During the LPC RCU BoF Paul asked how come the "USED" <- "IN-NMI"
detector doesn't trip over rcu_read_lock()'s lockdep annotation.
Looking into this I found a very embarrasing typo in
verify_lock_unused():
- if (!(class->usage_mask & LOCK_USED))
+ if (!(class->usage_mask & LOCKF_USED))
fixing that will indeed cause rcu_read_lock() to insta-splat :/
The above typo means that instead of testing for: 0x100 (1 <<
LOCK_USED), we test for 8 (LOCK_USED), which corresponds to (1 <<
LOCK_ENABLED_HARDIRQ).
So instead of testing for _any_ used lock, it will only match any lock
used with interrupts enabled.
The rcu_read_lock() annotation uses .check=0, which means it will not
set any of the interrupt bits and will thus never match.
In order to properly fix the situation and allow rcu_read_lock() to
correctly work, split LOCK_USED into LOCK_USED and LOCK_USED_READ and by
having .read users set USED_READ and test USED, pure read-recursive
locks are permitted.

Currently, the chainkey of a lock chain is a hash sum of the class_idx
of all the held locks, the read/write status are not taken in to
consideration while generating the chainkey. This could result into a
problem, if we have:
P1()
{
read_lock(B);
lock(A);
}
P2()
{
lock(A);
read_lock(B);
}
P3()
{
lock(A);
write_lock(B);
}
, and P1(), P2(), P3() run one by one. And when running P2(), lockdep
detects such a lock chain A -> B is not a deadlock, then it's added in
the chain cache, and then when running P3(), even if it's a deadlock, we
could miss it because of the hit of chain cache. This could be confirmed
by self testcase "chain cached mixed R-L/L-W ".
To resolve this, we use concept "hlock_id" to generate the chainkey, the
hlock_id is a tuple (hlock->class_idx, hlock->read), which fits in a u16
type. With this, the chainkeys are different is the lock sequences have
the same locks but different read/write status.
Besides, since we use "hlock_id" to generate chainkeys, the chain_hlocks
array now store the "hlock_id"s rather than lock_class indexes.

Currently, in safe->unsafe detection, lockdep misses the fact that a
LOCK_ENABLED_IRQ_*_READ usage and a LOCK_USED_IN_IRQ_*_READ usage may
cause deadlock too, for example:
P1 P2
<irq disabled>
write_lock(l1); <irq enabled>
read_lock(l2);
write_lock(l2);
<in irq>
read_lock(l1);
Actually, all of the following cases may cause deadlocks:
LOCK_USED_IN_IRQ_* -> LOCK_ENABLED_IRQ_*
LOCK_USED_IN_IRQ_*_READ -> LOCK_ENABLED_IRQ_*
LOCK_USED_IN_IRQ_* -> LOCK_ENABLED_IRQ_*_READ
LOCK_USED_IN_IRQ_*_READ -> LOCK_ENABLED_IRQ_*_READ
To fix this, we need to 1) change the calculation of exclusive_mask() so
that READ bits are not dropped and 2) always call usage() in
mark_lock_irq() to check usage deadlocks, even when the new usage of the
lock is READ.
Besides, adjust usage_match() and usage_acculumate() to recursive read
lock changes.

check_redundant() will report redundancy if it finds a path could
replace the about-to-add dependency in the BFS search. With recursive
read lock changes, we certainly need to change the match function for
the check_redundant(), because the path needs to match not only the lock
class but also the dependency kinds. For example, if the about-to-add
dependency @prev -> @next is A -(SN)-> B, and we find a path A -(S*)->
.. -(*R)->B in the dependency graph with __bfs() (for simplicity, we can
also say we find an -(SR)-> path from A to B), we can not replace the
dependency with that path in the BFS search. Because the -(SN)->
dependency can make a strong path with a following -(S*)-> dependency,
however an -(SR)-> path cannot.
Further, we can replace an -(SN)-> dependency with a -(EN)-> path, that
means if we find a path which is stronger than or equal to the
about-to-add dependency, we can report the redundancy. By "stronger", it
means both the start and the end of the path are not weaker than the
start and the end of the dependency (E is "stronger" than S and N is
"stronger" than R), so that we can replace the dependency with that
path.
To make sure we find a path whose start point is not weaker than the
about-to-add dependency, we use a trick: the ->only_xr of the root
(start point) of __bfs() is initialized as @prev-> == 0, therefore if
@prev is E, __bfs() will pick only -(E*)-> for the first dependency,
otherwise, __bfs() can pick -(E*)-> or -(S*)-> for the first dependency.
To make sure we find a path whose end point is not weaker than the
about-to-add dependency, we replace the match function for __bfs()
check_redundant(), we check for the case that either @next is R
(anything is not weaker than it) or the end point of the path is N
(which is not weaker than anything).

Currently, lockdep only has limit support for deadlock detection for
recursive read locks.
This patch support deadlock detection for recursive read locks. The
basic idea is:
We are about to add dependency B -> A in to the dependency graph, we use
check_noncircular() to find whether we have a strong dependency path
A -> .. -> B so that we have a strong dependency circle (a closed strong
dependency path):
A -> .. -> B -> A
, which doesn't have two adjacent dependencies as -(*R)-> L -(S*)->.
Since A -> .. -> B is already a strong dependency path, so if either
B -> A is -(E*)-> or A -> .. -> B is -(*N)->, the circle A -> .. -> B ->
A is strong, otherwise not. So we introduce a new match function
hlock_conflict() to replace the class_equal() for the deadlock check in
check_noncircular().

The "match" parameter of __bfs() is used for checking whether we hit a
match in the search, therefore it should return a boolean value rather
than an integer for better readability.
This patch then changes the return type of the function parameter and the
match functions to bool.

Now we have four types of dependencies in the dependency graph, and not
all the pathes carry real dependencies (the dependencies that may cause
a deadlock), for example:
Given lock A and B, if we have:
CPU1 CPU2
============= ==============
write_lock(A); read_lock(B);
read_lock(B); write_lock(A);
(assuming read_lock(B) is a recursive reader)
then we have dependencies A -(ER)-> B, and B -(SN)-> A, and a
dependency path A -(ER)-> B -(SN)-> A.
In lockdep w/o recursive locks, a dependency path from A to A
means a deadlock. However, the above case is obviously not a
deadlock, because no one holds B exclusively, therefore no one
waits for the other to release B, so who get A first in CPU1 and
CPU2 will run non-blockingly.
As a result, dependency path A -(ER)-> B -(SN)-> A is not a
real/strong dependency that could cause a deadlock.
From the observation above, we know that for a dependency path to be
real/strong, no two adjacent dependencies can be as -(*R)-> -(S*)->.
Now our mission is to make __bfs() traverse only the strong dependency
paths, which is simple: we record whether we only have -(*R)-> for the
previous lock_list of the path in lock_list::only_xr, and when we pick a
dependency in the traverse, we 1) filter out -(S*)-> dependency if the
previous lock_list only has -(*R)-> dependency (i.e. ->only_xr is true)
and 2) set the next lock_list::only_xr to true if we only have -(*R)->
left after we filter out dependencies based on 1), otherwise, set it to
false.
With this extension for __bfs(), we now need to initialize the root of
__bfs() properly (with a correct ->only_xr), to do so, we introduce some
helper functions, which also cleans up a little bit for the __bfs() root
initialization code.

To add recursive read locks into the dependency graph, we need to store
the types of dependencies for the BFS later. There are four types of
dependencies:
* Exclusive -> Non-recursive dependencies: EN
e.g. write_lock(prev) held and try to acquire write_lock(next)
or non-recursive read_lock(next), which can be represented as
"prev -(EN)-> next"
* Shared -> Non-recursive dependencies: SN
e.g. read_lock(prev) held and try to acquire write_lock(next) or
non-recursive read_lock(next), which can be represented as
"prev -(SN)-> next"
* Exclusive -> Recursive dependencies: ER
e.g. write_lock(prev) held and try to acquire recursive
read_lock(next), which can be represented as "prev -(ER)-> next"
* Shared -> Recursive dependencies: SR
e.g. read_lock(prev) held and try to acquire recursive
read_lock(next), which can be represented as "prev -(SR)-> next"
So we use 4 bits for the presence of each type in lock_list::dep. Helper
functions and macros are also introduced to convert a pair of locks into
lock_list::dep bit and maintain the addition of different types of
dependencies.

lock_list::distance is always not greater than MAX_LOCK_DEPTH (which
is 48 right now), so a u16 will fit. This patch reduces the size of
lock_list::distance to save space, so that we can introduce other fields
to help detect recursive read lock deadlocks without increasing the size
of lock_list structure.

Currently, __bfs() will do a breadth-first search in the dependency
graph and visit each lock class in the graph exactly once, so for
example, in the following graph:
A ---------> B
| ^
| |
+----------> C
a __bfs() call starts at A, will visit B through dependency A -> B and
visit C through dependency A -> C and that's it, IOW, __bfs() will not
visit dependency C -> B.
This is OK for now, as we only have strong dependencies in the
dependency graph, so whenever there is a traverse path from A to B in
__bfs(), it means A has strong dependencies to B (IOW, B depends on A
strongly). So no need to visit all dependencies in the graph.
However, as we are going to add recursive-read lock into the dependency
graph, as a result, not all the paths mean strong dependencies, in the
same example above, dependency A -> B may be a weak dependency and
traverse A -> C -> B may be a strong dependency path. And with the old
way of __bfs() (i.e. visiting every lock class exactly once), we will
miss the strong dependency path, which will result into failing to find
a deadlock. To cure this for the future, we need to find a way for
__bfs() to visit each dependency, rather than each class, exactly once
in the search until we find a match.
The solution is simple:
We used to mark lock_class::lockdep_dependency_gen_id to indicate a
class has been visited in __bfs(), now we change the semantics a little
bit: we now mark lock_class::lockdep_dependency_gen_id to indicate _all
the dependencies_ in its lock_{after,before} have been visited in the
__bfs() (note we only take one direction in a __bfs() search). In this
way, every dependency is guaranteed to be visited until we find a match.
Note: the checks in mark_lock_accessed() and lock_accessed() are
removed, because after this modification, we may call these two
functions on @source_entry of __bfs(), which may not be the entry in
"list_entries"

__bfs() could return four magic numbers:
1: search succeeds, but none match.
0: search succeeds, find one match.
-1: search fails because of the cq is full.
-2: search fails because a invalid node is found.
This patch cleans things up by using a enum type for the return value
of __bfs() and its friends, this improves the code readability of the
code, and further, could help if we want to extend the BFS.

On the archs using QUEUED_RWLOCKS, read_lock() is not always a recursive
read lock, actually it's only recursive if in_interrupt() is true. So
change the annotation accordingly to catch more deadlocks.
Note we used to treat read_lock() as pure recursive read locks in
lib/locking-seftest.c, and this is useful, especially for the lockdep
development selftest, so we keep this via a variable to force switching
lock annotation for read_lock().

The lockdep tracepoints are under the lockdep recursion counter, this
has a bunch of nasty side effects:
- TRACE_IRQFLAGS doesn't work across the entire tracepoint
- RCU-lockdep doesn't see the tracepoints either, hiding numerous
"suspicious RCU usage" warnings.
Pull the trace_lock_*() tracepoints completely out from under the
lockdep recursion handling and completely rely on the trace level
recusion handling -- also, tracing *SHOULD* not be taking locks in any
case.

static priority level knowledge from non-scheduler code.
The three APIs for non-scheduler code to set SCHED_FIFO are:
- sched_set_fifo()
- sched_set_fifo_low()
- sched_set_normal()
These are two FIFO priority levels: default (high), and a 'low' priority level,
plus sched_set_normal() to set the policy back to non-SCHED_FIFO.
Since the changes affect a lot of non-scheduler code, we kept this in a separate
tree.
When merging to the latest upstream tree there's a conflict in drivers/spi/spi.c,
which can be resolved via:
sched_set_fifo(ctlr->kworker_task);

Prior to commit:
859d069ee1 ("lockdep: Prepare for NMI IRQ state tracking")
IRQ state tracking was disabled in NMIs due to nmi_enter()
doing lockdep_off() -- with the obvious requirement that NMI entry
call nmi_enter() before trace_hardirqs_off().
[ AFAICT, PowerPC and SH violate this order on their NMI entry ]
However, that commit explicitly changed lockdep_hardirqs_*() to ignore
lockdep_off() and breaks every architecture that has irq-tracing in
it's NMI entry that hasn't been fixed up (x86 being the only fixed one
at this point).
The reason for this change is that by ignoring lockdep_off() we can:
- get rid of 'current->lockdep_recursion' in lockdep_assert_irqs*()
which was going to to give header-recursion issues with the
seqlock rework.
- allow these lockdep_assert_*() macros to function in NMI context.
Restore the previous state of things and allow an architecture to
opt-in to the NMI IRQ tracking support, however instead of relying on
lockdep_off(), rely on in_nmi(), both are part of nmi_enter() and so
over-all entry ordering doesn't need to change.

Using uninitialized_var() is dangerous as it papers over real bugs[1]
(or can in the future), and suppresses unrelated compiler warnings
(e.g. "unused variable"). If the compiler thinks it is uninitialized,
either simply initialize the variable or make compiler changes.
In preparation for removing[2] the[3] macro[4], remove all remaining
needless uses with the following script:
git grep '\buninitialized_var\b' | cut -d: -f1 | sort -u | \
xargs perl -pi -e \
's/\buninitialized_var\(([^\)]+)\)/\1/g;

This all started about 6 month ago with the attempt to move the Posix CPU
timer heavy lifting out of the timer interrupt code and just have lockless
quick checks in that code path. Trivial 5 patches.
This unearthed an inconsistency in the KVM handling of task work and the
review requested to move all of this into generic code so other
architectures can share.
Valid request and solved with another 25 patches but those unearthed
inconsistencies vs. RCU and instrumentation.
Digging into this made it obvious that there are quite some inconsistencies
vs. instrumentation in general. The int3 text poke handling in particular
was completely unprotected and with the batched update of trace events even
more likely to expose to endless int3 recursion.
In parallel the RCU implications of instrumenting fragile entry code came
up in several discussions.
The conclusion of the X86 maintainer team was to go all the way and make
the protection against any form of instrumentation of fragile and dangerous
code pathes enforcable and verifiable by tooling.
A first batch of preparatory work hit mainline with commit d5f744f9a2.
The (almost) full solution introduced a new code section '.noinstr.text'
into which all code which needs to be protected from instrumentation of all
sorts goes into. Any call into instrumentable code out of this section has
to be annotated. objtool has support to validate this. Kprobes now excludes
this section fully which also prevents BPF from fiddling with it and all
'noinstr' annotated functions also keep ftrace off. The section, kprobes
and objtool changes are already merged.
The major changes coming with this are:
- Preparatory cleanups
- Annotating of relevant functions to move them into the noinstr.text
section or enforcing inlining by marking them __always_inline so the
compiler cannot misplace or instrument them.
- Splitting and simplifying the idtentry macro maze so that it is now
clearly separated into simple exception entries and the more
interesting ones which use interrupt stacks and have the paranoid
handling vs. CR3 and GS.
- Move quite some of the low level ASM functionality into C code:
- enter_from and exit to user space handling. The ASM code now calls
into C after doing the really necessary ASM handling and the return
path goes back out without bells and whistels in ASM.
- exception entry/exit got the equivivalent treatment
- move all IRQ tracepoints from ASM to C so they can be placed as
appropriate which is especially important for the int3 recursion
issue.
- Consolidate the declaration and definition of entry points between 32
and 64 bit. They share a common header and macros now.
- Remove the extra device interrupt entry maze and just use the regular
exception entry code.
- All ASM entry points except NMI are now generated from the shared header
file and the corresponding macros in the 32 and 64 bit entry ASM.
- The C code entry points are consolidated as well with the help of
DEFINE_IDTENTRY*() macros. This allows to ensure at one central point
that all corresponding entry points share the same semantics. The
actual function body for most entry points is in an instrumentable
and sane state.
There are special macros for the more sensitive entry points,
e.g. INT3 and of course the nasty paranoid #NMI, #MCE, #DB and #DF.
They allow to put the whole entry instrumentation and RCU handling
into safe places instead of the previous pray that it is correct
approach.
- The INT3 text poke handling is now completely isolated and the
recursion issue banned. Aside of the entry rework this required other
isolation work, e.g. the ability to force inline bsearch.
- Prevent #DB on fragile entry code, entry relevant memory and disable
it on NMI, #MC entry, which allowed to get rid of the nested #DB IST
stack shifting hackery.
- A few other cleanups and enhancements which have been made possible
through this and already merged changes, e.g. consolidating and
further restricting the IDT code so the IDT table becomes RO after
init which removes yet another popular attack vector
- About 680 lines of ASM maze are gone.
There are a few open issues:
- An escape out of the noinstr section in the MCE handler which needs
some more thought but under the aspect that MCE is a complete
trainwreck by design and the propability to survive it is low, this was
not high on the priority list.
- Paravirtualization
When PV is enabled then objtool complains about a bunch of indirect
calls out of the noinstr section. There are a few straight forward
ways to fix this, but the other issues vs. general correctness were
more pressing than parawitz.
- KVM
KVM is inconsistent as well. Patches have been posted, but they have
not yet been commented on or picked up by the KVM folks.
- IDLE
Pretty much the same problems can be found in the low level idle code
especially the parts where RCU stopped watching. This was beyond the
scope of the more obvious and exposable problems and is on the todo
list.
The lesson learned from this brain melting exercise to morph the evolved
code base into something which can be validated and understood is that once
again the violation of the most important engineering principle
"correctness first" has caused quite a few people to spend valuable time on
problems which could have been avoided in the first place. The "features
first" tinkering mindset really has to stop.

handling in particular was completely unprotected and with the batched
update of trace events even more likely to expose to endless int3
recursion.
In parallel the RCU implications of instrumenting fragile entry code
came up in several discussions.
The conclusion of the x86 maintainer team was to go all the way and
make the protection against any form of instrumentation of fragile and
dangerous code pathes enforcable and verifiable by tooling.
A first batch of preparatory work hit mainline with commit
d5f744f9a2 ("Pull x86 entry code updates from Thomas Gleixner")
That (almost) full solution introduced a new code section
'.noinstr.text' into which all code which needs to be protected from
instrumentation of all sorts goes into. Any call into instrumentable
code out of this section has to be annotated. objtool has support to
validate this.
Kprobes now excludes this section fully which also prevents BPF from
fiddling with it and all 'noinstr' annotated functions also keep
ftrace off. The section, kprobes and objtool changes are already
merged.
The major changes coming with this are:
- Preparatory cleanups
- Annotating of relevant functions to move them into the
noinstr.text section or enforcing inlining by marking them
__always_inline so the compiler cannot misplace or instrument
them.
- Splitting and simplifying the idtentry macro maze so that it is
now clearly separated into simple exception entries and the more
interesting ones which use interrupt stacks and have the paranoid
handling vs. CR3 and GS.
- Move quite some of the low level ASM functionality into C code:
- enter_from and exit to user space handling. The ASM code now
calls into C after doing the really necessary ASM handling and
the return path goes back out without bells and whistels in
ASM.
- exception entry/exit got the equivivalent treatment
- move all IRQ tracepoints from ASM to C so they can be placed as
appropriate which is especially important for the int3
recursion issue.
- Consolidate the declaration and definition of entry points between
32 and 64 bit. They share a common header and macros now.
- Remove the extra device interrupt entry maze and just use the
regular exception entry code.
- All ASM entry points except NMI are now generated from the shared
header file and the corresponding macros in the 32 and 64 bit
entry ASM.
- The C code entry points are consolidated as well with the help of
DEFINE_IDTENTRY*() macros. This allows to ensure at one central
point that all corresponding entry points share the same
semantics. The actual function body for most entry points is in an
instrumentable and sane state.
There are special macros for the more sensitive entry points, e.g.
INT3 and of course the nasty paranoid #NMI, #MCE, #DB and #DF.
They allow to put the whole entry instrumentation and RCU handling
into safe places instead of the previous pray that it is correct
approach.
- The INT3 text poke handling is now completely isolated and the
recursion issue banned. Aside of the entry rework this required
other isolation work, e.g. the ability to force inline bsearch.
- Prevent #DB on fragile entry code, entry relevant memory and
disable it on NMI, #MC entry, which allowed to get rid of the
nested #DB IST stack shifting hackery.
- A few other cleanups and enhancements which have been made
possible through this and already merged changes, e.g.
consolidating and further restricting the IDT code so the IDT
table becomes RO after init which removes yet another popular
attack vector
- About 680 lines of ASM maze are gone.
There are a few open issues:
- An escape out of the noinstr section in the MCE handler which needs
some more thought but under the aspect that MCE is a complete
trainwreck by design and the propability to survive it is low, this
was not high on the priority list.
- Paravirtualization
When PV is enabled then objtool complains about a bunch of indirect
calls out of the noinstr section. There are a few straight forward
ways to fix this, but the other issues vs. general correctness were
more pressing than parawitz.
- KVM
KVM is inconsistent as well. Patches have been posted, but they
have not yet been commented on or picked up by the KVM folks.
- IDLE
Pretty much the same problems can be found in the low level idle
code especially the parts where RCU stopped watching. This was
beyond the scope of the more obvious and exposable problems and is
on the todo list.
The lesson learned from this brain melting exercise to morph the
evolved code base into something which can be validated and understood
is that once again the violation of the most important engineering
principle "correctness first" has caused quite a few people to spend
valuable time on problems which could have been avoided in the first
place. The "features first" tinkering mindset really has to stop.

Patch series "Add log level to show_stack()", v3.
Add log level argument to show_stack().
Done in three stages:
1. Introducing show_stack_loglvl() for every architecture
2. Migrating old users with an explicit log level
3. Renaming show_stack_loglvl() into show_stack()
Justification:
- It's a design mistake to move a business-logic decision into platform
realization detail.
- I have currently two patches sets that would benefit from this work:
Removing console_loglevel jumps in sysrq driver [1] Hung task warning
before panic [2] - suggested by Tetsuo (but he probably didn't realise
what it would involve).
- While doing (1), (2) the backtraces were adjusted to headers and other
messages for each situation - so there won't be a situation when the
backtrace is printed, but the headers are missing because they have
lesser log level (or the reverse).
- As the result in (2) plays with console_loglevel for kdb are removed.
The least important for upstream, but maybe still worth to note that every
company I've worked in so far had an off-list patch to print backtrace
with the needed log level (but only for the architecture they cared
about). If you have other ideas how you will benefit from show_stack()
with a log level - please, reply to this cover letter.
See also discussion on v1:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/20191106083538.z5nlpuf64cigxigh@pathway.suse.cz/
This patch (of 50):
print_ip_sym() needs to have a log level parameter to comply with other
parts being printed. Otherwise, half of the expected backtrace would be
printed and other may be missing with some logging level.
The following callee(s) are using now the adjusted log level:
- microblaze/unwind: the same level as headers & userspace unwind.
Note that pr_debug()'s there are for debugging the unwinder itself.
- nds32/traps: symbol addresses are printed with the same log level
as backtrace headers.
- lockdep: ip for locking issues is printed with the same log level
as other part of the warning.
- sched: ip where preemption was disabled is printed as error like
the rest part of the message.
- ftrace: bug reports are now consistent in the log level being used.

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.
This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

The following commit:
7f26482a87 ("locking/percpu-rwsem: Remove the embedded rwsem")
introduced task_struct memory leaks due to messing up the task_struct
refcount.
At the beginning of percpu_rwsem_wake_function(), it calls get_task_struct(),
but if the trylock failed, it will remain in the waitqueue. However, it
will run percpu_rwsem_wake_function() again with get_task_struct() to
increase the refcount but then only call put_task_struct() once the trylock
succeeded.
Fix it by adjusting percpu_rwsem_wake_function() a bit to guard against
when percpu_rwsem_wait() observing !private, terminating the wait and
doing a quick exit() while percpu_rwsem_wake_function() then doing
wake_up_process(p) as a use-after-free.

"The main changes in this cycle were:
- Continued user-access cleanups in the futex code.
- percpu-rwsem rewrite that uses its own waitqueue and atomic_t
instead of an embedded rwsem. This addresses a couple of
weaknesses, but the primary motivation was complications on the -rt
kernel.
- Introduce raw lock nesting detection on lockdep
(CONFIG_PROVE_RAW_LOCK_NESTING=y), document the raw_lock vs. normal
lock differences. This too originates from -rt.
- Reuse lockdep zapped chain_hlocks entries, to conserve RAM
footprint on distro-ish kernels running into the "BUG:
MAX_LOCKDEP_CHAIN_HLOCKS too low!" depletion of the lockdep
chain-entries pool.

Set current->irq_config = 1 for hrtimers which are not marked to expire in
hard interrupt context during hrtimer_init(). These timers will expire in
softirq context on PREEMPT_RT.
Setting this allows lockdep to differentiate these timers. If a timer is
marked to expire in hard interrupt context then the timer callback is not
supposed to acquire a regular spinlock instead of a raw_spinlock in the
expiry callback.

Extend lockdep to validate lock wait-type context.
The current wait-types are:
LD_WAIT_FREE, /* wait free, rcu etc.. */
LD_WAIT_SPIN, /* spin loops, raw_spinlock_t etc.. */
LD_WAIT_CONFIG, /* CONFIG_PREEMPT_LOCK, spinlock_t etc.. */
LD_WAIT_SLEEP, /* sleeping locks, mutex_t etc.. */
Where lockdep validates that the current lock (the one being acquired)
fits in the current wait-context (as generated by the held stack).
This ensures that there is no attempt to acquire mutexes while holding
spinlocks, to acquire spinlocks while holding raw_spinlocks and so on. In
other words, its a more fancy might_sleep().
Obviously RCU made the entire ordeal more complex than a simple single
value test because RCU can be acquired in (pretty much) any context and
while it presents a context to nested locks it is not the same as it
got acquired in.
Therefore its necessary to split the wait_type into two values, one
representing the acquire (outer) and one representing the nested context
(inner). For most 'normal' locks these two are the same.
[ To make static initialization easier we have the rule that:
.outer == INV means .outer == .inner; because INV == 0. ]
It further means that its required to find the minimal .inner of the held
stack to compare against the outer of the new lock; because while 'normal'
RCU presents a CONFIG type to nested locks, if it is taken while already
holding a SPIN type it obviously doesn't relax the rules.
Below is an example output generated by the trivial test code:
raw_spin_lock(&foo);
spin_lock(&bar);
spin_unlock(&bar);
raw_spin_unlock(&foo);
[ BUG: Invalid wait context ]
-----------------------------
swapper/0/1 is trying to lock:
ffffc90000013f20 (&bar){....}-{3:3}, at: kernel_init+0xdb/0x187
other info that might help us debug this:
1 lock held by swapper/0/1:
#0: ffffc90000013ee0 (&foo){+.+.}-{2:2}, at: kernel_init+0xd1/0x187
The way to read it is to look at the new -{n,m} part in the lock
description; -{3:3} for the attempted lock, and try and match that up to
the held locks, which in this case is the one: -{2,2}.
This tells that the acquiring lock requires a more relaxed environment than
presented by the lock stack.
Currently only the normal locks and RCU are converted, the rest of the
lockdep users defaults to .inner = INV which is ignored. More conversions
can be done when desired.
The check for spinlock_t nesting is not enabled by default. It's a separate
config option for now as there are known problems which are currently
addressed. The config option allows to identify these problems and to
verify that the solutions found are indeed solving them.
The config switch will be removed and the checks will permanently enabled
once the vast majority of issues has been addressed.

We must avoid any recursion into lockdep if KCSAN is enabled on utilities
used by lockdep. One manifestation of this is corruption of lockdep's
IRQ trace state (if TRACE_IRQFLAGS), resulting in spurious warnings
(see below). This commit fixes this by:
1. Using raw_local_irq{save,restore} in kcsan_setup_watchpoint().
2. Disabling lockdep in kcsan_report().
Tested with:
CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCKDEP=y
CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS=y
This fix eliminates spurious warnings such as the following one:

nmi_enter() does lockdep_off() and hence lockdep ignores everything.
And NMI context makes it impossible to do full IN-NMI tracking like we
do IN-HARDIRQ, that could result in graph_lock recursion.
However, since look_up_lock_class() is lockless, we can find the class
of a lock that has prior use and detect IN-NMI after USED, just not
USED after IN-NMI.
NOTE: By shifting the lockdep_off() recursion count to bit-16, we can
easily differentiate between actual recursion and off.

The warning got triggered because lockdep_count_forward_deps() call

a lockdep internal function (__bfs()) is checked by lockdep, which is
unexpected, and the inconsistency between the irq-off state and the
state traced by lockdep caused the warning.
Apart from this warning, lockdep internal functions like __bfs() should
always be protected by current->lockdep_recursion to avoid potential
deadlocks and data inconsistency, therefore add the
current->lockdep_recursion on-and-off section to protect __bfs() in both
lockdep_count_forward_deps() and lockdep_count_backward_deps()

Both lock_torture_writer() and lock_torture_reader() use the "static"
keyword on their DEFINE_TORTURE_RANDOM(rand) declarations, which means
that a single instance of a random-number generator are shared among all
the writers and another is shared among all the readers. Unfortunately,
this random-number generator was not designed for concurrent access.
This commit therefore removes both "static" keywords so that each reader
and each writer gets its own random-number generator.

The __torture_print_stats() function in locktorture.c carefully
initializes local variable "min" to statp[0].n_lock_acquired, but
then compares it to statp[i].n_lock_fail. Given that the .n_lock_fail
field should normally be zero, and given the initialization, it seems
reasonable to display the maximum and minimum number acquisitions
instead of miscomputing the maximum and minimum number of failures.
This commit therefore switches from failures to acquisitions.
And this turns out to be not only a day-zero bug, but entirely my
own fault. I hate it when that happens!

The filesystem freezer uses percpu-rwsem in a way that is effectively
write_non_owner() and achieves this with a few horrible hacks that
rely on the rwsem (!percpu) implementation.
When PREEMPT_RT replaces the rwsem implementation with a PI aware
variant this comes apart.
Remove the embedded rwsem and implement it using a waitqueue and an
atomic_t.
- make readers_block an atomic, and use it, with the waitqueue
for a blocking test-and-set write-side.
- have the read-side wait for the 'lock' state to clear.
Have the waiters use FIFO queueing and mark them (reader/writer) with
a new WQ_FLAG. Use a custom wake_function to wake either a single
writer or all readers until a writer.

Once a lock class is zapped, all the lock chains that include the zapped
class are essentially useless. The lock_chain structure itself can be
reused, but not the corresponding chain_hlocks[] entries. Over time,
we will run out of chain_hlocks entries while there are still plenty
of other lockdep array entries available.
To fix this imbalance, we have to make chain_hlocks entries reusable
just like the others. As the freed chain_hlocks entries are in blocks of
various lengths. A simple bitmap like the one used in the other reusable
lockdep arrays isn't applicable. Instead the chain_hlocks entries are
put into bucketed lists (MAX_CHAIN_BUCKETS) of chain blocks. Bucket 0
is the variable size bucket which houses chain blocks of size larger than
MAX_CHAIN_BUCKETS sorted in decreasing size order. Initially, the whole
array is in one chain block (the primordial chain block) in bucket 0.
The minimum size of a chain block is 2 chain_hlocks entries. That will
be the minimum allocation size. In other word, allocation requests
for one chain_hlocks entry will cause 2-entry block to be returned and
hence 1 entry will be wasted.
Allocation requests for the chain_hlocks are fulfilled first by looking
for chain block of matching size. If not found, the first chain block
from bucket[0] (the largest one) is split. That can cause hlock entries
fragmentation and reduce allocation efficiency if a chain block of size >
MAX_CHAIN_BUCKETS is ever zapped and put back to after the primordial
chain block. So the MAX_CHAIN_BUCKETS must be large enough that this
should seldom happen.
By reusing the chain_hlocks entries, we are able to handle workloads
that add and zap a lot of lock classes without the risk of running out
of chain_hlocks entries as long as the total number of outstanding lock
classes at any time remain within a reasonable limit.
Two new tracking counters, nr_free_chain_hlocks & nr_large_chain_blocks,
are added to track the total number of chain_hlocks entries in the
free bucketed lists and the number of large chain blocks in buckets[0]
respectively. The nr_free_chain_hlocks replaces nr_chain_hlocks.
The nr_large_chain_blocks counter enables to see if we should increase
the number of buckets (MAX_CHAIN_BUCKETS) available so as to avoid to
avoid the fragmentation problem in bucket[0].
An internal nfsd test that ran for more than an hour and kept on
loading and unloading kernel modules could cause the following message
to be displayed.
[ 4318.443670] BUG: MAX_LOCKDEP_CHAIN_HLOCKS too low!
The patched kernel was able to complete the test with a lot of free
chain_hlocks entries to spare:
# cat /proc/lockdep_stats
:
dependency chains: 18867 [max: 65536]
dependency chain hlocks: 74926 [max: 327680]
dependency chain hlocks lost: 0
:
zapped classes: 1541
zapped lock chains: 56765
large chain blocks: 1
By changing MAX_CHAIN_BUCKETS to 3 and add a counter for the size of the
largest chain block. The system still worked and We got the following
lockdep_stats data:
dependency chains: 18601 [max: 65536]
dependency chain hlocks used: 73133 [max: 327680]
dependency chain hlocks lost: 0
:
zapped classes: 1541
zapped lock chains: 56702
large chain blocks: 45165
large chain block size: 20165
By running the test again, I was indeed able to cause chain_hlocks
entries to get lost:
dependency chain hlocks used: 74806 [max: 327680]
dependency chain hlocks lost: 575
:
large chain blocks: 48737
large chain block size: 7
Due to the fragmentation, it is possible that the
"MAX_LOCKDEP_CHAIN_HLOCKS too low!" error can happen even if a lot of
of chain_hlocks entries appear to be free.
Fortunately, a MAX_CHAIN_BUCKETS value of 16 should be big enough that
few variable sized chain blocks, other than the initial one, should
ever be present in bucket 0.

If a lock chain contains a class that is zapped, the whole lock chain is
likely to be invalid. If the zapped class is at the end of the chain,
the partial chain without the zapped class should have been stored
already as the current code will store all its predecessor chains. If
the zapped class is somewhere in the middle, there is no guarantee that
the partial chain will actually happen. It may just clutter up the hash
and make searching slower. I would rather prefer storing the chain only
when it actually happens.
So just dump the corresponding chain_hlocks entries for now. A latter
patch will try to reuse the freed chain_hlocks entries.
This patch also changes the type of nr_chain_hlocks to unsigned integer
to be consistent with the other counters.

The whole point of the lockdep dynamic key patch is to allow unused
locks to be removed from the lockdep data buffers so that existing
buffer space can be reused. However, there is no way to find out how

There are currently three counters to track the IRQ context of a lock
chain - nr_hardirq_chains, nr_softirq_chains and nr_process_chains.
They are incremented when a new lock chain is added, but they are
not decremented when a lock chain is removed. That causes some of the
statistic counts reported by /proc/lockdep_stats to be incorrect.
IRQ
Fix that by decrementing the right counter when a lock chain is removed.
Since inc_chains() no longer accesses hardirq_context and softirq_context
directly, it is moved out from the CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS conditional
compilation block.

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"Just a handful of changes in this cycle: an ARM64 performance
optimization, a comment fix and a debug output fix"
* 'locking-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip:
locking/osq: Use optimized spinning loop for arm64
locking/qspinlock: Fix inaccessible URL of MCS lock paper
locking/lockdep: Fix lockdep_stats indentation problem
Arm64 has a more optimized spinning loop (atomic_cond_read_acquire)
using wfe for spinlock that can boost performance of sibling threads
by putting the current cpu to a wait state that is broken only when
the monitored variable changes or an external event happens.
OSQ has a more complicated spinning loop. Besides the lock value, it
also checks for need_resched() and vcpu_is_preempted(). The check for
need_resched() is not a problem as it is only set by the tick interrupt
handler. That will be detected by the spinning cpu right after iret.
The vcpu_is_preempted() check, however, is a problem as changes to the
preempt state of of previous node will not affect the wait state. For
ARM64, vcpu_is_preempted is not currently defined and so is a no-op.
Will has indicated that he is planning to para-virtualize wfe instead
of defining vcpu_is_preempted for PV support. So just add a comment in
arch/arm64/include/asm/spinlock.h to indicate that vcpu_is_preempted()
should not be defined as suggested.
On a 2-socket 56-core 224-thread ARM64 system, a kernel mutex locking
microbenchmark was run for 10s with and without the patch. The
performance numbers before patch were:
Running locktest with mutex [runtime = 10s, load = 1]
Threads = 224, Min/Mean/Max = 316/123,143/2,121,269
Threads = 224, Total Rate = 2,757 kop/s; Percpu Rate = 12 kop/s
After patch, the numbers were:
Running locktest with mutex [runtime = 10s, load = 1]
Threads = 224, Min/Mean/Max = 334/147,836/1,304,787
Threads = 224, Total Rate = 3,311 kop/s; Percpu Rate = 15 kop/s
So there was about 20% performance improvement.

The commit 91d2a812df ("locking/rwsem: Make handoff writer
optimistically spin on owner") will allow a recently woken up waiting
writer to spin on the owner. Unfortunately, if the owner happens to be
RWSEM_OWNER_UNKNOWN, the code will incorrectly spin on it leading to a
kernel crash. This is fixed by passing the proper non-spinnable bits
to rwsem_spin_on_owner() so that RWSEM_OWNER_UNKNOWN will be treated
as a non-spinnable target.

If the lockdep code is really running out of the stack_trace entries,
it is likely that buffer overrun can happen and the data immediately
after stack_trace[] will be corrupted.
If there is less than LOCK_TRACE_SIZE_IN_LONGS entries left before
the call to save_trace(), the max_entries computation will leave it
with a very large positive number because of its unsigned nature. The
subsequent call to stack_trace_save() will then corrupt the data after
stack_trace[]. Fix that by changing max_entries to a signed integer
and check for negative value before calling stack_trace_save().

This ended up causing some noise in places such as rxrpc running in softirq.
The warning is misleading in this case as the mutex trylock and unlock
operations are done within the same context; and therefore we need not
worry about the PI-boosting issues that comes along with no single-owner
lock guarantees.
While we don't want to support this in mutexes, there is no way out of
this yet; so lets get rid of the WARNs for now, as it is only fair to
code that has historically relied on non-preemptible softirq guarantees.
In addition, changing the lock type is also unviable: exclusive rwsems
have the same issue (just not the WARN_ON) and counting semaphores
would introduce a performance hit as mutexes are a lot more optimized.

As a side-effect, with KCSAN, this eventually locks up the console, most
likely due to deadlock, e.g. .. -> printk lock -> spinlock_debug ->
KCSAN detects data race -> kcsan_print_report() -> printk lock ->
deadlock.
This fix will 1) avoid the data races, and 2) allow using lock debugging
together with KCSAN.

Exit from aggressive wait-early mechanism can result in premature yield
and extra scheduling latency.
Actually, only 6% of wait_early events are caused by vcpu_is_preempted()
being true. However, when one vCPU voluntarily releases its vCPU, all
the subsequently waiters in the queue will do the same and the cascading
effect leads to bad performance.

moving struct mutex_waiter a few less common CONFIGs would no longer
build.

__mutex_owner() should only be used by the mutex api's.
So, to put this restiction let's move the __mutex_owner()
function definition from linux/mutex.h to mutex.c file.
There exist functions that uses __mutex_owner() like
mutex_is_locked() and mutex_trylock_recursive(), So
to keep legacy thing intact move them as well and
export them.
Move mutex_waiter structure also to keep it private to the
file.

Currently rwsems is the only locking primitive that lacks this
debug feature. Add it under CONFIG_DEBUG_RWSEMS and do the magic
checking in the locking fastpath (trylock) operation such that
we cover all cases. The unlocking part is pretty straightforward.

When the handoff bit is set by a writer, no other tasks other than
the setting writer itself is allowed to acquire the lock. If the
to-be-handoff'ed writer goes to sleep, there will be a wakeup latency
period where the lock is free, but no one can acquire it. That is less
than ideal.
To reduce that latency, the handoff writer will now optimistically spin
on the owner if it happens to be a on-cpu writer. It will spin until
it releases the lock and the to-be-handoff'ed writer can then acquire
the lock immediately without any delay. Of course, if the owner is not
a on-cpu writer, the to-be-handoff'ed writer will have to sleep anyway.
The optimistic spinning code is also modified to not stop spinning
when the handoff bit is set. This will prevent an occasional setting of
handoff bit from causing a bunch of optimistic spinners from entering
into the wait queue causing significant reduction in throughput.
On a 1-socket 22-core 44-thread Skylake system, the AIM7 shared_memory
workload was run with 7000 users. The throughput (jobs/min) of the
following kernels were as follows:
1) 5.2-rc6
- 8,092,486
2) 5.2-rc6 + tip's rwsem patches
- 7,567,568
3) 5.2-rc6 + tip's rwsem patches + this patch
- 7,954,545
Using perf-record(1), the %cpu time used by rwsem_down_write_slowpath(),
rwsem_down_write_failed() and their callees for the 3 kernels were 1.70%,
5.46% and 2.08% respectively.

Although commit 669de8bda8 ("kernel/workqueue: Use dynamic lockdep keys
for workqueues") unregisters dynamic lockdep keys when a workqueue is
destroyed, a side effect of that commit is that all stack traces
associated with the lockdep key are leaked when a workqueue is destroyed.
Fix this by storing each unique stack trace once. Other changes in this
patch are:
- Use NULL instead of { .nr_entries = 0 } to represent 'no trace'.
- Store a pointer to a stack trace in struct lock_class and struct
lock_list instead of storing 'nr_entries' and 'offset'.
This patch avoids that the following program triggers the "BUG:
MAX_STACK_TRACE_ENTRIES too low!" complaint:
#include <fcntl.h>
#include <unistd.h>
int main()
{
for (;;) {
int fd = open("/dev/infiniband/rdma_cm", O_RDWR);
close(fd);
}
}

LTP mtest06 has been observed to occasionally hit "still mapped when
deleted" and following BUG_ON on arm64.
The extra mapcount originated from pagefault handler, which handled
pagefault for vma that has already been detached. vma is detached
under mmap_sem write lock by detach_vmas_to_be_unmapped(), which
also invalidates vmacache.
When the pagefault handler (under mmap_sem read lock) calls
find_vma(), vmacache_valid() wrongly reports vmacache as valid.
After rwsem down_read() returns via 'queue empty' path (as of v5.2),
it does so without an ACQUIRE on sem->count:
down_read()
__down_read()
rwsem_down_read_failed()
__rwsem_down_read_failed_common()
raw_spin_lock_irq(&sem->wait_lock);
if (list_empty(&sem->wait_list)) {
if (atomic_long_read(&sem->count) >= 0) {
raw_spin_unlock_irq(&sem->wait_lock);
return sem;
The problem can be reproduced by running LTP mtest06 in a loop and
building the kernel (-j $NCPUS) in parallel. It does reproduces since
v4.20 on arm64 HPE Apollo 70 (224 CPUs, 256GB RAM, 2 nodes). It
triggers reliably in about an hour.
The patched kernel ran fine for 10+ hours.

For writer, the owner value is cleared on unlock. For reader, it is
left intact on unlock for providing better debugging aid on crash dump
and the unlock of one reader may not mean the lock is free.
As a result, the owner_on_cpu() shouldn't be used on read-owner
as the task pointer value may not be valid and it might have
been freed. That is the case in rwsem_spin_on_owner(), but not in
rwsem_can_spin_on_owner(). This can lead to use-after-free error from
KASAN. For example,
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in rwsem_down_write_slowpath

Most of the stuff here is just to make Sphinx to properly

not requiring massive changes in order to be parsed.
The conversion is actually:
- add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs;
- fix tables markups;
- add some lists markups;
- mark literal blocks;
- adjust title markups.

The stats variable nr_unused_locks is incremented every time a new lock
class is register and decremented when the lock is first used in
__lock_acquire(). And after all, it is shown and checked in lockdep_stats.
However, under configurations that either CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS or
CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING is not defined:
The commit:
0918065151 ("locking/lockdep: Consolidate lock usage bit initialization")
missed marking the LOCK_USED flag at IRQ usage initialization because
as mark_usage() is not called. And the commit:
886532aee3 ("locking/lockdep: Move mark_lock() inside CONFIG_TRACE_IRQFLAGS && CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING")
further made mark_lock() not defined such that the LOCK_USED cannot be
marked at all when the lock is first acquired.
As a result, we fix this by not showing and checking the stats under such
configurations for lockdep_stats.

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:
"The main changes in this cycle are:
- rwsem scalability improvements, phase #2, by Waiman Long, which are
rather impressive:
"On a 2-socket 40-core 80-thread Skylake system with 40 reader
and writer locking threads, the min/mean/max locking operations
done in a 5-second testing window before the patchset were:
40 readers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 1,807/1,808/1,810
40 writers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 1,807/50,344/151,255
After the patchset, they became:
40 readers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 30,057/31,359/32,741
40 writers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 94,466/95,845/97,098"
There's a lot of changes to the locking implementation that makes
it similar to qrwlock, including owner handoff for more fair
locking.
Another microbenchmark shows how across the spectrum the
improvements are:
"With a locking microbenchmark running on 5.1 based kernel, the
total locking rates (in kops/s) on a 2-socket Skylake system
with equal numbers of readers and writers (mixed) before and
after this patchset were:
# of Threads Before Patch After Patch

8 802 3,622
16 729 3,359
32 319 2,826
64 102 2,744"
The changes are extensive and the patch-set has been through
several iterations addressing various locking workloads. There
might be more regressions, but unless they are pathological I
believe we want to use this new implementation as the baseline
going forward.
- jump-label optimizations by Daniel Bristot de Oliveira: the primary
motivation was to remove IPI disturbance of isolated RT-workload
CPUs, which resulted in the implementation of batched jump-label
updates. Beyond the improvement of the real-time characteristics
kernel, in one test this patchset improved static key update
overhead from 57 msecs to just 1.4 msecs - which is a nice speedup
as well.
- atomic64_t cross-arch type cleanups by Mark Rutland: over the last
~10 years of atomic64_t existence the various types used by the
APIs only had to be self-consistent within each architecture -
which means they became wildly inconsistent across architectures.
Mark puts and end to this by reworking all the atomic64
implementations to use 's64' as the base type for atomic64_t, and
to ensure that this type is consistently used for parameters and
return values in the API, avoiding further problems in this area.
- A large set of small improvements to lockdep by Yuyang Du: type
cleanups, output cleanups, function return type and othr cleanups
all around the place.
- A set of percpu ops cleanups and fixes by Peter Zijlstra.
- Misc other changes - please see the Git log for more details"

The upper bits of the count field is used as reader count. When
sufficient number of active readers are present, the most significant
bit will be set and the count becomes negative. If the number of active
readers keep on piling up, we may eventually overflow the reader counts.
This is not likely to happen unless the number of bits reserved for
reader count is reduced because those bits are need for other purpose.
To prevent this count overflow from happening, the most significant
bit is now treated as a guard bit (RWSEM_FLAG_READFAIL). Read-lock
attempts will now fail for both the fast and slow paths whenever this
bit is set. So all those extra readers will be put to sleep in the wait
list. Wakeup will not happen until the reader count reaches 0.

Reader optimistic spinning is helpful when the reader critical section
is short and there aren't that many readers around. It makes readers
relatively more preferred than writers. When a writer times out spinning
on a reader-owned lock and set the nospinnable bits, there are two main
reasons for that.
1) The reader critical section is long, perhaps the task sleeps after
acquiring the read lock.
2) There are just too many readers contending the lock causing it to
take a while to service all of them.
In the former case, long reader critical section will impede the progress
of writers which is usually more important for system performance.
In the later case, reader optimistic spinning tends to make the reader
groups that contain readers that acquire the lock together smaller
leading to more of them. That may hurt performance in some cases. In
other words, the setting of nonspinnable bits indicates that reader
optimistic spinning may not be helpful for those workloads that cause it.
Therefore, any writers that have observed the setting of the writer
nonspinnable bit for a given rwsem after they fail to acquire the lock
via optimistic spinning will set the reader nonspinnable bit once they
acquire the write lock. Similarly, readers that observe the setting
of reader nonspinnable bit at slowpath entry will also set the reader
nonspinnable bit when they acquire the read lock via the wakeup path.
Once the reader nonspinnable bit is on, it will only be reset when
a writer is able to acquire the rwsem in the fast path or somehow a
reader or writer in the slowpath doesn't observe the nonspinable bit.
This is to discourage reader optmistic spinning on that particular
rwsem and make writers more preferred. This adaptive disabling of reader
optimistic spinning will alleviate some of the negative side effect of
this feature.
In addition, this patch tries to make readers in the spinning queue
follow the phase-fair principle after quitting optimistic spinning
by checking if another reader has somehow acquired a read lock after
this reader enters the optimistic spinning queue. If so and the rwsem
is still reader-owned, this reader is in the right read-phase and can
attempt to acquire the lock.
On a 2-socket 40-core 80-thread Skylake system, the page_fault1 test of
the will-it-scale benchmark was run with various number of threads. The
number of operations done before reader optimistic spinning patches,
this patch and after this patch were:

80 9508864 6739559 8107025 -29.1%/+20.3%
This patch doesn't recover all the lost performance, but it is more
than half. Given the fact that reader optimistic spinning does benefit
some workloads, this is a good compromise.
Using the rwsem locking microbenchmark with very short critical section,
this patch doesn't have too much impact on locking performance as shown
by the locking rates (kops/s) below with equal numbers of readers and
writers before and after this patch:

When running the locking microbenchmark with 40 dedicated reader and writer
threads, however, the reader performance is curtailed to favor the writer.

When the rwsem is owned by reader, writers stop optimistic spinning
simply because there is no easy way to figure out if all the readers
are actively running or not. However, there are scenarios where
the readers are unlikely to sleep and optimistic spinning can help
performance.
This patch provides a simple mechanism for spinning on a reader-owned
rwsem by a writer. It is a time threshold based spinning where the
allowable spinning time can vary from 10us to 25us depending on the
condition of the rwsem.
When the time threshold is exceeded, the nonspinnable bits will be set
in the owner field to indicate that no more optimistic spinning will
be allowed on this rwsem until it becomes writer owned again. Not even
readers is allowed to acquire the reader-locked rwsem by optimistic
spinning for fairness.
We also want a writer to acquire the lock after the readers hold the
lock for a relatively long time. In order to give preference to writers
under such a circumstance, the single RWSEM_NONSPINNABLE bit is now split
into two - one for reader and one for writer. When optimistic spinning
is disabled, both bits will be set. When the reader count drop down
to 0, the writer nonspinnable bit will be cleared to allow writers to
spin on the lock, but not the readers. When a writer acquires the lock,
it will write its own task structure pointer into sem->owner and clear
the reader nonspinnable bit in the process.
The time taken for each iteration of the reader-owned rwsem spinning
loop varies. Below are sample minimum elapsed times for 16 iterations
of the loop.
System Time for 16 Iterations
------ ----------------------
1-socket Skylake ~800ns
4-socket Broadwell ~300ns
2-socket ThunderX2 (arm64) ~250ns
When the lock cacheline is contended, we can see up to almost 10X
increase in elapsed time. So 25us will be at most 500, 1300 and 1600
iterations for each of the above systems.
With a locking microbenchmark running on 5.1 based kernel, the total
locking rates (in kops/s) on a 8-socket IvyBridge-EX system with
equal numbers of readers and writers before and after this patch were
as follows:
# of Threads Pre-patch Post-patch

32 458 7,316
64 208 520
128 168 425
240 143 474
This patch gives a big boost in performance for mixed reader/writer
workloads.
With 32 locking threads, the rwsem lock event data were:
rwsem_opt_fail=79850
rwsem_opt_nospin=5069
rwsem_opt_rlock=597484
rwsem_opt_wlock=957339
rwsem_sleep_reader=57782
rwsem_sleep_writer=55663
With 64 locking threads, the data looked like:
rwsem_opt_fail=346723
rwsem_opt_nospin=6293
rwsem_opt_rlock=1127119
rwsem_opt_wlock=1400628
rwsem_sleep_reader=308201
rwsem_sleep_writer=72281
So a lot more threads acquired the lock in the slowpath and more threads
went to sleep.

The rwsem->owner contains not just the task structure pointer, it also
holds some flags for storing the current state of the rwsem. Some of
the flags may have to be atomically updated. To reflect the new reality,
the owner is now changed to an atomic_long_t type.
New helper functions are added to properly separate out the task
structure pointer and the embedded flags.

Bit 1 of sem->owner (RWSEM_ANONYMOUSLY_OWNED) is used to designate an
anonymous owner - readers or an anonymous writer. The setting of this
anonymous bit is used as an indicator that optimistic spinning cannot
be done on this rwsem.
With the upcoming reader optimistic spinning patches, a reader-owned
rwsem can be spinned on for a limit period of time. We still need
this bit to indicate a rwsem is nonspinnable, but not setting this
bit loses its meaning that the owner is known. So rename the bit
to RWSEM_NONSPINNABLE to clarify its meaning.
This patch also fixes a DEBUG_RWSEMS_WARN_ON() bug in __up_write().

When the front of the wait queue is a reader, other readers
immediately following the first reader will also be woken up at the
same time. However, if there is a writer in between. Those readers
behind the writer will not be woken up.
Because of optimistic spinning, the lock acquisition order is not FIFO
anyway. The lock handoff mechanism will ensure that lock starvation
will not happen.
Assuming that the lock hold times of the other readers still in the
queue will be about the same as the readers that are being woken up,
there is really not much additional cost other than the additional
latency due to the wakeup of additional tasks by the waker. Therefore
all the readers up to a maximum of 256 in the queue are woken up when
the first waiter is a reader to improve reader throughput. This is
somewhat similar in concept to a phase-fair R/W lock.
With a locking microbenchmark running on 5.1 based kernel, the total
locking rates (in kops/s) on a 8-socket IvyBridge-EX system with

An RT task can do optimistic spinning only if the lock holder is
actually running. If the state of the lock holder isn't known, there
is a possibility that high priority of the RT task may block forward
progress of the lock holder if it happens to reside on the same CPU.
This will lead to deadlock. So we have to make sure that an RT task
will not spin on a reader-owned rwsem.
When the owner is temporarily set to NULL, there are two cases
where we may want to continue spinning:
1) The lock owner is in the process of releasing the lock, sem->owner
is cleared but the lock has not been released yet.
2) The lock was free and owner cleared, but another task just comes
in and acquire the lock before we try to get it. The new owner may
be a spinnable writer.
So an RT task is now made to retry one more time to see if it can
acquire the lock or continue spinning on the new owning writer.
When testing on a 8-socket IvyBridge-EX system, the one additional retry
seems to improve locking performance of RT write locking threads under
heavy contentions. The table below shows the locking rates (in kops/s)
with various write locking threads before and after the patch.

With the use of wake_q, we can do task wakeups without holding the
wait_lock. There is one exception in the rwsem code, though. It is
when the writer in the slowpath detects that there are waiters ahead
but the rwsem is not held by a writer. This can lead to a long wait_lock
hold time especially when a large number of readers are to be woken up.
Remediate this situation by releasing the wait_lock before waking
up tasks and re-acquiring it afterward. The rwsem_try_write_lock()
function is also modified to read the rwsem count directly to avoid
stale count value.

Because of writer lock stealing, it is possible that a constant
stream of incoming writers will cause a waiting writer or reader to
wait indefinitely leading to lock starvation.
This patch implements a lock handoff mechanism to disable lock stealing
and force lock handoff to the first waiter or waiters (for readers)
in the queue after at least a 4ms waiting period unless it is a RT
writer task which doesn't need to wait. The waiting period is used to
avoid discouraging lock stealing too much to affect performance.
The setting and clearing of the handoff bit is serialized by the
wait_lock. So racing is not possible.
A rwsem microbenchmark was run for 5 seconds on a 2-socket 40-core
80-thread Skylake system with a v5.1 based kernel and 240 write_lock
threads with 5us sleep critical section.
Before the patch, the min/mean/max numbers of locking operations for
the locking threads were 1/7,792/173,696. After the patch, the figures
became 5,842/6,542/7,458. It can be seen that the rwsem became much
more fair, though there was a drop of about 16% in the mean locking
operations done which was a tradeoff of having better fairness.
Making the waiter set the handoff bit right after the first wakeup can
impact performance especially with a mixed reader/writer workload. With
the same microbenchmark with short critical section and equal number of
reader and writer threads (40/40), the reader/writer locking operation
counts with the current patch were:
40 readers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 1,793/1,794/1,796
40 writers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 1,793/34,956/86,081
By making waiter set handoff bit immediately after wakeup:
40 readers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 43/44/46
40 writers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 43/1,263/3,191

After merging all the relevant rwsem code into one single file, there
are a number of optimizations and cleanups that can be done:
1) Remove all the EXPORT_SYMBOL() calls for functions that are not
accessed elsewhere.
2) Remove all the __visible tags as none of the functions will be
called from assembly code anymore.
3) Make all the internal functions static.
4) Remove some unneeded blank lines.
5) Remove the intermediate rwsem_down_{read|write}_failed*() functions
and rename __rwsem_down_{read|write}_failed_common() to
rwsem_down_{read|write}_slowpath().
6) Remove "__" prefix of __rwsem_mark_wake().
7) Use atomic_long_try_cmpxchg_acquire() as much as possible.
8) Remove the rwsem_rtrylock and rwsem_wtrylock lock events as they
are not that useful.
That enables the compiler to do better optimization and reduce code
size. The text+data size of rwsem.o on an x86-64 machine with gcc8 was
reduced from 10237 bytes to 5030 bytes with this change.

Now we only have one implementation of rwsem. Even though we still use
xadd to handle reader locking, we use cmpxchg for writer instead. So
the filename rwsem-xadd.c is not strictly correct. Also no one outside
of the rwsem code need to know the internal implementation other than
function prototypes for two internal functions that are called directly
from percpu-rwsem.c.
So the rwsem-xadd.c and rwsem.h files are now merged into rwsem.c in
the following order:
<upper part of rwsem.h>
<rwsem-xadd.c>
<lower part of rwsem.h>
<rwsem.c>
The rwsem.h file now contains only 2 function declarations for
__up_read() and __down_read().
This is a code relocation patch with no code change at all except
making __up_read() and __down_read() non-static functions so they
can be used by percpu-rwsem.c.

The current way of using various reader, writer and waiting biases
in the rwsem code are confusing and hard to understand. I have to
reread the rwsem count guide in the rwsem-xadd.c file from time to
time to remind myself how this whole thing works. It also makes the
rwsem code harder to be optimized.
To make rwsem more sane, a new locking scheme similar to the one in
qrwlock is now being used. The atomic long count has the following
bit definitions:
Bit 0 - writer locked bit
Bit 1 - waiters present bit
Bits 2-7 - reserved for future extension
Bits 8-X - reader count (24/56 bits)
The cmpxchg instruction is now used to acquire the write lock. The read
lock is still acquired with xadd instruction, so there is no change here.
This scheme will allow up to 16M/64P active readers which should be
more than enough. We can always use some more reserved bits if necessary.
With that change, we can deterministically know if a rwsem has been
write-locked. Looking at the count alone, however, one cannot determine
for certain if a rwsem is owned by readers or not as the readers that
set the reader count bits may be in the process of backing out. So we
still need the reader-owned bit in the owner field to be sure.
With a locking microbenchmark running on 5.1 based kernel, the total
locking rates (in kops/s) of the benchmark on a 8-socket 120-core
IvyBridge-EX system before and after the patch were as follows:
Before Patch After Patch
# of Threads wlock rlock wlock rlock
------------ ----- ----- ----- -----
1 30,659 31,341 31,055 31,283
2 8,909 16,457 9,884 17,659
4 9,028 15,823 8,933 20,233
8 8,410 14,212 7,230 17,140
16 8,217 25,240 7,479 24,607
The locking rates of the benchmark on a Power8 system were as follows:
Before Patch After Patch
# of Threads wlock rlock wlock rlock
------------ ----- ----- ----- -----
1 12,963 13,647 13,275 13,601
2 7,570 11,569 7,902 10,829
4 5,232 5,516 5,466 5,435
8 5,233 3,386 5,467 3,168
The locking rates of the benchmark on a 2-socket ARM64 system were
as follows:
Before Patch After Patch
# of Threads wlock rlock wlock rlock
------------ ----- ----- ----- -----
1 21,495 21,046 21,524 21,074
2 5,293 10,502 5,333 10,504
4 5,325 11,463 5,358 11,631
8 5,391 11,712 5,470 11,680
The performance are roughly the same before and after the patch. There
are run-to-run variations in performance. Runs with higher variances
usually have higher throughput.

After the following commit:
59aabfc7e9 ("locking/rwsem: Reduce spinlock contention in wakeup after up_read()/up_write()")
the rwsem_wake() forgoes doing a wakeup if the wait_lock cannot be directly
acquired and an optimistic spinning locker is present. This can help performance
by avoiding spinning on the wait_lock when it is contended.
With the later commit:
133e89ef5e ("locking/rwsem: Enable lockless waiter wakeup(s)")
the performance advantage of the above optimization diminishes as the average
wait_lock hold time become much shorter.
With a later patch that supports rwsem lock handoff, we can no
longer relies on the fact that the presence of an optimistic spinning
locker will ensure that the lock will be acquired by a task soon and
rwsem_wake() will be called later on to wake up waiters. This can lead
to missed wakeup and application hang.
So the original 59aabfc7e9 commit has to be reverted.

The owner field in the rw_semaphore structure is used primarily for
optimistic spinning. However, identifying the rwsem owner can also be
helpful in debugging as well as tracing locking related issues when
analyzing crash dump. The owner field may also store state information
that can be important to the operation of the rwsem.
So the owner field is now made a permanent member of the rw_semaphore
structure irrespective of CONFIG_RWSEM_SPIN_ON_OWNER.

The problem is that the hlock merging happening at * updates the
references for test_ww_class incorrectly to 3 whereas it should've
updated it to 4 (representing all the instances for ww_ctx and
ww_lock_[abc]).
Fix this by updating the references during merging correctly taking into
account that we can have non-zero references (both for the hlock that we
merge into another hlock or for the hlock we are merging into).

DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(curr->lockdep_depth != depth - 1);
The problem is that the WARN check doesn't take into account the merging
of ww_lock_a and ww_lock_b which results in decreasing curr->lockdep_depth
by 2 not only 1.
Note that the following sequence doesn't trigger the WARN, since there
won't be any hlock merging.
ww_acquire_init(&ww_ctx, &test_ww_class);
ww_mutex_init(&ww_lock_a, &test_ww_class);

ww_mutex_unlock(&ww_lock_b);
ww_mutex_unlock(&ww_lock_a);
mutex_unlock(&lock_c);
ww_acquire_fini(&ww_ctx);
In general both of the above two sequences are valid and shouldn't
trigger any lockdep warning.
Fix this by taking the decrement due to the hlock merging into account
during lock release and hlock class re-setting. Merging can't happen
during lock downgrading since there won't be a new possibility to merge
hlocks in that case, so add a WARN if merging still happens then.

In mark_lock_irq(), the following checks are performed:
----------------------------------
| -> | unsafe | read unsafe |
|----------------------------------|
| safe | F B | F* B* |
|----------------------------------|
| read safe | F? B* | - |
----------------------------------
Where:
F: check_usage_forwards
B: check_usage_backwards
*: check enabled by STRICT_READ_CHECKS
?: check enabled by the !dir condition
From checking point of view, the special F? case does not make sense,
whereas it perhaps is made for peroformance concern. As later patch will
address this issue, remove this exception, which makes the checks
consistent later.
With STRICT_READ_CHECKS = 1 which is default, there is no functional
change.
