For kernels built with CONFIG_FORCE_NR_CPUS=y, the nr_cpu_ids is
defined as NR_CPUS instead of the number of possible cpus, this
will cause the following system panic:

rcu-tasks: Initialize data to eliminate RCU-tasks/do_exit() deadlocks

[ Upstream commit 46faf9d8e1d52e4a91c382c6c72da6bd8e68297b ]

Holding a mutex across synchronize_rcu_tasks() and acquiring
that same mutex in code called from do_exit() after its call to
exit_tasks_rcu_start() but before its call to exit_tasks_rcu_stop()
results in deadlock. This is by design, because tasks that are far
enough into do_exit() are no longer present on the tasks list, making
it a bit difficult for RCU Tasks to find them, let alone wait on them
to do a voluntary context switch. However, such deadlocks are becoming
more frequent. In addition, lockdep currently does not detect such
deadlocks and they can be difficult to reproduce.

In addition, if a task voluntarily context switches during that time
(for example, if it blocks acquiring a mutex), then this task is in an
RCU Tasks quiescent state. And with some adjustments, RCU Tasks could
just as well take advantage of that fact.

This commit therefore initializes the data structures that will be needed
to rely on these quiescent states and to eliminate these deadlocks.

rcu-tasks: Pull sampling of ->percpu_dequeue_lim out of loop

[ Upstream commit e62d8ae4620865411d1b2347980aa28ccf891a3d ]

The rcu_tasks_need_gpcb() samples ->percpu_dequeue_lim as part of the
condition clause of a "for" loop, which is a bit confusing. This commit
therefore hoists this sampling out of the loop, using the result loaded
in the condition clause.

So why does this work in the face of a concurrent switch from single-CPU
queueing to per-CPU queueing?

o The call_rcu_tasks_generic() that makes the change has already
enqueued its callback, which means that all of the other CPU's
callback queues are empty.

o For the call_rcu_tasks_generic() that first notices
the switch to per-CPU queues, the smp_store_release()
used to update ->percpu_enqueue_lim pairs with the
raw_spin_trylock_rcu_node()'s full barrier that is
between the READ_ONCE(rtp->percpu_enqueue_shift) and the
rcu_segcblist_enqueue() that enqueues the callback.

o Because this CPU's queue is empty (unless it happens to
be the original single queue, in which case there is no
need for synchronization), this call_rcu_tasks_generic()
will do an irq_work_queue() to schedule a handler for the
needed rcuwait_wake_up() call. This call will be ordered
after the first call_rcu_tasks_generic() function's change to
->percpu_dequeue_lim.

o This rcuwait_wake_up() will either happen before or after the
set_current_state() in rcuwait_wait_event(). If it happens
before, the "condition" argument's call to rcu_tasks_need_gpcb()
will be ordered after the original change, and all callbacks on
all CPUs will be visible. Otherwise, if it happens after, then
the grace-period kthread's state will be set back to running,
which will result in a later call to rcuwait_wait_event() and
thus to rcu_tasks_need_gpcb(), which will again see the change.

So it all works out.

rcu: Dump memory object info if callback function is invalid

[ Upstream commit 2cbc482d325ee58001472c4359b311958c4efdd1 ]

When a structure containing an RCU callback rhp is (incorrectly) freed
and reallocated after rhp is passed to call_rcu(), it is not unusual for
rhp->func to be set to NULL. This defeats the debugging prints used by
__call_rcu_common() in kernels built with CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_RCU_HEAD=y,
which expect to identify the offending code using the identity of this
function.

And in kernels build without CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS_RCU_HEAD=y, things
are even worse, as can be seen from this splat:

Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0
... ...
PC is at 0x0
LR is at rcu_do_batch+0x1c0/0x3b8

(do_idle) from (cpu_startup_entry+0x18/0x20)
(cpu_startup_entry) from (0xc01530)

This commit therefore adds calls to mem_dump_obj(rhp) to output some
information, for example:

slab kmalloc-256 start ffff410c45019900 pointer offset 0 size 256

This provides the rough size of the memory block and the offset of the
rcu_head structure, which as least provides at least a few clues to help
locate the problem. If the problem is reproducible, additional slab
debugging can be enabled, for example, CONFIG_DEBUG_SLAB=y, which can
provide significantly more information.

rcu/tasks: Fix stale task snaphot for Tasks Trace

rcu/tasks: Fix stale task snaphot for Tasks Trace

[ Upstream commit 399ced9594dfab51b782798efe60a2376cd5b724 ]

When RCU-TASKS-TRACE pre-gp takes a snapshot of the current task running
on all online CPUs, no explicit ordering synchronizes properly with a
context switch. This lack of ordering can permit the new task to miss
pre-grace-period update-side accesses. The following diagram, courtesy
of Paul, shows the possible bad scenario:

CPU 0 CPU 1
----- -----

// Pre-GP update side access
WRITE_ONCE(*X, 1);
smp_mb();
r0 = rq->curr;
RCU_INIT_POINTER(rq->curr, TASK_B)
spin_unlock(rq)
rcu_read_lock_trace()
r1 = X;
/* ignore TASK_B */

Either r0==TASK_B or r1==1 is needed but neither is guaranteed.

One possible solution to solve this is to wait for an RCU grace period
at the beginning of the RCU-tasks-trace grace period before taking the
current tasks snaphot. However this would introduce large additional
latencies to RCU-tasks-trace grace periods.

Another solution is to lock the target runqueue while taking the current
task snapshot. This ensures that the update side sees the latest context
switch and subsequent context switches will see the pre-grace-period
update side accesses.

This commit therefore adds runqueue locking to cpu_curr_snapshot().

The commit:

cff9b2332ab7 ("kernel/sched: Modify initial boot task idle setup")

has changed the semantics of what is to be considered an idle task in
such a way that the idle task of an offline CPU may not carry the
PF_IDLE flag anymore.

However RCU-tasks-trace tests the opposite assertion, still assuming
that idle tasks carry the PF_IDLE flag during their whole lifecycle.

Remove this assumption to avoid spurious warnings but keep the initial
test verifying that the idle task is the current task on any offline
CPU.

rcu/tasks: Handle new PF_IDLE semantics

[ Upstream commit 9715ed501b585d47444865071674c961c0cc0020 ]

The commit:

cff9b2332ab7 ("kernel/sched: Modify initial boot task idle setup")

has changed the semantics of what is to be considered an idle task in
such a way that CPU boot code preceding the actual idle loop is excluded
from it.

This has however introduced new potential RCU-tasks stalls when either:

1) Grace period is started before init/0 had a chance to set PF_IDLE,
keeping it stuck in the holdout list until idle ever schedules.

2) Grace period is started when some possible CPUs have never been
online, keeping their idle tasks stuck in the holdout list until the
CPU ever boots up.

3) Similar to 1) but with secondary CPUs: Grace period is started
concurrently with secondary CPU booting, putting its idle task in
the holdout list because PF_IDLE isn't yet observed on it. It stays
then stuck in the holdout list until that CPU ever schedules. The
effect is mitigated here by the hotplug AP thread that must run to
bring the CPU up.

Fix this with handling the new semantics of PF_IDLE, keeping in mind
that it may or may not be set on an idle task. Take advantage of that to
strengthen the coverage of an RCU-tasks quiescent state within an idle
task, excluding the CPU boot code from it. Only the code running within
the idle loop is now a quiescent state, along with offline CPUs.

rcu-tasks: Fix boot-time RCU tasks debug-only deadlock

In kernels built with CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y (for example, lockdep kernels),
the following sequence of events can occur:

o rcu_init_tasks_generic() is invoked just before init is spawned.
It invokes rcu_spawn_tasks_kthread() and friends.

o rcu_spawn_tasks_kthread() invokes rcu_spawn_tasks_kthread_generic(),
which uses kthread_run() to create the needed kthread.

o Control returns to rcu_init_tasks_generic(), which, because this
is a CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y kernel, invokes the version of the
rcu_tasks_initiate_self_tests() function that actually does
something, including invoking synchronize_rcu_tasks(), which
in turn invokes synchronize_rcu_tasks_generic().

o synchronize_rcu_tasks_generic() sees that the ->kthread_ptr is
still NULL, because the newly spawned kthread has not yet
started.

o The new kthread starts, preempting synchronize_rcu_tasks_generic()
just after its check. This kthread invokes rcu_tasks_one_gp(),
which acquires ->tasks_gp_mutex, and, seeing no work, blocks
in rcuwait_wait_event(). Note that this step requires either
a preemptible kernel or a fault-injection-style sleep at the
beginning of mutex_lock().

o synchronize_rcu_tasks_generic() resumes and invokes rcu_tasks_one_gp().

o rcu_tasks_one_gp() attempts to acquire ->tasks_gp_mutex, which
is still held by the newly spawned kthread's rcu_tasks_one_gp()
function. Deadlock.

Because the only reason for ->tasks_gp_mutex is to handle pre-kthread
synchronous grace periods, this commit avoids this deadlock by having
rcu_tasks_one_gp() momentarily release ->tasks_gp_mutex while invoking
rcuwait_wait_event(). This allows the call to rcu_tasks_one_gp() from
synchronize_rcu_tasks_generic() proceed.

Note that it is not necessary to release the mutex anywhere else in
rcu_tasks_one_gp() because rcuwait_wait_event() is the only function
that can block indefinitely.

rcu-tasks: Permit use of debug-objects with RCU Tasks flavors

rcu-tasks: Permit use of debug-objects with RCU Tasks flavors

Currently, cblist_init_generic() holds a raw spinlock when invoking
INIT_WORK(). This fails in kernels built with CONFIG_DEBUG_OBJECTS=y
due to memory allocation being forbidden while holding a raw spinlock.
But the only reason for holding the raw spinlock is to synchronize
with early boot calls to call_rcu_tasks(), call_rcu_tasks_rude, and,
last but not least, call_rcu_tasks_trace(). These calls also invoke
cblist_init_generic() in order to support early boot queueing of
callbacks.

Except that there are no early boot calls to either of these three
functions, and the BPF guys confirm that they have no plans to add any
such calls.

This commit therefore removes the synchronization and adds a
WARN_ON_ONCE() to catch the case of now-prohibited early boot RCU Tasks
callback queueing.

If early boot queueing is needed, an "initialized" flag may be added to
the rcu_tasks structure. Then queueing a callback before this flag is set
would initialize the callback list (if needed) and queue the callback.
The decision as to where to queue the callback given the possibility of
non-zero boot CPUs is left as an exercise for the reader.
