* Docs/RCU/rculist_nulls: Fix text about atomic_set_release()SeongJae Park2023-07-141-2/+4

* docs/RCU/rcubarrier: Right-adjust line numbers in code snippetsAkira Yokosawa2023-01-051-84/+84
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Line numbers in code snippets in rcubarrier.rst have beed left adjusted since commit 4af498306ffd ("doc: Convert to rcubarrier.txt to ReST"). This might have been because right adjusting them had confused Sphinx. The rules around a literal block in reST are: - Need a blank line above it. - A line with the same indent level as the line above it is regarded as the end of it. Those line numbers can be right adjusted by keeping indents at two- digit numbers. While at it, add some spaces between the column of line numbers and the code area for better readability.

A prime example is timer and workqueue where the timer schedules work and the work arms the timer. What needs to prevented is that pending work which is drained via destroy_workqueue() does not rearm the previously shutdown timer. Nothing in that shutdown sequence relies on the timer being functional. The conclusion was that the semantics of timer_shutdown_sync() should be: - timer is not enqueued - timer callback is not running - timer cannot be rearmed Preventing the rearming of shutdown timers is done by discarding rearm attempts silently. A warning for the case that a rearm attempt of a shutdown timer is detected would not be really helpful because it's entirely unclear how it should be acted upon. The only way to address such a case is to add 'if (in_shutdown)' conditionals all over the place. This is error prone and in most cases of teardown not required all. - The real fix for the bluetooth HCI teardown based on timer_shutdown_sync(). A larger scale conversion to timer_shutdown_sync() is work in progress. - Consolidation of VDSO time namespace helper functions - Small fixes for timer and timerqueue Drivers: - Prevent integer overflow on the XGene-1 TVAL register which causes an never ending interrupt storm. - The usual set of new device tree bindings - Small fixes and improvements all over the place" * tag 'timers-core-2022-12-10' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (34 commits) dt-bindings: timer: renesas,cmt: Add r8a779g0 CMT support dt-bindings: timer: renesas,tmu: Add r8a779g0 support clocksource/drivers/arm_arch_timer: Use kstrtobool() instead of strtobool() clocksource/drivers/timer-ti-dm: Fix missing clk_disable_unprepare in dmtimer_systimer_init_clock() clocksource/drivers/timer-ti-dm: Clear settings on probe and free clocksource/drivers/timer-ti-dm: Make timer_get_irq static clocksource/drivers/timer-ti-dm: Fix warning for omap_timer_match clocksource/drivers/arm_arch_timer: Fix XGene-1 TVAL register math error clocksource/drivers/timer-npcm7xx: Enable timer 1 clock before use dt-bindings: timer: nuvoton,npcm7xx-timer: Allow specifying all clocks dt-bindings: timer: rockchip: Add rockchip,rk3128-timer clockevents: Repair kernel-doc for clockevent_delta2ns() clocksource/drivers/ingenic-ost: Define pm functions properly in platform_driver struct clocksource/drivers/sh_cmt: Access registers according to spec vdso/timens: Refactor copy-pasted find_timens_vvar_page() helper into one copy Bluetooth: hci_qca: Fix the teardown problem for real timers: Update the documentation to reflect on the new timer_shutdown() API timers: Provide timer_shutdown[_sync]() timers: Add shutdown mechanism to the internal functions timers: Split [try_to_]del_timer[_sync]() to prepare for shutdown mode ...

* | doc: Remove arrayRCU.rstPaul E. McKenney2022-10-182-166/+0
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Although RCU can in theory be used to protect array indexes in a manner similar to the way it protects pointers, doing so is extremely risky because of the huge number of optimizations that modern compilers can apply to integral types. For but one example, if your code can be configured such that your array contains only a single element, then indexing that array with any integer other than zero invokes undefined behavior, which in turn means that the compiler is within its rights to assume (without checking!) that any integer used as an index to that array has the value zero. Therefore, the compiler can index the array with the constant zero, which breaks any dependencies that might have otherwise existed between the time the actual value was loaded and the time that the array was indexed. This commit therefore removes the arrayRCU.rst file that describes how to go about carrying dependencies through array indexes. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>

This means that readers attempting to look up an SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU object must use a reference-counting approach.

| * rcu: Introduce CONFIG_RCU_EXP_CPU_STALL_TIMEOUTUladzislau Rezki2022-05-111-0/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently both expedited and regular grace period stall warnings use a single timeout value that with units of seconds. However, recent Android use cases problem require a sub-100-millisecond expedited RCU CPU stall warning. Given that expedited RCU grace periods normally complete in far less than a single millisecond, especially for small systems, this is not unreasonable. Therefore introduce the CONFIG_RCU_EXP_CPU_STALL_TIMEOUT kernel configuration that defaults to 20 msec on Android and remains the same as that of the non-expedited stall warnings otherwise. It also can be changed in run-time via: /sys/.../parameters/rcu_exp_cpu_stall_timeout.

* | docs: Update RCU cross-references as suggested in doc-guideAkira Yokosawa2022-04-218-29/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The RCU documentation contains old-style cross references which do not follow the best practices outlined in doc-guide/sphinx.rst. In addition, some of the cross references use URLs that should be replaced by pathnames. Update all of these cross references and adjust the surrounding words. Summary of changes: - out-of-date plaintext file names (*.txt) -> *.rst - references by :ref: tags -> path names of *.rst * use relative paths to .rst files under the RCU/ subdirectory * use abs paths of Documentation/xxx for other .rst files - references by URL under https://www.kernel.org/ -> paths of *.rst - adjust surrounding words of some of updated references. Note: The automarkup.py script interprets references via "*.txt" as if they were via "*.rst", so the *.txt -> *.rst changes should be regarded as cleanups rather than bug fixes.
