Linus Torvalds bd0f9b356d sched/headers: fix up header file dependency on <linux/sched/signal.h>
The scheduler header file split and cleanups ended up exposing a few
nasty header file dependencies, and in particular it showed how we in
<linux/wait.h> ended up depending on "signal_pending()", which now comes
from <linux/sched/signal.h>.

That's a very subtle and annoying dependency, which already caused a
semantic merge conflict (see commit e58bc92783 "Pull overlayfs updates
from Miklos Szeredi", which added that fixup in the merge commit).

It turns out that we can avoid this dependency _and_ improve code
generation by moving the guts of the fairly nasty helper #define
__wait_event_interruptible_locked() to out-of-line code.  The code that
includes the signal_pending() check is all in the slow-path where we
actually go to sleep waiting for the event anyway, so using a helper
function is the right thing to do.

Using a helper function is also what we already did for the non-locked
versions, see the "__wait_event*()" macros and the "prepare_to_wait*()"
set of helper functions.

We might want to try to unify all these macro games, we have a _lot_ of
subtly different wait-event loops.  But this is the minimal patch to fix
the annoying header dependency.

Ingo Molnar b17b01533b sched/headers: Prepare for new header dependencies before moving code to <linux/sched/debug.h>
We are going to split <linux/sched/debug.h> out of <linux/sched.h>, which
will have to be picked up from other headers and a couple of .c files.

Create a trivial placeholder <linux/sched/debug.h> file that just
maps to <linux/sched.h> to make this patch obviously correct and
bisectable.

Include the new header in the files that are going to need it.

Linus Torvalds 9dcb8b685f mm: remove per-zone hashtable of bitlock waitqueues
The per-zone waitqueues exist because of a scalability issue with the
page waitqueues on some NUMA machines, but it turns out that they hurt
normal loads, and now with the vmalloced stacks they also end up
breaking gfs2 that uses a bit_wait on a stack object:

     wait_on_bit(&gh->gh_iflags, HIF_WAIT, TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE)

where 'gh' can be a reference to the local variable 'mount_gh' on the
stack of fill_super().

The reason the per-zone hash table breaks for this case is that there is
no "zone" for virtual allocations, and trying to look up the physical
page to get at it will fail (with a BUG_ON()).

It turns out that I actually complained to the mm people about the
per-zone hash table for another reason just a month ago: the zone lookup
also hurts the regular use of "unlock_page()" a lot, because the zone
lookup ends up forcing several unnecessary cache misses and generates
horrible code.

As part of that earlier discussion, we had a much better solution for
the NUMA scalability issue - by just making the page lock have a
separate contention bit, the waitqueue doesn't even have to be looked at
for the normal case.

Peter Zijlstra already has a patch for that, but let's see if anybody
even notices.  In the meantime, let's fix the actual gfs2 breakage by
simplifying the bitlock waitqueues and removing the per-zone issue.

Oleg Nesterov 0176beaffb sched/wait: Introduce init_wait_entry()
The partial initialization of wait_queue_t in prepare_to_wait_event() looks
ugly. This was done to shrink .text, but we can simply add the new helper
which does the full initialization and shrink the compiled code a bit more.

And. This way prepare_to_wait_event() can have more users. In particular we
are ready to remove the signal_pending_state() checks from wait_bit_action_f
helpers and change __wait_on_bit_lock() to use prepare_to_wait_event().

Oleg Nesterov 38a3e1fc1d sched/wait: Fix abort_exclusive_wait(), it should pass TASK_NORMAL to wake_up()
Otherwise this logic only works if mode is "compatible" with another
exclusive waiter.

If some wq has both TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE waiters,
abort_exclusive_wait() won't wait an uninterruptible waiter.

The main user is __wait_on_bit_lock() and currently it is fine but only
because TASK_KILLABLE includes TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE and we do not have
lock_page_interruptible() yet.

Just use TASK_NORMAL and remove the "mode" arg from abort_exclusive_wait().
Yes, this means that (say) wake_up_interruptible() can wake up the non-
interruptible waiter(s), but I think this is fine. And in fact I think
that abort_exclusive_wait() must die, see the next change.

Peter Zijlstra dfd01f0260 sched/wait: Fix the signal handling fix
Jan Stancek reported that I wrecked things for him by fixing things for
Vladimir :/

His report was due to an UNINTERRUPTIBLE wait getting -EINTR, which
should not be possible, however my previous patch made this possible by
unconditionally checking signal_pending().

We cannot use current->state as was done previously, because the
instruction after the store to that variable it can be changed.  We must
instead pass the initial state along and use that.

Andrea Arcangeli ac5be6b47e userfaultfd: revert "userfaultfd: waitqueue: add nr wake parameter to __wake_up_locked_key"
This reverts commit 51360155ec 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.

NeilBrown cbbce82209 SCHED: add some "wait..on_bit...timeout()" interfaces.
In commit c1221321b7
   sched: Allow wait_on_bit_action() functions to support a timeout

I suggested that a "wait_on_bit_timeout()" interface would not meet my
need.  This isn't true - I was just over-engineering.

Including a 'private' field in wait_bit_key instead of a focused
"timeout" field was just premature generalization.  If some other
use is ever found, it can be generalized or added later.

So this patch renames "private" to "timeout" with a meaning "stop
waiting when "jiffies" reaches or passes "timeout",
and adds two of the many possible wait..bit..timeout() interfaces:

wait_on_page_bit_killable_timeout(), which is the one I want to use,
and out_of_line_wait_on_bit_timeout() which is a reasonably general
example.  Others can be added as needed.

NeilBrown c1221321b7 sched: Allow wait_on_bit_action() functions to support a timeout
It is currently not possible for various wait_on_bit functions
to implement a timeout.

While the "action" function that is called to do the waiting
could certainly use schedule_timeout(), there is no way to carry
forward the remaining timeout after a false wake-up.
As false-wakeups a clearly possible at least due to possible
hash collisions in bit_waitqueue(), this is a real problem.

The 'action' function is currently passed a pointer to the word
containing the bit being waited on.  No current action functions
use this pointer.  So changing it to something else will be a
little noisy but will have no immediate effect.

This patch changes the 'action' function to take a pointer to
the "struct wait_bit_key", which contains a pointer to the word
containing the bit so nothing is really lost.

It also adds a 'private' field to "struct wait_bit_key", which
is initialized to zero.

An action function can now implement a timeout with something
like

static int timed_out_waiter(struct wait_bit_key *key)
{
	unsigned long waited;
	if (key->private == 0) {
		key->private = jiffies;
		if (key->private == 0)
			key->private -= 1;
	}
	waited = jiffies - key->private;
	if (waited > 10 * HZ)
		return -EAGAIN;
	schedule_timeout(waited - 10 * HZ);
	return 0;
}

If any other need for context in a waiter were found it would be
easy to use ->private for some other purpose, or even extend
"struct wait_bit_key".

My particular need is to support timeouts in nfs_release_page()
to avoid deadlocks with loopback mounted NFS.

While wait_on_bit_timeout() would be a cleaner interface, it
will not meet my need.  I need the timeout to be sensitive to
the state of the connection with the server, which could change.
 So I need to use an 'action' interface.

NeilBrown 743162013d sched: Remove proliferation of wait_on_bit() action functions
The current "wait_on_bit" interface requires an 'action'
function to be provided which does the actual waiting.
There are over 20 such functions, many of them identical.
Most cases can be satisfied by one of just two functions, one
which uses io_schedule() and one which just uses schedule().

So:
 Rename wait_on_bit and        wait_on_bit_lock to
        wait_on_bit_action and wait_on_bit_lock_action
 to make it explicit that they need an action function.

 Introduce new wait_on_bit{,_lock} and wait_on_bit{,_lock}_io
 which are *not* given an action function but implicitly use
 a standard one.
 The decision to error-out if a signal is pending is now made
 based on the 'mode' argument rather than being encoded in the action
 function.

 All instances of the old wait_on_bit and wait_on_bit_lock which
 can use the new version have been changed accordingly and their
 action functions have been discarded.
 wait_on_bit{_lock} does not return any specific error code in the
 event of a signal so the caller must check for non-zero and
 interpolate their own error code as appropriate.

The wait_on_bit() call in __fscache_wait_on_invalidate() was
ambiguous as it specified TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE but used
fscache_wait_bit_interruptible as an action function.
David Howells confirms this should be uniformly
"uninterruptible"

The main remaining user of wait_on_bit{,_lock}_action is NFS
which needs to use a freezer-aware schedule() call.

A comment in fs/gfs2/glock.c notes that having multiple 'action'
functions is useful as they display differently in the 'wchan'
field of 'ps'. (and /proc/$PID/wchan).
As the new bit_wait{,_io} functions are tagged "__sched", they
will not show up at all, but something higher in the stack.  So
the distinction will still be visible, only with different
function names (gds2_glock_wait versus gfs2_glock_dq_wait in the
gfs2/glock.c case).

Since first version of this patch (against 3.15) two new action
functions appeared, on in NFS and one in CIFS.  CIFS also now
uses an action function that makes the same freezer aware
schedule call as NFS.

Peter Zijlstra b4145872f7 sched: Move wait code from core.c to wait.c
For some reason only the wait part of the wait api lives in
kernel/sched/wait.c and the wake part still lives in kernel/sched/core.c;
ammend this.
