Alexander Pateenok 69a60bc75f percpu: remove PER_CPU_DEF_ATTRIBUTES macro
The macro is not used:

  $ grep -r PER_CPU_DEF_ATTRIBUTES
  include/linux/percpu-defs.h:	__PCPU_ATTRS(sec) PER_CPU_DEF_ATTRIBUTES __weak		\
  include/linux/percpu-defs.h:	__PCPU_ATTRS(sec) PER_CPU_DEF_ATTRIBUTES		\
  include/asm-generic/percpu.h:#ifndef PER_CPU_DEF_ATTRIBUTES
  include/asm-generic/percpu.h:#define PER_CPU_DEF_ATTRIBUTES

It was added with b01e8dc343 ("alpha: fix percpu build breakage") and
removed in 2009 with b01e8dc34379..6088464cf1ae.

Brijesh Singh ac26963a11 percpu: Introduce DEFINE_PER_CPU_DECRYPTED
KVM guest defines three per-CPU variables (steal-time, apf_reason, and
kvm_pic_eoi) which are shared between a guest and a hypervisor.

When SEV is active, memory is encrypted with a guest-specific key, and if
the guest OS wants to share the memory region with the hypervisor then it
must clear the C-bit (i.e set decrypted) before sharing it.

DEFINE_PER_CPU_DECRYPTED can be used to define the per-CPU variables
which will be shared between a guest and a hypervisor.

Zhengyu He 330d282216 core: fix typo in percpu read_mostly section
This fixes a typo that named the read_mostly section of percpu as
readmostly. It works fine with SMP because the linker script specifies
.data..percpu..readmostly. However, UP kernel builds don't have percpu
sections defined and the non-percpu version of the section is called
data..read_mostly, so .data..readmostly will float around and may break
things unexpectedly.

Looking at the original change that introduced data..percpu..readmostly
(commit c957ef2c59), it looks like this
was the original intention.

Tested: Built UP kernel and confirmed the sections got merged.

- Before the patch:
$ objdump -h vmlinux.o  | grep '\.data\.\.read.*mostly'
38 .data..read_mostly 00004418  0000000000000000  0000000000000000  00431ac0  2**6

Tejun Heo 6fbc07bbe2 percpu: invoke __verify_pcpu_ptr() from the generic part of accessors and operations
__verify_pcpu_ptr() is used to verify that a specified parameter is
actually an percpu pointer by percpu accessor and operation
implementations.  Currently, where it's called isn't clearly defined
and we just ensure that it's invoked at least once for all accessors
and operations.

The lack of clarity on when it should be called isn't nice and given
that this is a completely generic issue, there's no reason to make
archs worry about it.

This patch updates __verify_pcpu_ptr() invocations such that it's
always invoked from the final generic wrapper once per access or
operation.  As this is already the case for {raw|this}_cpu_*()
definitions through __pcpu_size_*(), only the {raw|per|this}_cpu_ptr()
accessors need to be updated.

This change makes it unnecessary for archs to worry about
__verify_pcpu_ptr().  x86's arch_raw_cpu_ptr() is updated accordingly.

Tejun Heo eba117889a percpu: preffity percpu header files
percpu macros are difficult to read.  It's partly because they're
fairly complex but also because they simply lack visual and
conventional consistency to an unusual degree.  The preceding patches
tried to organize macro definitions consistently by their roles.  This
patch makes the following cosmetic changes to improve overall
readability.

* Use consistent convention for multi-line macro definitions - "do {"
  or "({" are now put on their own lines and the line continuing '\'
  are all put on the same column.

* Temp variables used inside macro are consistently given "__" prefix.

* When a macro argument is passed to another macro or a function,
  putting extra parenthses around it doesn't help anything.  Don't put
  them.

* _this_cpu_generic_*() are renamed to this_cpu_generic_*() so that
  they're consistent with raw_cpu_generic_*().

* Reorganize raw_cpu_*() and this_cpu_*() definitions so that trivial
  wrappers are collected in one place after actual operation
  definitions.

* Other misc cleanups including reorganizing comments.

All changes in this patch are cosmetic and cause no functional
difference.

Tejun Heo cadb1c4db2 percpu: use raw_cpu_*() to define __this_cpu_*()
__this_cpu_*() operations are the same as raw_cpu_*() operations
except for the added __this_cpu_preempt_check().  Curiously, these
were defined using __pcu_size_call_*() instead of being layered on top
of raw_cpu_*().

Let's layer them so that __this_cpu_*() are defined in terms of
raw_cpu_*().  It's simpler and less error-prone this way.

  {raw|this}_cpu_*_N() definitions and the visiual inconsistency was

Tejun Heo a32f8d8eda percpu: move {raw|this}_cpu_*() definitions to include/linux/percpu-defs.h
We're in the process of moving all percpu accessors and operations to
include/linux/percpu-defs.h so that they're available to arch headers
without having to include full include/linux/percpu.h which may cause
cyclic inclusion dependency.

This patch moves {raw|this}_cpu_*() definitions from
include/linux/percpu.h to include/linux/percpu-defs.h.  The code is
moved mostly verbatim; however, raw_cpu_*() are placed above
this_cpu_*() which is more conventional as the raw operations may be
used to defined other variants.

This is pure reorganization.

* Definitions are layered when possible - e.g. per_cpu() is now

* per_cpu(), __raw_get_cpu_var() and __get_cpu_var() are defined in a

Tejun Heo 62fde54123 percpu: include/asm-generic/percpu.h should contain only arch-overridable parts
The roles of the various percpu header files has become unclear.
There are four header files involved.

 include/linux/percpu-defs.h
 include/linux/percpu.h
 include/asm-generic/percpu.h
 arch/*/include/asm/percpu.h

The original intention for include/asm-generic/percpu.h is providing
generic definitions for arch-overridable parts; however, it now hosts
various stuff which can't be overridden by archs.

Also, include/linux/percpu-defs.h was initially added to contain
section and percpu variable definition macros so that arch header
files can make use of them without worrying about introducing cyclic
inclusion dependency by including include/linux/percpu.h; however,
arch headers sometimes need to access percpu variables too and this is
one of the reasons why some accessors were implemented in
include/linux/asm-generic/percpu.h.

Let's clear up the situation by making include/asm-generic/percpu.h
contain only arch-overridable parts and moving accessors and
operations into include/linux/percpu-defs.  Note that this patch only
moves things from include/asm-generic/percpu.h.
include/linux/percpu.h will be taken care of by later patches.

This patch moves the followings.

* SHIFT_PERCPU_PTR() / VERIFY_PERCPU_PTR()
* per_cpu()
* raw_cpu_ptr()
* this_cpu_ptr()
* __get_cpu_var()
* __raw_get_cpu_var()
* __this_cpu_ptr()
* PER_CPU_[SHARED_]ALIGNED_SECTION
* PER_CPU_[SHARED_]ALIGNED_SECTION
* PER_CPU_FIRST_SECTION

This patch is pure reorganization.

Tejun Heo b1a0fbfdde percpu: fix spurious sparse warnings from DEFINE_PER_CPU()
When CONFIG_DEBUG_FORCE_WEAK_PER_CPU or CONFIG_ARCH_NEEDS_WEAK_PER_CPU
is set, DEFINE_PER_CPU() explodes into cryptic series of definitions
to still allow using "static" for percpu variables while keeping all
per-cpu symbols unique in the kernel image which is required for weak
symbols.  This ultimately converts the actual symbol to global whether
DEFINE_PER_CPU() is prefixed with static or not.

Unfortunately, the macro forgot to add explicit extern declartion of
the actual symbol ending up defining global symbol without preceding
declaration for static definitions which naturally don't have matching
DECLARE_PER_CPU().  The only ill effect is triggering of the following
warnings.

 fs/inode.c:74:8: warning: symbol 'nr_inodes' was not declared. Should it be static?
 fs/inode.c:75:8: warning: symbol 'nr_unused' was not declared. Should it be static?

Fix it by adding extern declaration in the DEFINE_PER_CPU() macro.

Tejun Heo 3e352aa8ee x86, percpu: Fix DECLARE/DEFINE_PER_CPU_PAGE_ALIGNED()
DECLARE/DEFINE_PER_CPU_PAGE_ALIGNED() put percpu variables in
.page_aligned section without adding any alignment restrictions.
Currently, this doesn't cause any problem because all users of the
macros have explicit page alignment and page-sized but it's much safer
to enforce page alignment from the macros.  After all, it's what they
claim to do.

Add __aligned(PAGE_SIZE) to DECLARE/DEFINE_PER_CPU_PAGE_ALIGNED() and
drop explicit alignment from it users.

Tejun Heo c43768cbb7 Merge branch 'master' into for-next
Pull linus#master to merge PER_CPU_DEF_ATTRIBUTES and alpha build fix
changes.  As alpha in percpu tree uses 'weak' attribute instead of
inline assembly, there's no need for __used attribute.

Tejun Heo b01e8dc343 alpha: fix percpu build breakage
alpha percpu access requires custom SHIFT_PERCPU_PTR() definition for
modules to work around addressing range limitation.  This is done via
generating inline assembly using C preprocessing which forces the
assembler to generate external reference.  This happens behind the
compiler's back and makes the compiler think that static percpu variables
in modules are unused.

This used to be worked around by using __unused attribute for percpu
variables which prevent the compiler from omitting the variable; however,
recent declare/definition attribute unification change broke this as
__used can't be used for declaration.  Also, in the process,
PER_CPU_ATTRIBUTES definition in alpha percpu.h got broken.

This patch adds PER_CPU_DEF_ATTRIBUTES which is only used for definitions
and make alpha use it to add __used for percpu variables in modules.  This
also fixes the PER_CPU_ATTRIBUTES double definition bug.

Tejun Heo 1a8dd307cc percpu: use __weak only in the definition of weak percpu variables
__weak is necessary only for definition and might even not work in
declaration.  Drop it from declaration.

Tejun Heo 7c756e6e19 percpu: implement optional weak percpu definitions
Some archs (alpha and s390) need to use weak definitions for percpu
variables in modules so that the compiler generates external
references for them.

This patch implements weak percpu definitions which arch can enable by
defining ARCH_NEEDS_WEAK_PER_CPU in arch percpu header file.  This
weak definition adds the following two restrictions on percpu variable
definitions.

  1. percpu symbols must be unique whether static or not
  2. percpu variables can't be defined inside a function

To ensure that these restrictions are observed in generic code, config
option DEBUG_FORCE_WEAK_PER_CPU enables weak percpu definitions for
all cases.

This patch is inspired by Ivan Kokshaysky's alpha percpu patch.

[ Impact: stricter rules for percpu variables, one more debug config option ]

David Howells 5028eaa97d PERCPU: Collect the DECLARE/DEFINE declarations together
Collect the DECLARE/DEFINE declarations together in linux/percpu-defs.h so
that they're in one place, and give them descriptive comments, particularly
the SHARED_ALIGNED variant.

It would be nice to collect these in linux/percpu.h, but that's not possible
without sorting out the severe #include recursion between the x86 arch headers
and the general headers (and possibly other arches too).
