Pull percpu updates from Tejun Heo: - Major reorganization of percpu header files which I think makes things a lot more readable and logical than before. - percpu-refcount is updated so that it requires explicit destruction and can be reinitialized if necessary. This was pulled into the block tree to replace the custom percpu refcnting implemented in blk-mq. - In the process, percpu and percpu-refcount got cleaned up a bit * 'for-3.17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu: (21 commits) percpu-refcount: implement percpu_ref_reinit() and percpu_ref_is_zero() percpu-refcount: require percpu_ref to be exited explicitly percpu-refcount: use unsigned long for pcpu_count pointer percpu-refcount: add helpers for ->percpu_count accesses percpu-refcount: one bit is enough for REF_STATUS percpu-refcount, aio: use percpu_ref_cancel_init() in ioctx_alloc() workqueue: stronger test in process_one_work() workqueue: clear POOL_DISASSOCIATED in rebind_workers() percpu: Use ALIGN macro instead of hand coding alignment calculation percpu: invoke __verify_pcpu_ptr() from the generic part of accessors and operations percpu: preffity percpu header files percpu: use raw_cpu_*() to define __this_cpu_*() percpu: reorder macros in percpu header files percpu: move {raw|this}_cpu_*() definitions to include/linux/percpu-defs.h percpu: move generic {raw|this}_cpu_*_N() definitions to include/asm-generic/percpu.h percpu: only allow sized arch overrides for {raw|this}_cpu_*() ops percpu: reorganize include/linux/percpu-defs.h percpu: move accessors from include/linux/percpu.h to percpu-defs.h percpu: include/asm-generic/percpu.h should contain only arch-overridable parts percpu: introduce arch_raw_cpu_ptr() ...

core: fix typo in percpu read_mostly section

2014-07-01T20:45:22Z

This fixes a typo that named the read_mostly section of percpu as readmostly. It works fine with SMP because the linker script specifies .data..percpu..readmostly. However, UP kernel builds don't have percpu sections defined and the non-percpu version of the section is called data..read_mostly, so .data..readmostly will float around and may break things unexpectedly. Looking at the original change that introduced data..percpu..readmostly (commit c957ef2c59e952803766ddc22e89981ab534606f), it looks like this was the original intention. Tested: Built UP kernel and confirmed the sections got merged. - Before the patch: $ objdump -h vmlinux.o | grep '\.data\.\.read.*mostly' 38 .data..read_mostly 00004418 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 00431ac0 2**6 50 .data..readmostly 00000014 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 00444000 2**3 - After the patch: $ objdump -h vmlinux.o | grep '\.data\.\.read.*mostly' 38 .data..read_mostly 00004438 0000000000000000 0000000000000000 00431ac0 2**6 Signed-off-by: Zhengyu He Signed-off-by: Filipe Brandenburger Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo

percpu: invoke __verify_pcpu_ptr() from the generic part of accessors and operations

2014-06-17T23:12:40Z

__verify_pcpu_ptr() is used to verify that a specified parameter is actually an percpu pointer by percpu accessor and operation implementations. Currently, where it's called isn't clearly defined and we just ensure that it's invoked at least once for all accessors and operations. The lack of clarity on when it should be called isn't nice and given that this is a completely generic issue, there's no reason to make archs worry about it. This patch updates __verify_pcpu_ptr() invocations such that it's always invoked from the final generic wrapper once per access or operation. As this is already the case for {raw|this}_cpu_*() definitions through __pcpu_size_*(), only the {raw|per|this}_cpu_ptr() accessors need to be updated. This change makes it unnecessary for archs to worry about __verify_pcpu_ptr(). x86's arch_raw_cpu_ptr() is updated accordingly.

percpu: preffity percpu header files

2014-06-17T23:12:40Z

percpu macros are difficult to read. It's partly because they're fairly complex but also because they simply lack visual and conventional consistency to an unusual degree. The preceding patches tried to organize macro definitions consistently by their roles. This patch makes the following cosmetic changes to improve overall readability. * Use consistent convention for multi-line macro definitions - "do {" or "({" are now put on their own lines and the line continuing '\' are all put on the same column. * Temp variables used inside macro are consistently given "__" prefix. * When a macro argument is passed to another macro or a function, putting extra parenthses around it doesn't help anything. Don't put them. * _this_cpu_generic_*() are renamed to this_cpu_generic_*() so that they're consistent with raw_cpu_generic_*(). * Reorganize raw_cpu_*() and this_cpu_*() definitions so that trivial wrappers are collected in one place after actual operation definitions. * Other misc cleanups including reorganizing comments. All changes in this patch are cosmetic and cause no functional difference. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Acked-by: Christoph Lameter

percpu: use raw_cpu_() to define __this_cpu_()

2014-06-17T23:12:39Z

__this_cpu_*() operations are the same as raw_cpu_*() operations except for the added __this_cpu_preempt_check(). Curiously, these were defined using __pcu_size_call_*() instead of being layered on top of raw_cpu_*(). Let's layer them so that __this_cpu_*() are defined in terms of raw_cpu_*(). It's simpler and less error-prone this way. This patch doesn't introduce any functional difference. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Acked-by: Christoph Lameter

percpu: reorder macros in percpu header files

2014-06-17T23:12:39Z

* In include/asm-generic/percpu.h, collect {raw|_this}_cpu_generic*() macros into one place. They were dispersed through {raw|this}_cpu_*_N() definitions and the visiual inconsistency was making following the code unnecessarily difficult. * In include/linux/percpu-defs.h, move __verify_pcpu_ptr() later in the file so that it's right above accessor definitions where it's actually used. This is pure reorganization. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Acked-by: Christoph Lameter

percpu: move {raw|this}_cpu_*() definitions to include/linux/percpu-defs.h

2014-06-17T23:12:39Z

We're in the process of moving all percpu accessors and operations to include/linux/percpu-defs.h so that they're available to arch headers without having to include full include/linux/percpu.h which may cause cyclic inclusion dependency. This patch moves {raw|this}_cpu_*() definitions from include/linux/percpu.h to include/linux/percpu-defs.h. The code is moved mostly verbatim; however, raw_cpu_*() are placed above this_cpu_*() which is more conventional as the raw operations may be used to defined other variants. This is pure reorganization. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Acked-by: Christoph Lameter

percpu: reorganize include/linux/percpu-defs.h

2014-06-17T23:12:37Z

Reorganize for better readability. * Accessor definitions are collected into one place and SMP and UP now define them in the same order. * Definitions are layered when possible - e.g. per_cpu() is now defined in terms of this_cpu_ptr(). * Rather pointless comment dropped. * per_cpu(), __raw_get_cpu_var() and __get_cpu_var() are defined in a way which can be shared between SMP and UP and moved out of CONFIG_SMP blocks. This patch doesn't introduce any functional difference. Signed-off-by: Tejun Heo Cc: Christoph Lameter

percpu: move accessors from include/linux/percpu.h to percpu-defs.h

2014-06-17T23:12:34Z

include/linux/percpu-defs.h is gonna host all accessors and operations so that arch headers can make use of them too without worrying about circular dependency through include/linux/percpu.h. This patch moves the following accessors from include/linux/percpu.h to include/linux/percpu-defs.h. * get/put_cpu_var() * get/put_cpu_ptr() * per_cpu_ptr() This is pure reorgniazation.
