Remove the __read_mostly attributes from the rcu_scheduler_active
extern declarations, because these attributes are ignored for
prototypes and we'd have to include the full <linux/cache.h> header
to gain this functionally pointless attribute defined.

This commit replaces both ________p1 and _________p1 with __UNIQUE_ID(rcu),
and also adjusts the callers of the affected macros.
__UNIQUE_ID(rcu) will generate unique variable names during compilation,
which eliminates the need of ________p1 and _________p1 (both having 4
occurrences prior to the code change). This also avoids the variable
name shadowing issue, or at least makes those wishing to cause shadowing
problems work much harder to do so.
The same idea is used for the min/max macros (commit 589a978 and commit
e9092d0).

Since commit aa40c138cc ("rcu: Report QS for outermost PREEMPT=n
rcu_read_unlock() for strict GPs") the function rcu_read_unlock_strict()
is invoked by the inlined rcu_read_unlock() function. However,
rcu_read_unlock_strict() is an empty function in production kernels,
which are built with CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=n.
There is a mention of rcu_read_unlock_strict() in the BPF verifier,
but this is in a deny-list, meaning that BPF does not care whether
rcu_read_unlock_strict() is ever called.
This commit therefore provides a slight performance improvement
by hoisting the check of CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD from
rcu_read_unlock_strict() into rcu_read_unlock(), thus avoiding the
pointless call to an empty function.

KCSAN flags accesses to ->rcu_read_lock_nesting as data races, but
in the past, the overhead of marked accesses was excessive. However,
that was long ago, and much has changed since then, both in terms of
hardware and of compilers. Here is data taken on an eight-core laptop
using Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-10885H CPU @ 2.40GHz with a kernel built
using gcc version 9.3.0, with all data in nanoseconds.
Unmarked accesses (status quo), measured by three refscale runs:
Minimum reader duration: 3.286 2.851 3.395
Median reader duration: 3.698 3.531 3.4695
Maximum reader duration: 4.481 5.215 5.157
Marked accesses, also measured by three refscale runs:
Minimum reader duration: 3.501 3.677 3.580
Median reader duration: 4.053 3.723 3.895
Maximum reader duration: 7.307 4.999 5.511
This focused microbenhmark shows only sub-nanosecond differences which
are unlikely to be visible at the system level. This commit therefore
marks data-racing accesses to ->rcu_read_lock_nesting.

The deferred quiescent states resulting from the consolidation of RCU-bh
and RCU-sched into RCU means that rcu_read_unlock() will no longer attempt
to acquire scheduler locks if interrupts were disabled across that call
to rcu_read_unlock(). The cautions in the rcu_read_unlock() header
comment are therefore obsolete. This commit therefore removes them.

There are a number of places that call out the fact that preempt-disable
regions of code now act as RCU read-side critical sections, where
preempt-disable regions of code include irq-disable regions of code,
bh-disable regions of code, hardirq handlers, and NMI handlers. However,
someone relying solely on (for example) the call_rcu() header comment
might well have no idea that preempt-disable regions of code have RCU
semantics.
This commit therefore updates the header comments for
call_rcu(), synchronize_rcu(), rcu_dereference_bh_check(), and
rcu_dereference_sched_check() to call out these new(ish) forms of RCU
readers.

The xchg() and cmpxchg() functions are sometimes used to carry out RCU
updates. Unfortunately, this can result in sparse warnings for both
the old-value and new-value arguments, as well as for the return value.
The arguments can be dealt with using RCU_INITIALIZER():
old_p = xchg(&p, RCU_INITIALIZER(new_p));
But a sparse warning still remains due to assigning the __rcu pointer
returned from xchg to the (most likely) non-__rcu pointer old_p.
This commit therefore provides an unrcu_pointer() macro that strips
the __rcu. This macro can be used as follows:
old_p = unrcu_pointer(xchg(&p, RCU_INITIALIZER(new_p)));

If another lockdep report runs concurrently with an RCU lockdep report
from RCU_LOCKDEP_WARN(), the following sequence of events can occur:
1. debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled() sees that lockdep is enabled
when called from (say) synchronize_rcu().
2. Lockdep is disabled by a concurrent lockdep report.
3. debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled() evaluates its lockdep-expression
argument, for example, lock_is_held(&rcu_bh_lock_map).
4. Because lockdep is now disabled, lock_is_held() plays it safe and
returns the constant 1.
5. But in this case, the constant 1 is not safe, because invoking
synchronize_rcu() under rcu_read_lock_bh() is disallowed.
6. debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled() wrongly invokes lockdep_rcu_suspicious(),
resulting in a false-positive splat.
This commit therefore changes RCU_LOCKDEP_WARN() to check
debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled() after checking the lockdep expression,
so that any "safe" returns from lock_is_held() are rejected by
debug_lockdep_rcu_enabled(). This requires memory ordering, which is
supplied by READ_ONCE(debug_locks). The resulting volatile accesses
prevent the compiler from reordering and the fact that only one variable
is being accessed prevents the underlying hardware from reordering.
The combination works for IA64, which can reorder reads to the same
location, but this is defeated by the volatile accesses, which compile
to load instructions that provide ordering.

After commit 5130b8fd06 ("rcu: Introduce kfree_rcu() single-argument macro"),
kernel-doc now emits two warnings:
./include/linux/rcupdate.h:884: warning: Excess function parameter 'ptr' description in 'kfree_rcu'
./include/linux/rcupdate.h:884: warning: Excess function parameter 'rhf' description in 'kfree_rcu'
This commit added some macro magic in order to call two different versions
of kfree_rcu(), the first having just one argument and the second having
two arguments. That makes it difficult to document the kfree_rcu() arguments
in the docboook header.
In order to make clearer that this macro accepts optional arguments,
this commit uses macro concatenation so that this macro changes from:
#define kfree_rcu kvfree_rcu
to:
#define kfree_rcu(ptr, rhf...) kvfree_rcu(ptr, ## rhf)
That not only helps kernel-doc understand the macro arguments, but also
provides a better C definition that makes clearer that the first argument
is mandatory and the second one is optional.

- Core scheduler updates:
- Add CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC: this in its current form adds the
preempt=none/voluntary/full boot options (default: full),
to allow distros to build a PREEMPT kernel but fall back to
close to PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY (or PREEMPT_NONE) runtime scheduling
behavior via a boot time selection.
There's also the /debug/sched_debug switch to do this runtime.
This feature is implemented via runtime patching (a new variant of static calls).
The scope of the runtime patching can be best reviewed by looking
at the sched_dynamic_update() function in kernel/sched/core.c.
( Note that the dynamic none/voluntary mode isn't 100% identical,
for example preempt-RCU is available in all cases, plus the
preempt count is maintained in all models, which has runtime
overhead even with the code patching. )
The PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY/PREEMPT_NONE models, used by the vast majority
of distributions, are supposed to be unaffected.
- Fix ignored rescheduling after rcu_eqs_enter(). This is a bug that
was found via rcutorture triggering a hang. The bug is that
rcu_idle_enter() may wake up a NOCB kthread, but this happens after
the last generic need_resched() check. Some cpuidle drivers fix it
by chance but many others don't.
In true 2020 fashion the original bug fix has grown into a 5-patch
scheduler/RCU fix series plus another 16 RCU patches to address
the underlying issue of missed preemption events. These are the
initial fixes that should fix current incarnations of the bug.
- Clean up rbtree usage in the scheduler, by providing & using the following

partial-order; less() based:
- rb_add(): add a new entry to the rbtree
- rb_add_cached(): like rb_add(), but for a rb_root_cached

sibling scan logic.
- Improve the cpufreq cooling driver by getting the effective CPU utilization

Entering RCU idle mode may cause a deferred wake up of an RCU NOCB_GP
kthread (rcuog) to be serviced.
Usually a local wake up happening while running the idle task is handled
in one of the need_resched() checks carefully placed within the idle
loop that can break to the scheduler.
Unfortunately the call to rcu_idle_enter() is already beyond the last
generic need_resched() check and we may halt the CPU with a resched
request unhandled, leaving the task hanging.
Fix this with splitting the rcuog wakeup handling from rcu_idle_enter()
and place it before the last generic need_resched() check in the idle
loop. It is then assumed that no call to call_rcu() will be performed
after that in the idle loop until the CPU is put in low power mode.

To re-offload the callback processing off of a CPU, it is necessary to
clear SEGCBLIST_SOFTIRQ_ONLY, set SEGCBLIST_OFFLOADED, and then notify
both the CB and GP kthreads so that they both set their own bit flag and
start processing the callbacks remotely. The re-offloading worker is
then notified that it can stop the RCU_SOFTIRQ handler (or rcuc kthread,
as the case may be) from processing the callbacks locally.
Ordering must be carefully enforced so that the callbacks that used to be
processed locally without locking will have the same ordering properties
when they are invoked by the nocb CB and GP kthreads.
This commit makes this change.

There is a need for a polling interface for SRCU grace
periods, so this commit supplies get_state_synchronize_srcu(),
start_poll_synchronize_srcu(), and poll_state_synchronize_srcu() for this
purpose. The first can be used if future grace periods are inevitable
(perhaps due to a later call_srcu() invocation), the second if future
grace periods might not otherwise happen, and the third to check if a
grace period has elapsed since the corresponding call to either of the
first two.
As with get_state_synchronize_rcu() and cond_synchronize_rcu(),
the return value from either get_state_synchronize_srcu() or
start_poll_synchronize_srcu() must be passed in to a later call to
poll_state_synchronize_srcu().

Pull RCU fix from Paul McKenney:
"This is a fix for a regression in the v5.10 merge window, but it was
reported quite late in the v5.10 process, plus generating and testing
the fix took some time.
The regression is due to commit 36dadef23f ("kprobes: Init kprobes
in early_initcall") which on powerpc can use RCU Tasks before
initialization, resulting in boot failures.
The fix is straightforward, simply moving initialization of RCU Tasks
before the early_initcall()s. The fix has been exposed to -next and
kbuild test robot testing, and has been tested by the PowerPC guys"
* 'rcu/urgent' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu:
rcu-tasks: Move RCU-tasks initialization to before early_initcall()
PowerPC testing encountered boot failures due to RCU Tasks not being
fully initialized until core_initcall() time. This commit therefore
initializes RCU Tasks (along with Rude RCU and RCU Tasks Trace) just
before early_initcall() time, thus allowing waiting on RCU Tasks grace
periods from early_initcall() handlers.

We run into a unused variable warning in bridge code when variable is
only used inside the condition of rcu_dereference_protected().
#define mlock_dereference(X, br) \
rcu_dereference_protected(X, lockdep_is_held(&br->multicast_lock))
Since on builds with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=n rcu_dereference_protected()
compiles to nothing the compiler doesn't see the variable use.
This commit therefore prevents this warning by adding the condition as
dead code.

Currently, variables used only within lockdep expressions are flagged as
unused, requiring that these variables' declarations be decorated with
either #ifdef or __maybe_unused. This results in ugly code. This commit
therefore causes the RCU lock maps to be visible even when lockdep is not
enabled, thus removing the need for these decorations. This approach
further relies on dead-code elimination to remove any references to
functions or variables that are not available in non-lockdep kernels.

The CONFIG_PREEMPT=n instance of rcu_read_unlock is even more
aggressively than that of CONFIG_PREEMPT=y in deferring reporting
quiescent states to the RCU core. This is just what is wanted in normal
use because it reduces overhead, but the resulting delay is not what
is wanted for kernels built with CONFIG_RCU_STRICT_GRACE_PERIOD=y.
This commit therefore adds an rcu_read_unlock_strict() function that
checks for exceptional conditions, and reports the newly started
quiescent state if it is safe to do so, also doing a spin-delay if
requested via rcutree.rcu_unlock_delay. This commit also adds a call
to rcu_read_unlock_strict() from the CONFIG_PREEMPT=n instance of
__rcu_read_unlock().

Make kvfree_rcu() capable of freeing objects that will not
embed an rcu_head within it. This saves storage overhead in
such objects. Reclaiming headless objects this way requires
only a single argument (pointer to the object).
After this patch, there are two ways to use kvfree_rcu():
a) kvfree_rcu(ptr, rhf);
struct X {
struct rcu_head rhf;
unsigned char data[100];
};
void *ptr = kvmalloc(sizeof(struct X), GFP_KERNEL);
if (ptr)
kvfree_rcu(ptr, rhf);
b) kvfree_rcu(ptr);
void *ptr = kvmalloc(some_bytes, GFP_KERNEL);
if (ptr)
kvfree_rcu(ptr);
Note that the headless usage (example b) can only be used in a code
that can sleep. This is enforced by the CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP
option.

The following changes are introduced:
1. Rename rcu_invoke_kfree_callback() to rcu_invoke_kvfree_callback(),
as well as the associated trace events, so the rcu_kfree_callback(),
becomes rcu_kvfree_callback(). The reason is to be aligned with kvfree()
notation.
2. Rename __is_kfree_rcu_offset to __is_kvfree_rcu_offset. All RCU
paths use kvfree() now instead of kfree(), thus rename it.
3. Rename kfree_call_rcu() to the kvfree_call_rcu(). The reason is,
it is capable of freeing vmalloc() memory now. Do the same with
__kfree_rcu() macro, it becomes __kvfree_rcu(), the goal is the
same.

This commit adds a "rude" variant of RCU-tasks that has as quiescent
states schedule(), cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs(), userspace execution,
and (in theory, anyway) cond_resched(). In other words, RCU-tasks rude
readers are regions of code with preemption disabled, but excluding code
early in the CPU-online sequence and late in the CPU-offline sequence.
Updates make use of IPIs and force an IPI and a context switch on each
online CPU. This variant is useful in some situations in tracing.

Although the rcu_swap_protected() macro follows the example of
swap(), the interactions with RCU make its update of its argument
somewhat counter-intuitive. This commit therefore introduces
an rcu_replace_pointer() that returns the old value of the RCU
pointer instead of doing the argument update. Once all the uses of
rcu_swap_protected() are updated to instead use rcu_replace_pointer(),
rcu_swap_protected() will be removed.
