The loop scanning the pipesummary[] array currently skips the last
element, which means that the diagnostics ignore those rarest of
situations, namely where some readers persist across more than ten
grace periods, but all other readers avoid spanning a full grace period.
This commit therefore adjusts the scan to include the last element of
this array.

Dumping a big ftrace buffer could lead to a RCU stall. So there is the
ftrace buffer and the stall information which needs to be printed. When
there is additionally a WARN_ON() which describes the reason for the ftrace
buffer dump and the WARN_ON() is executed _after_ ftrace buffer dump, the
information get lost in the middle of the RCU stall information.
Therefore print WARN_ON() message before dumping the ftrace buffer in
rcu_torture_writer().

Commit 2585014188d5 ("rcu-tasks: Be more patient for RCU Tasks
boot-time testing") fixes false positive rcu_tasks verification check
failure by repeating the test once every second until timeout using
schedule_timeout_uninterruptible().
Since rcu_tasks_verify_selft_tests() is called from do_initcalls()
as a late_initcall, this has the undesirable side effect of delaying
other late_initcall's queued after it by a second or more. Fix this by
instead using delayed_work to repeat the verification check.

The RCU-Tasks family of grace-period primitives can take some time to
complete, and the amount of time can depend on the exact hardware and
software configuration. Some configurations boot up fast enough that the
RCU-Tasks verification process gets false-positive failures. This commit
therefore allows up to 30 seconds for the grace periods to complete, with
this value adjustable downwards using the rcupdate.rcu_task_stall_timeout
kernel boot parameter.

The rcu_tasks_trace_pregp_step() function invokes cpus_read_lock() to
disable CPU hotplug, and a later call to the rcu_tasks_trace_postscan()
function invokes cpus_read_unlock() to re-enable it. This was absolutely
necessary in the past in order to protect the intervening scan of the full
tasks list, but there is no longer such a scan. This commit therefore
improves readability by moving the cpus_read_unlock() call to the end
of the rcu_tasks_trace_pregp_step() function. This commit is a pure
code-motion commit without any (intended) change in functionality.

Currently, the RCU Tasks Trace grace-period kthread IPIs each online CPU
using smp_call_function_single() in order to track any tasks currently in
RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical sections during which the corresponding
task has neither blocked nor been preempted. These IPIs are annoying
and are also not strictly necessary because any task that blocks or is
preempted within its current RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section
will be tracked on one of the per-CPU rcu_tasks_percpu structure's
->rtp_blkd_tasks list. So the only time that this is a problem is if
one of the CPUs runs through a long-duration RCU Tasks Trace read-side
critical section without a context switch.
Note that the task_call_func() function cannot help here because there is
no safe way to identify the target task. Of course, the task_call_func()
function will be very useful later, when processing the list of tasks,
but it needs to know the task.
This commit therefore creates a cpu_curr_snapshot() function that returns
a pointer the task_struct structure of some task that happened to be
running on the specified CPU more or less during the time that the
cpu_curr_snapshot() function was executing. If there was no context
switch during this time, this function will return a pointer to the
task_struct structure of the task that was running throughout. If there
was a context switch, then the outgoing task will be taken care of by
RCU's context-switch hook, and the incoming task was either already taken
care during some previous context switch, or it is not currently within an
RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section. And in this latter case, the
grace period already started, so there is no need to wait on this task.
This new cpu_curr_snapshot() function is invoked on each CPU early in
the RCU Tasks Trace grace-period processing, and the resulting tasks
are queued for later quiescent-state inspection.

This commit takes off the training wheels and relies only on scanning
currently running tasks and tasks that have blocked or been preempted
within their current RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section.
Before this commit, the time complexity of an RCU Tasks Trace grace
period is O(T), where T is the number of tasks. After this commit,
this time complexity is O(C+B), where C is the number of CPUs and B
is the number of tasks that have blocked (or been preempted) at least
once during their current RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical sections.
Of course, if all tasks have blocked (or been preempted) at least once
during their current RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical sections, this is
still O(T), but current expectations are that RCU Tasks Trace read-side
critical section will be short and that there will normally not be large
numbers of tasks blocked within such a critical section.
Dave Marchevsky kindly measured the effects of this commit on the RCU
Tasks Trace grace-period latency and the rcu_tasks_trace_kthread task's
CPU consumption per RCU Tasks Trace grace period over the course of a
fixed test, all in milliseconds:
Before After
GP latency 22.3 ms stddev > 0.1 17.0 ms stddev < 0.1
GP CPU 2.3 ms stddev 0.3 1.1 ms stddev 0.2
This was on a system with 15,000 tasks, so it is reasonable to expect
much larger savings on the systems on which this issue was first noted,
given that they sport well in excess of 100,000 tasks. CPU consumption
was measured using profiling techniques.

This commit applies the "noinstr" tag to the rcu_idle_enter() and

invoke in order to cause them to use normal assertions rather than
lockdep. In addition, within rcu_idle_exit(), the raw versions of

with lockdep in uninstrumented code.

Now that RCU scans both running tasks and tasks that have blocked within
their current RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section, there is no
need for it to scan the idle tasks. After all, an idle loop should not
be remain within an RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical section across
exit from idle, and from a BPF viewpoint, functions invoked from the
idle loop should not sleep. So only running idle tasks can be within
RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical sections.

A running task might be within an RCU Tasks Trace read-side critical
section for any length of time, but will not be placed on any of the
per-CPU rcu_tasks_percpu structure's ->rtp_blkd_tasks lists. Therefore
any RCU Tasks Trace grace-period processing that does not scan the full
task list must interact with the running tasks.
This commit therefore causes the rcu_tasks_trace_pregp_step() function
to IPI each CPU in order to place the corresponding task on the holdouts
list and to record whether or not it was in an RCU Tasks Trace read-side
critical section. Yes, it is possible to avoid adding it to that list
if it is not a reader, but that would prevent the system from remembering
that this task was in a quiescent state. Which is why the running tasks
are unconditionally added to the holdout list.

Now that tasks are not removed from the list until they have responded to
any needed request for a quiescent state, it is no longer necessary to
wait for the trc_n_readers_need_end counter to go to zero. This commit
therefore removes that waiting code.
It is therefore also no longer necessary for rcu_tasks_trace_postgp() to
do the final decrement of this counter, so that code is also removed.
This in turn means that trc_n_readers_need_end counter itself can
be removed, as can the rcu_tasks_trace_iw irq_work structure and the
rcu_read_unlock_iw() function.

This commit causes synchronous grace periods to be driven from the task
invoking synchronize_rcu_*(), allowing these functions to be invoked from
the mid-boot dead zone extending from when the scheduler was initialized
to to point that the various RCU tasks grace-period kthreads are spawned.
This change will allow the self-tests to run in a consistent manner.

This is strictly a code-motion commit that moves the
synchronize_rcu_tasks_generic() down to where it can invoke
rcu_tasks_one_gp() without the need for a forward declaration.

This commit abstracts most of the rcu_tasks_kthread() function's loop
body into a new rcu_tasks_one_gp() function. It also introduces
a new ->tasks_gp_mutex to synchronize concurrent calls to this new
rcu_tasks_one_gp() function. This commit is preparation for allowing
RCU tasks grace periods to be driven by the calling task during the
mid-boot dead zone.

It is currently up to the caller to handle stale return values from
get_state_synchronize_rcu(). If poll_state_synchronize_rcu() returned
true once, a grace period has elapsed, regardless of the fact that counter
wrap might cause some future poll_state_synchronize_rcu() invocation to
return false. For example, the caller might store a separate flag that
indicates whether some previous call to poll_state_synchronize_rcu()
determined that the relevant grace period had already ended.
This approach works, but it requires extra storage and is easy to get
wrong. This commit therefore introduces a get_completed_synchronize_rcu()
that returns a cookie that causes poll_state_synchronize_rcu() to always
return true. This already-completed cookie can be stored in place of the
cookie that previously caused poll_state_synchronize_rcu() to return true.
It can also be used to flag a given structure as not having been exposed
to readers, and thus not requiring a grace period to elapse.
This commit is in preparation for polled expedited grace periods.

Currently, poll_state_synchronize_rcu() uses rcu_seq_done() to check
whether the specified grace period has completed. However, rcu_seq_done()
does a simple comparison that reserves have of the sequence-number space
for uncompleted grace periods. This has the unfortunate side-effect
of not handling sequence-number wrap gracefully. Of course, one can
argue that if someone has already waited for half of the full range of
grace periods, they can wait for the other half, but why wait at all in
this case?
This commit therefore creates a rcu_seq_done_exact() that counts as
uncompleted only the two grace periods during which the sequence number
might have been handed out, while still being uncompleted. This way,
if sequence-number wrap happens to hit that range, at most two additional
grace periods need be waited for.
This commit is in preparation for polled expedited grace periods.

For two kernel releases now kernel/sysctl.c has been being cleaned up
slowly, since the tables were grossly long, sprinkled with tons of #ifdefs and
all this caused merge conflicts with one susbystem or another.
This tree was put together to help try to avoid conflicts with these cleanups
going on different trees at time. So nothing exciting on this pull request,
just cleanups.
I actually had this sysctl-next tree up since v5.18 but I missed sending a
pull request for it on time during the last merge window. And so these changes
have been being soaking up on sysctl-next and so linux-next for a while.
The last change was merged May 4th.
Most of the compile issues were reported by 0day and fixed.
To help avoid a conflict with bpf folks at Daniel Borkmann's request
I merged bpf-next/pr/bpf-sysctl into sysctl-next to get the effor which
moves the BPF sysctls from kernel/sysctl.c to BPF core.
Possible merge conflicts and known resolutions as per linux-next:

Merge tag 'printk-for-5.19' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/printk/linux
Pull printk updates from Petr Mladek:
- Offload writing printk() messages on consoles to per-console
kthreads.
It prevents soft-lockups when an extensive amount of messages is
printed. It was observed, for example, during boot of large systems
with a lot of peripherals like disks or network interfaces.
It prevents live-lockups that were observed, for example, when
messages about allocation failures were reported and a CPU handled
consoles instead of reclaiming the memory. It was hard to solve even
with rate limiting because it would need to take into account the
amount of messages and the speed of all consoles.
It is a must to have for real time. Otherwise, any printk() might
break latency guarantees.
The per-console kthreads allow to handle each console on its own
speed. Slow consoles do not longer slow down faster ones. And
printk() does not longer unpredictably slows down various code paths.
There are situations when the kthreads are either not available or
not reliable, for example, early boot, suspend, or panic. In these
situations, printk() uses the legacy mode and tries to handle
consoles immediately.
- Add documentation for the printk index.

Currently both expedited and regular grace period stall warnings use
a single timeout value that with units of seconds. However, recent
Android use cases problem require a sub-100-millisecond expedited RCU CPU
stall warning. Given that expedited RCU grace periods normally complete
in far less than a single millisecond, especially for small systems,
this is not unreasonable.
Therefore introduce the CONFIG_RCU_EXP_CPU_STALL_TIMEOUT kernel
configuration that defaults to 20 msec on Android and remains the same
as that of the non-expedited stall warnings otherwise. It also can be
changed in run-time via: /sys/.../parameters/rcu_exp_cpu_stall_timeout.

Commit 9c7ef4c30f12 ("srcu: Make Tree SRCU able to operate without
snp_node array") initializes the local variable sdp differently depending
on the srcu's state in srcu_gp_start(). Either way, this initialization
overwrites the value used when sdp is defined.
This commit therefore drops this pointless definition-time initialization.
Although there is no functional change, compiler code generation may
be affected.

If an SRCU reader blocks while a synchronize_srcu_expedited() waits for
that same reader, then that grace period will spawn an endless series of
workqueue handlers, consuming a full CPU. This quickly gets pointless
because consuming more CPU isn't going to make that reader get done
faster, especially if it is blocked waiting for an external event.
This commit therefore spawns at most one pair of back-to-back workqueue
handlers per expedited grace period phase, instead inserting increasing
delays as that grace period phase grows older, but capped at 10 jiffies.
In any case, if there have been at least 100 back-to-back workqueue
handlers within a single jiffy, regardless of grace period or grace-period
phase, then a one-jiffy delay is inserted.
