Merge tag 'rcu.2023.02.10a' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu

Merge tag 'rcu.2023.02.10a' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu

Pull RCU updates from Paul McKenney:

- Documentation updates

- Miscellaneous fixes, perhaps most notably:

- Throttling callback invocation based on the number of callbacks
that are now ready to invoke instead of on the total number of
callbacks

- Several patches that suppress false-positive boot-time
diagnostics, for example, due to lockdep not yet being
initialized

- Make expedited RCU CPU stall warnings dump stacks of any tasks
that are blocking the stalled grace period. (Normal RCU CPU
stall warnings have done this for many years)

- Lazy-callback fixes to avoid delays during boot, suspend, and
resume. (Note that lazy callbacks must be explicitly enabled, so
this should not (yet) affect production use cases)

- Make kfree_rcu() and friends take advantage of polled grace periods,
thus reducing memory footprint by almost two orders of magnitude,
admittedly on a microbenchmark

This also begins the transition from kfree_rcu(p) to
kfree_rcu_mightsleep(p). This transition was motivated by bugs where
kfree_rcu(p), which can block, was typed instead of the intended
kfree_rcu(p, rh)

- SRCU updates, perhaps most notably fixing a bug that causes SRCU to
fail when booted on a system with a non-zero boot CPU. This
surprising situation actually happens for kdump kernels on the
powerpc architecture

This also adds an srcu_down_read() and srcu_up_read(), which act like
srcu_read_lock() and srcu_read_unlock(), but allow an SRCU read-side
critical section to be handed off from one task to another

- Clean up the now-useless SRCU Kconfig option

There are a few more commits that are not yet acked or pulled into
maintainer trees, and these will be in a pull request for a later
merge window

- RCU-tasks updates, perhaps most notably these fixes:

- A strange interaction between PID-namespace unshare and the
RCU-tasks grace period that results in a low-probability but
very real hang

- A race between an RCU tasks rude grace period on a single-CPU
system and CPU-hotplug addition of the second CPU that can
result in a too-short grace period

- A race between shrinking RCU tasks down to a single callback
list and queuing a new callback to some other CPU, but where
that queuing is delayed for more than an RCU grace period. This
can result in that callback being stranded on the non-boot CPU

- Torture-test updates and fixes

- Torture-test scripting updates and fixes

- Provide additional RCU CPU stall-warning information in kernels built
with CONFIG_RCU_CPU_STALL_CPUTIME=y, and restore the full five-minute
timeout limit for expedited RCU CPU stall warnings

Merge tag 'rcu.2022.09.30a' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu

Pull RCU updates from Paul McKenney:

- Documentation updates.

This is the first in a series from

Merge tag 'rcu.2022.09.30a' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu

Pull RCU updates from Paul McKenney:

- Documentation updates.

This is the first in a series from an ongoing review of the RCU
documentation. "Why are people thinking -that- about RCU? Oh. Because
that is an entirely reasonable interpretation of its documentation."

- Miscellaneous fixes.

- Improved memory allocation and heuristics.

- Improve rcu_nocbs diagnostic output.

- Add full-sized polled RCU grace period state values.

These are the same size as an rcu_head structure, which is double
that of the traditional unsigned long state values that may still be
obtained from et_state_synchronize_rcu(). The added size avoids
missing overlapping grace periods. This benefit is that call_rcu()
can be replaced by polling, which can be attractive in situations
where RCU-protected data is aged out of memory.

Early in the series, the size of this state value is three unsigned
longs. Later in the series, the fastpaths in synchronize_rcu() and
synchronize_rcu_expedited() are reworked to permit the full state to
be represented by only two unsigned longs. This reworking slows these
two functions down in SMP kernels running either on single-CPU
systems or on systems with all but one CPU offlined, but this should
not be a significant problem. And if it somehow becomes a problem in
some yet-as-unforeseen situations, three-value state values can be
provided for only those situations.

Finally, a pair of functions named same_state_synchronize_rcu() and
same_state_synchronize_rcu_full() allow grace-period state values to
be compared for equality. This permits users to maintain lists of
data structures having the same state value, removing the need for
per-data-structure grace-period state values, thus decreasing memory
footprint.

- Polled SRCU grace-period updates, including adding tests to
rcutorture and reducing the incidence of Tiny SRCU grace-period-state
counter wrap.

- Improve Tasks RCU diagnostics and quiescent-state detection.
