* rcu: Remove cond_resched() from Tiny synchronize_sched()Paul E. McKenney2017-01-151-4/+0
| | | | | | | | | | It is now legal to invoke synchronize_sched() at early boot, which causes Tiny RCU's synchronize_sched() to emit spurious splats. This commit therefore removes the cond_resched() from Tiny RCU's synchronize_sched(). Fixes: 8b355e3bc140 ("rcu: Drive expedited grace periods from workqueue") Signed-off-by: Paul E.

* latent_entropy: Mark functions with __latent_entropyEmese Revfy2016-10-101-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The __latent_entropy gcc attribute can be used only on functions and variables. If it is on a function then the plugin will instrument it for gathering control-flow entropy. If the attribute is on a variable then the plugin will initialize it with random contents. The variable must be an integer, an integer array type or a structure with integer fields. These specific functions have been selected because they are init functions (to help gather boot-time entropy), are called at unpredictable times, or they have variable loops, each of which provide some level of latent entropy.

* rcu: Use rcu_callback_t in call_rcu*() and friendsBoqun Feng2015-10-061-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | As we now have rcu_callback_t typedefs as the type of rcu callbacks, we should use it in call_rcu*() and friends as the type of parameters. This could save us a few lines of code and make it clear which function requires an rcu callbacks rather than other callbacks as its argument. Besides, this can also help cscope to generate a better database for code reading. Signed-off-by: Boqun Feng <boqun.feng@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

Also some enhancements to make the ring buffer even faster. But the biggest and most noticeable change is the renaming of the ftrace* files, structures and variables that have to deal with trace events. Over the years I've had several developers tell me about their confusion with what ftrace is compared to events. Technically, "ftrace" is the infrastructure to do the function hooks, which include tracing and also helps with live kernel patching. But the trace events are a separate entity altogether, and the files that affect the trace events should not be named "ftrace". These include: include/trace/ftrace.h -> include/trace/trace_events.h include/linux/ftrace_event.h -> include/linux/trace_events.h Also, functions that are specific for trace events have also been renamed: ftrace_print_*() -> trace_print_*() (un)register_ftrace_event() -> (un)register_trace_event() ftrace_event_name() -> trace_event_name() ftrace_trigger_soft_disabled() -> trace_trigger_soft_disabled() ftrace_define_fields_##call() -> trace_define_fields_##call() ftrace_get_offsets_##call() -> trace_get_offsets_##call() Structures have been renamed: ftrace_event_file -> trace_event_file ftrace_event_{call,class} -> trace_event_{call,class} ftrace_event_buffer -> trace_event_buffer ftrace_subsystem_dir -> trace_subsystem_dir ftrace_event_raw_##call -> trace_event_raw_##call ftrace_event_data_offset_##call-> trace_event_data_offset_##call ftrace_event_type_funcs_##call -> trace_event_type_funcs_##call And a few various variables and flags have also been updated.

* | rcu: Correctly handle non-empty Tiny RCU callback list with none readyPaul E. McKenney2015-05-271-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If, at the time __rcu_process_callbacks() is invoked, there are callbacks in Tiny RCU's callback list, but none of them are ready to be invoked, the current list-management code will knit the non-ready callbacks out of the list. This can result in hangs and possibly worse. This commit therefore inserts a check for there being no callbacks that can be invoked immediately. This bug is unlikely to occur -- you have to get a new callback between the time rcu_sched_qs() or rcu_bh_qs() was called, but before we get to __rcu_process_callbacks(). It was detected by the addition of RCU-bh testing to rcutorture, which in turn was instigated by Iftekhar Ahmed's mutation testing. Although this bug was made much more likely by 915e8a4fe45e (rcu: Remove fastpath from __rcu_process_callbacks()), this did not cause the bug, but rather made it much more probable. That said, it takes more than 40 hours of rcutorture testing, on average, for this bug to appear, so this fix cannot be considered an emergency. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

* | rcu: Further shrink Tiny RCU by making empty functions static inlinesPaul E. McKenney2015-05-271-33/+0
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The Tiny RCU counterparts to rcu_idle_enter(), rcu_idle_exit(), rcu_irq_enter(), and rcu_irq_exit() are empty functions, but each has EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(), which needlessly consumes extra memory, especially in kernels built with module support. This commit therefore moves these functions to static inlines in rcutiny.h, removing the need for exports. This won't affect the size of the tiniest kernels, which are likely built without module support, but might help semi-tiny kernels that might include module support. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

After doing so, rcu_idle/irq_enter/exit() are useless, so we can simply make these functions empty. More important, this change does not change the functionality logically. Note: raise_softirq(RCU_SOFTIRQ)/rcu_sched_qs() in rcu_idle_enter() and outmost rcu_irq_exit() will have to wake up the ksoftirqd (due to in_interrupt() == 0). Before this patch After this patch: call_rcu_sched() in idle; call_rcu_sched() in idle set resched do other stuffs; do other stuffs outmost rcu_irq_exit() outmost rcu_irq_exit() (empty function) (or rcu_idle_enter()) (or rcu_idle_enter(), also empty function) start to resched.

| * rcu: Remove redundant rcu_is_cpu_rrupt_from_idle() from tiny RCUAlexander Gordeev2014-12-311-11/+1
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Let's start assuming that something in the idle loop posts a callback, and scheduling-clock interrupt occurs: 1. The system is idle and stays that way, no runnable tasks. 2. Scheduling-clock interrupt occurs, rcu_check_callbacks() is called as result, which in turn calls rcu_is_cpu_rrupt_from_idle(). 3. rcu_is_cpu_rrupt_from_idle() reports the CPU was interrupted from idle, which results in rcu_sched_qs() call, which does a raise_softirq(RCU_SOFTIRQ). 4. Upon return from interrupt, rcu_irq_exit() is invoked, which calls rcu_idle_enter_common(), which in turn calls rcu_sched_qs() again, which does another raise_softirq(RCU_SOFTIRQ). 5. The softirq happens shortly and invokes rcu_process_callbacks(), which invokes __rcu_process_callbacks(). 6. So now callbacks can be invoked. At least they can be if ->donetail has been updated. Which it will have been because rcu_sched_qs() invokes rcu_qsctr_help(). In the described scenario rcu_sched_qs() and raise_softirq(RCU_SOFTIRQ) get called twice in steps 3 and 4. This redundancy could be eliminated by removing rcu_is_cpu_rrupt_from_idle() function. Signed-off-by: Alexander Gordeev <agordeev@redhat.com> Cc: Paul E.

This RCU flavor's quiescent states are voluntary context switch (not preemption!) and userspace execution (not the idle loop -- use some sort of schedule_on_each_cpu() if you need to handle the idle tasks. Note that unlike other RCU flavors, these quiescent states occur in tasks, not necessarily CPUs. Includes fixes from Steven Rostedt. This RCU flavor is assumed to have very infrequent latency-tolerant updaters. This assumption permits significant simplifications, including a single global callback list protected by a single global lock, along with a single task-private linked list containing all tasks that have not yet passed through a quiescent state. If experience shows this assumption to be incorrect, the required additional complexity will be added. Suggested-by: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.
