Linus Torvalds 3469d261ea Merge branch 'locking-rwsem-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull support for killable rwsems from Ingo Molnar:
 "This, by Michal Hocko, implements down_write_killable().

  The main usecase will be to update mm_sem usage sites to use this new
  API, to allow the mm-reaper introduced in commit aac4536355 ("mm,
  oom: introduce oom reaper") to tear down oom victim address spaces
  asynchronously with minimum latencies and without deadlock worries"

[ The vfs will want it too as the inode lock is changed from a mutex to
  a rwsem due to the parallel lookup and readdir updates ]

Peter Zijlstra e7904a28f5 locking/lockdep, sched/core: Implement a better lock pinning scheme
The problem with the existing lock pinning is that each pin is of
value 1; this mean you can simply unpin if you know its pinned,
without having any extra information.

This scheme generates a random (16 bit) cookie for each pin and
requires this same cookie to unpin. This means you have to keep the
cookie in context.

No objsize difference for !LOCKDEP kernels.

Peter Zijlstra 75dd602a51 lockdep: Fix lock_chain::base size
lock_chain::base is used to store an index into the chain_hlocks[]
array, however that array contains more elements than can be indexed
using the u16.

Change the lock_chain structure to use a bitfield to encode the data
it needs and add BUILD_BUG_ON() assertions to check the fields are
wide enough.

Also, for DEBUG_LOCKDEP, assert that we don't run out of elements of
that array; as that would wreck the collision detectoring.

Now that all the architectures implement the necessary glue code
we can introduce down_write_killable(). The only difference wrt. regular
down_write() is that the slow path waits in TASK_KILLABLE state and the

Andrew Morton a63f38cc4c locking/lockdep: Convert hash tables to hlists
Mike said:

: CONFIG_UBSAN_ALIGNMENT breaks x86-64 kernel with lockdep enabled, i.e.
: kernel with CONFIG_UBSAN_ALIGNMENT=y fails to load without even any error
: message.
:
: The problem is that ubsan callbacks use spinlocks and might be called
: before lockdep is initialized.  Particularly this line in the
: reserve_ebda_region function causes problem:
:
: lowmem = *(unsigned short *)__va(BIOS_LOWMEM_KILOBYTES);
:
: If i put lockdep_init() before reserve_ebda_region call in
: x86_64_start_reservations kernel loads well.

Fix this ordering issue permanently: change lockdep so that it uses hlists
for the hash tables.  Unlike a list_head, an hlist_head is in its
initialized state when it is all-zeroes, so lockdep is ready for operation
immediately upon boot - lockdep_init() need not have run.

The patch will also save some memory.

Probably lockdep_init() and lockdep_initialized can be done away with now.

George Beshers 68722101ec locking/lockdep: Remove hard coded array size dependency
An apparent oversight left a hardcoded '4' in place when
LOCKSTAT_POINTS was introduced.

The contention_point[] and contending_point[] arrays in the
structs lock_class and lock_class_stats need to be the same
size for the loops in lock_stats() to be correct.

This patch allows LOCKSTAT_POINTS to be changed without
affecting the correctness of the code.

Peter Zijlstra a24fc60d63 lockdep: Implement lock pinning
Add a lockdep annotation that WARNs if you 'accidentially' unlock a
lock.

This is especially helpful for code with callbacks, where the upper
layer assumes a lock remains taken but a lower layer thinks it maybe
can drop and reacquire the lock.

By unwittingly breaking up the lock, races can be introduced.

Lock pinning is a lockdep annotation that helps with this, when you
lockdep_pin_lock() a held lock, any unlock without a
lockdep_unpin_lock() will produce a WARN. Think of this as a relative
of lockdep_assert_held(), except you don't only assert its held now,
but ensure it stays held until you release your assertion.

RFC: a possible alternative API would be something like:

  int cookie = lockdep_pin_lock(&foo);
  ...
  lockdep_unpin_lock(&foo, cookie);

Where we pick a random number for the pin_count; this makes it
impossible to sneak a lock break in without also passing the right
cookie along.

I've not done this because it ends up generating code for !LOCKDEP,
esp. if you need to pass the cookie around for some reason.

Paul E. McKenney d24209bb68 rcu: Improve diagnostics for blocked critical sections in irq
If an RCU read-side critical section occurs within an interrupt handler
or a softirq handler, it cannot have been preempted.  Therefore, there is
a check in rcu_read_unlock_special() checking for this error.  However,
when this check triggers, it lacks diagnostic information.  This commit
therefore moves rcu_read_unlock()'s lockdep annotation to follow the
call to __rcu_read_unlock() and changes rcu_read_unlock_special()'s
WARN_ON_ONCE() to an lockdep_rcu_suspicious() in order to locate where
the offending RCU read-side critical section began.  In addition, the
value of the ->rcu_read_unlock_special field is printed.

Peter Zijlstra 8acd91e862 locking/lockdep: Revert qrwlock recusive stuff
Commit f0bab73cb5 ("locking/lockdep: Restrict the use of recursive
read_lock() with qrwlock") changed lockdep to try and conform to the
qrwlock semantics which differ from the traditional rwlock semantics.

In particular qrwlock is fair outside of interrupt context, but in
interrupt context readers will ignore all fairness.

The problem modeling this is that read and write side have different
lock state (interrupts) semantics but we only have a single
representation of these. Therefore lockdep will get confused, thinking
the lock can cause interrupt lock inversions.

So revert it for now; the old rwlock semantics were already imperfectly
modeled and the qrwlock extra won't fit either.

If we want to properly fix this, I think we need to resurrect the work
by Gautham did a few years ago that split the read and write state of
locks:

   http://lwn.net/Articles/332801/

FWIW the locking selftest that would've failed (and was reported by
Borislav earlier) is something like:

  RL(X1);	/* IRQ-ON */
  LOCK(A);
  UNLOCK(A);
  RU(X1);

  IRQ_ENTER();
  RL(X1);	/* IN-IRQ */
  RU(X1);
  IRQ_EXIT();

At which point it would report that because A is an IRQ-unsafe lock we
can suffer the following inversion:

	CPU0		CPU1

	lock(A)
			lock(X1)
			lock(A)
	<IRQ>
	 lock(X1)

And this is 'wrong' because X1 can recurse (assuming the above lock are
in fact read-lock) but lockdep doesn't know about this.

Paul E. McKenney dd56af42bd rcu: Eliminate deadlock between CPU hotplug and expedited grace periods
Currently, the expedited grace-period primitives do get_online_cpus().
This greatly simplifies their implementation, but means that calls
to them holding locks that are acquired by CPU-hotplug notifiers (to
say nothing of calls to these primitives from CPU-hotplug notifiers)
can deadlock.  But this is starting to become inconvenient, as can be
seen here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/8/5/754.  The problem in this
case is that some developers need to acquire a mutex from a CPU-hotplug
notifier, but also need to hold it across a synchronize_rcu_expedited().
As noted above, this currently results in deadlock.

This commit avoids the deadlock and retains the simplicity by creating
a try_get_online_cpus(), which returns false if the get_online_cpus()
reference count could not immediately be incremented.  If a call to
try_get_online_cpus() returns true, the expedited primitives operate as
before.  If a call returns false, the expedited primitives fall back to
normal grace-period operations.  This falling back of course results in
increased grace-period latency, but only during times when CPU hotplug
operations are actually in flight.  The effect should therefore be
negligible during normal operation.

Waiman Long f0bab73cb5 locking/lockdep: Restrict the use of recursive read_lock() with qrwlock
Unlike the original unfair rwlock implementation, queued rwlock
will grant lock according to the chronological sequence of the lock
requests except when the lock requester is in the interrupt context.
Consequently, recursive read_lock calls will now hang the process if
there is a write_lock call somewhere in between the read_lock calls.

This patch updates the lockdep implementation to look for recursive
read_lock calls. A new read state (3) is used to mark those read_lock
call that cannot be recursively called except in the interrupt
context. The new read state does exhaust the 2 bits available in
held_lock:read bit field. The addition of any new read state in the
future may require a redesign of how all those bits are squeezed
together in the held_lock structure.

Pull x86 LTO changes from Peter Anvin:
 "More infrastructure work in preparation for link-time optimization
  (LTO).  Most of these changes is to make sure symbols accessed from
  assembly code are properly marked as visible so the linker doesn't
  remove them.

  My understanding is that the changes to support LTO are still not
  upstream in binutils, but are on the way there.  This patchset should
  conclude the x86-specific changes, and remaining patches to actually
  enable LTO will be fed through the Kbuild tree (other than keeping up
  with changes to the x86 code base, of course), although not
  necessarily in this merge window"

Oleg Nesterov fb9edbe984 lockdep: Make held_lock->check and "int check" argument bool
The "int check" argument of lock_acquire() and held_lock->check are
misleading. This is actually a boolean: 2 means "true", everything
else is "false".

And there is no need to pass 1 or 0 to lock_acquire() depending on
CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING, __lock_acquire() checks prove_locking at the
start and clears "check" if !CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING.

Note: probably we can simply kill this member/arg. The only explicit
user of check => 0 is rcu_lock_acquire(), perhaps we can change it to
use lock_acquire(trylock =>, read => 2). __lockdep_no_validate means
check => 0 implicitly, but we can change validate_chain() to check
hlock->instance->key instead. Not to mention it would be nice to get
rid of lockdep_set_novalidate_class().

John Stultz 1ca7d67cf5 seqcount: Add lockdep functionality to seqcount/seqlock structures
Currently seqlocks and seqcounts don't support lockdep.

After running across a seqcount related deadlock in the timekeeping
code, I used a less-refined and more focused variant of this patch
to narrow down the cause of the issue.

This is a first-pass attempt to properly enable lockdep functionality
on seqlocks and seqcounts.

Since seqcounts are used in the vdso gettimeofday code, I've provided
non-lockdep accessors for those needs.

I've also handled one case where there were nested seqlock writers
and there may be more edge cases.

Comments and feedback would be appreciated!

In lockdep.h, the spinlock/mutex/rwsem/rwlock/lock_map acquire macros have
different definitions based on the value of CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING.  We have
separate ifdefs for each of these definitions, which seems redundant.

Introduce lock_acquire_{exclusive,shared,shared_recursive} helpers which
will have different definitions based on CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING.  Then all
other helper macros can be defined based on the above ones, which reduces
the amount of ifdefined code.

Peter Zijlstra 4d82a1debb lockdep: fix oops in processing workqueue
Under memory load, on x86_64, with lockdep enabled, the workqueue's
process_one_work() has been seen to oops in __lock_acquire(), barfing
on a 0xffffffff00000000 pointer in the lockdep_map's class_cache[].

Because it's permissible to free a work_struct from its callout function,
the map used is an onstack copy of the map given in the work_struct: and
that copy is made without any locking.

Surprisingly, gcc (4.5.1 in Hugh's case) uses "rep movsl" rather than
"rep movsq" for that structure copy: which might race with a workqueue
user's wait_on_work() doing lock_map_acquire() on the source of the
copy, putting a pointer into the class_cache[], but only in time for
the top half of that pointer to be copied to the destination map.

Boom when process_one_work() subsequently does lock_map_acquire()
on its onstack copy of the lockdep_map.

Fix this, and a similar instance in call_timer_fn(), with a
lockdep_copy_map() function which additionally NULLs the class_cache[].

Note: this oops was actually seen on 3.4-next, where flush_work() newly
does the racing lock_map_acquire(); but Tejun points out that 3.4 and
earlier are already vulnerable to the same through wait_on_work().

* Patch orginally from Peter.  Hugh modified it a bit and wrote the
  description.

Paul E. McKenney b3fbab0571 rcu: Restore checks for blocking in RCU read-side critical sections
Long ago, using TREE_RCU with PREEMPT would result in "scheduling
while atomic" diagnostics if you blocked in an RCU read-side critical
section.  However, PREEMPT now implies TREE_PREEMPT_RCU, which defeats
this diagnostic.  This commit therefore adds a replacement diagnostic
based on PROVE_RCU.

Because rcu_lockdep_assert() and lockdep_rcu_dereference() are now being
used for things that have nothing to do with rcu_dereference(), rename
lockdep_rcu_dereference() to lockdep_rcu_suspicious() and add a third
argument that is a string indicating what is suspicious.  This third
argument is passed in from a new third argument to rcu_lockdep_assert().
Update all calls to rcu_lockdep_assert() to add an informative third
argument.

Also, add a pair of rcu_lockdep_assert() calls from within
rcu_note_context_switch(), one complaining if a context switch occurs
in an RCU-bh read-side critical section and another complaining if a
context switch occurs in an RCU-sched read-side critical section.
These are present only if the PROVE_RCU kernel parameter is enabled.

Finally, fix some checkpatch whitespace complaints in lockdep.c.

Again, you must enable PROVE_RCU to see these new diagnostics.  But you
are enabling PROVE_RCU to check out new RCU uses in any case, aren't you?

Peter Zijlstra e4c70a6629 lockdep, mutex: provide mutex_lock_nest_lock
In order to convert i_mmap_lock to a mutex we need a mutex equivalent to
spin_lock_nest_lock(), thus provide the mutex_lock_nest_lock() annotation.

As with spin_lock_nest_lock(), mutex_lock_nest_lock() allows annotation of
the locking pattern where an outer lock serializes the acquisition order
of nested locks.  That is, if every time you lock multiple locks A, say A1
and A2 you first acquire N, the order of acquiring A1 and A2 is
irrelevant.

Tejun Heo 2ce802f62b lockdep: Move early boot local IRQ enable/disable status to init/main.c
During early boot, local IRQ is disabled until IRQ subsystem is
properly initialized.  During this time, no one should enable
local IRQ and some operations which usually are not allowed with
IRQ disabled, e.g. operations which might sleep or require
communications with other processors, are allowed.

lockdep tracked this with early_boot_irqs_off/on() callbacks.
As other subsystems need this information too, move it to
init/main.c and make it generally available.  While at it,
toggle the boolean to early_boot_irqs_disabled instead of
enabled so that it can be initialized with %false and %true
indicates the exceptional condition.

Tejun Heo e159489baa workqueue: relax lockdep annotation on flush_work()
Currently, the lockdep annotation in flush_work() requires exclusive
access on the workqueue the target work is queued on and triggers
warning if a work is trying to flush another work on the same
workqueue; however, this is no longer true as workqueues can now
execute multiple works concurrently.

This patch adds lock_map_acquire_read() and make process_one_work()
hold read access to the workqueue while executing a work and
start_flush_work() check for write access if concurrnecy level is one
or the workqueue has a rescuer (as only one execution resource - the
rescuer - is guaranteed to be available under memory pressure), and
read access if higher.

This better represents what's going on and removes spurious lockdep
warnings which are triggered by fake dependency chain created through
flush_work().

* Peter pointed out that flushing another work from a WQ_MEM_RECLAIM
  wq breaks forward progress guarantee under memory pressure.
  Condition check accordingly updated.

Hitoshi Mitake 620162505e lockdep: Add improved subclass caching
Current lockdep_map only caches one class with subclass == 0,
and looks up hash table of classes when subclass != 0.

It seems that this has no problem because the case of
subclass != 0 is rare. But locks of struct rq are
acquired with subclass == 1 when task migration is executed.
Task migration is high frequent event, so I modified lockdep
to cache subclasses.

I measured the score of perf bench sched messaging.
This patch has slightly but certain (order of milli seconds
or 10 milli seconds) effect when lots of tasks are running.
I'll show the result in the tail of this description.

NR_LOCKDEP_CACHING_CLASSES specifies how many classes can be
cached in the instances of lockdep_map.
I discussed with Peter Zijlstra in LinuxCon Japan about
this approach and he taught me that caching every subclasses(8)
is cleary waste of memory. So number of cached classes
should be configurable.

=== Score comparison of benchmarks ===
# "min" means best score, and "max" means worst score

for i in `seq 1 10`; do ./perf bench -f simple sched messaging; done

before: min: 0.565000, max: 0.583000, avg: 0.572500

Dave Young 2edf5e4980 sysctl extern cleanup: lockdep
Extern declarations in sysctl.c should be moved to their own header file,
and then include them in relavant .c files.

Move lockdep extern declarations to linux/lockdep.h

Ming Lei e351b660fd lockdep: Reintroduce generation count to make BFS faster
We still can apply DaveM's generation count optimization to
BFS, based on the following idea:

 - before doing each BFS, increase the global generation id
   by 1

 - if one node in the graph has been visited, mark it as
   visited by storing the current global generation id into
   the node's dep_gen_id field

 - so we can decide if one node has been visited already, by
   comparing the node's dep_gen_id with the global generation id.

By applying DaveM's generation count optimization to current
implementation of BFS, we gain the following advantages:

 - we save MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES/8 bytes memory;

 - we remove the bitmap_zero(bfs_accessed, MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES);
   in each BFS, which is very time-consuming since
   MAX_LOCKDEP_ENTRIES may be very large.(16384UL)

Peter Zijlstra bb97a91e25 lockdep: Deal with many similar locks
spin_lock_nest_lock() allows to take many instances of the same
class, this can easily lead to overflow of MAX_LOCK_DEPTH.

To avoid this overflow, we'll stop accounting instances but
start reference counting the class in the held_lock structure.

[ We could maintain a list of instances, if we'd move the hlock
  stuff into __lock_acquired(), but that would require
  significant modifications to the current code. ]

We restrict this mode to spin_lock_nest_lock() only, because it
degrades the lockdep quality due to lost of instance.

For lockstat this means we don't track lock statistics for any
but the first lock in the series.

Currently nesting is limited to 11 bits because that was the
spare space available in held_lock. This yields a 2048
instances maximium.

Ming Lei c94aa5ca30 lockdep: Print the shortest dependency chain if finding a circle
Currently lockdep will print the 1st circle detected if it
exists when acquiring a new (next) lock.

This patch prints the shortest path from the next lock to be
acquired to the previous held lock if a circle is found.

The patch still uses the current method to check circle, and
once the circle is found, breadth-first search algorithem is
used to compute the shortest path from the next lock to the
previous lock in the forward lock dependency graph.

Printing the shortest path will shorten the dependency chain,
and make troubleshooting for possible circular locking easier.

Jan Kara 9a7aa12f39 vfs: Set special lockdep map for dirs only if not set by fs
Some filesystems need to set lockdep map for i_mutex differently for
different directories. For example OCFS2 has system directories (for
orphan inode tracking and for gathering all system files like journal
or quota files into a single place) which have different locking
locking rules than standard directories. For a filesystem setting
lockdep map is naturaly done when the inode is read but we have to
modify unlock_new_inode() not to overwrite the lockdep map the filesystem
has set.

Robin Holt e8c158bb31 Factor out #ifdefs from kernel/spinlock.c to LOCK_CONTENDED_FLAGS
SGI has observed that on large systems, interrupts are not serviced for a
long period of time when waiting for a rwlock.  The following patch series
re-enables irqs while waiting for the lock, resembling the code which is
already there for spinlocks.

I only made the ia64 version, because the patch adds some overhead to the
fast path.  I assume there is currently no demand to have this for other
architectures, because the systems are not so large.  Of course, the
possibility to implement raw_{read|write}_lock_flags for any architecture
is still there.

This patch:

The new macro LOCK_CONTENDED_FLAGS expands to the correct implementation
depending on the config options, so that IRQ's are re-enabled when
possible, but they remain disabled if CONFIG_LOCKDEP is set.
