempt read-side critical section.
This is enforced by checking preempt_count() as needed.
Some special cases must be handled on an ad-hoc basis, for example,
context switch is a quiescent state even though both the scheduler and
do_exit() disable preemption. In these cases, additional calls to
rcu_preempt_deferred_qs() override the preemption disabling. Similar
logic overrides disabled interrupts in rcu_preempt_check_callbacks()
because in this case the quiescent state happened just before the
corresponding scheduling-clock interrupt.
In theory, this change lifts a long-standing restriction that required
that if interrupts were disabled across a call to rcu_read_unlock()
that the matching rcu_read_lock() also be contained within that
interrupts-disabled region of code. Because the reporting of the
corresponding RCU-preempt quiescent state is now deferred until
after interrupts have been enabled, it is no longer possible for this
situation to result in deadlocks involving the scheduler's runqueue and
priority-inheritance locks. This may allow some code simplification that
might reduce interrupt latency a bit. Unfortunately, in practice this
would also defer deboosting a low-priority task that had been subjected
to RCU priority boosting, so real-time-response considerations might
well force this restriction to remain in place.
Because RCU-preempt grace periods are now blocked not only by RCU
read-side critical sections, but also by disabling of interrupts,
preemption, and softirqs, it will be possible to eliminate RCU-bh and
RCU-sched in favor of RCU-preempt in CONFIG_PREEMPT=y kernels. This may
require some additional plumbing to provide the network denial-of-service
guarantees that have been traditionally provided by RCU-bh. Once these
are in place, CONFIG_PREEMPT=n kernels will be able to fold RCU-bh
into RCU-sched. This would mean that all kernels would have but
one flavor of RCU, which would open the door to significant code
cleanup.
Moving to a single flavor of RCU would also have the beneficial effect
of reducing the NOCB kthreads by at least a factor of two.

When entering or exiting irq or NMI handlers, the current code uses
->dynticks_nmi_nesting to detect if it is in the outermost handler,
that is, the one interrupting or returning to an RCU-idle context (the
idle loop or nohz_full usermode execution). When entering the outermost
handler via an interrupt (as opposed to NMI), it is necessary to invoke
rcu_dynticks_task_exit() just before the CPU is marked non-idle from an
RCU perspective and to invoke rcu_cleanup_after_idle() just after the
CPU is marked non-idle. Similarly, when exiting the outermost handler
via an interrupt, it is necessary to invoke rcu_prepare_for_idle() just
before marking the CPU idle and to invoke rcu_dynticks_task_enter()
just after marking the CPU idle.
The decision to execute these four functions is currently taken in
rcu_irq_enter() and rcu_irq_exit() as follows:
rcu_irq_enter()
/* A conditional branch with ->dynticks_nmi_nesting */
rcu_nmi_enter()
/* A conditional branch with ->dynticks */
/* A conditional branch with ->dynticks_nmi_nesting */
rcu_irq_exit()
/* A conditional branch with ->dynticks_nmi_nesting */
rcu_nmi_exit()
/* A conditional branch with ->dynticks_nmi_nesting */
/* A conditional branch with ->dynticks_nmi_nesting */
rcu_nmi_enter()
/* A conditional branch with ->dynticks */
rcu_nmi_exit()
/* A conditional branch with ->dynticks_nmi_nesting */
This works, but the conditional branches in rcu_irq_enter() and
rcu_irq_exit() are redundant with those in rcu_nmi_enter() and
rcu_nmi_exit(), respectively. Redundant branches are not something
we want in the to/from-idle fastpaths, so this commit refactors
rcu_{nmi,irq}_{enter,exit}() so they use a common inlined function passed
a constant argument as follows:
rcu_irq_enter() inlining rcu_nmi_enter_common(irq=true)
/* A conditional branch with ->dynticks */
rcu_irq_exit() inlining rcu_nmi_exit_common(irq=true)
/* A conditional branch with ->dynticks_nmi_nesting */
rcu_nmi_enter() inlining rcu_nmi_enter_common(irq=false)
/* A conditional branch with ->dynticks */
rcu_nmi_exit() inlining rcu_nmi_exit_common(irq=false)
/* A conditional branch with ->dynticks_nmi_nesting */
The combination of the constant function argument and the inlining allows
the compiler to discard the conditionals that previously controlled
execution of rcu_dynticks_task_exit(), rcu_cleanup_after_idle(),
rcu_prepare_for_idle(), and rcu_dynticks_task_enter(). This reduces both
the to-idle and from-idle path lengths by two conditional branches each,
and improves readability as well.
This commit also changes order of execution from this:
rcu_dynticks_task_exit();
rcu_dynticks_eqs_exit();
trace_rcu_dyntick();
rcu_cleanup_after_idle();
To this:
rcu_dynticks_task_exit();
rcu_dynticks_eqs_exit();
rcu_cleanup_after_idle();
trace_rcu_dyntick();
In other words, the calls to rcu_cleanup_after_idle() and
trace_rcu_dyntick() are reversed. This has no functional effect because
the real concern is whether a given call is before or after the call to
rcu_dynticks_eqs_exit(), and this patch does not change that. Before the
call to rcu_dynticks_eqs_exit(), RCU is not yet watching the current
CPU and after that call RCU is watching.
A similar switch in calling order happens on the idle-entry path, with
similar lack of effect for the same reasons.

Pull libnvdimm memory-failure update from Dave Jiang:
"As it stands, memory_failure() gets thoroughly confused by dev_pagemap
backed mappings. The recovery code has specific enabling for several
possible page states and needs new enabling to handle poison in dax
mappings.
In order to support reliable reverse mapping of user space addresses:
1/ Add new locking in the memory_failure() rmap path to prevent races
that would typically be handled by the page lock.
2/ Since dev_pagemap pages are hidden from the page allocator and the
"compound page" accounting machinery, add a mechanism to determine
the size of the mapping that encompasses a given poisoned pfn.
3/ Given pmem errors can be repaired, change the speculatively
accessed poison protection, mce_unmap_kpfn(), to be reversible and
otherwise allow ongoing access from the kernel.
A side effect of this enabling is that MADV_HWPOISON becomes usable
for dax mappings, however the primary motivation is to allow the
system to survive userspace consumption of hardware-poison via dax.
Specifically the current behavior is:
mce: Uncorrected hardware memory error in user-access at af34214200
{1}[Hardware Error]: It has been corrected by h/w and requires no further action
mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check events logged
{1}[Hardware Error]: event severity: corrected
Memory failure: 0xaf34214: reserved kernel page still referenced by 1 users
[..]
Memory failure: 0xaf34214: recovery action for reserved kernel page: Failed
mce: Memory error not recovered
<reboot>
...and with these changes:
Injecting memory failure for pfn 0x20cb00 at process virtual address 0x7f763dd00000
Memory failure: 0x20cb00: Killing dax-pmd:5421 due to hardware memory corruption
Memory failure: 0x20cb00: recovery action for dax page: Recovered

nvdimm.git with acks from Naoya, x86/core, x86/RAS, and of course dax
folks"

This is not normally noticeable, but repeated forks are unnecessarily
expensive because they repeatedly dirty the parent page tables during
the page table copy operation.
It's trivial to just avoid write protecting the page table entry if it
was already not writable.
This patch was inspired by
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=200447
which points to an ancient "waste time re-doing fork" issue in the
presence of lots of signals.
That bug was fixed by Eric Biederman's signal handling series
culminating in commit c3ad2c3b02 ("signal: Don't restart fork when
signals come in"), but the unnecessary work for repeated forks is still
work just fixing, particularly since the fix is trivial.

At the point where r is being checked for different values, r is always
going to be equal to 2 as the previous if statements jump to end or end1
if r is not 2. Hence the assignment to err can be simplified to just
err an assignment without any checks on the value or r.

Thanks for your work in this area. I still remember the first linux
