rcu: Convert rcutree to hotplug state machine

2016-07-15T08:41:44Z

Straight forward conversion to the state machine. Though the question arises whether this needs really all these state transitions to work.

rcutorture: Expedited-GP batch progress access to torturing

2016-03-31T20:37:37Z

This commit provides rcu_exp_batches_completed() and rcu_exp_batches_completed_sched() functions to allow torture-test modules to check how many expedited grace period batches have completed. These are analogous to the existing rcu_batches_completed(), rcu_batches_completed_bh(), and rcu_batches_completed_sched() functions. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney

rcu: Don't redundantly disable irqs in rcu_irq_{enter,exit}()

2015-12-08T01:01:31Z

This commit replaces a local_irq_save()/local_irq_restore() pair with a lockdep assertion that interrupts are already disabled. This should remove the corresponding overhead from the interrupt entry/exit fastpaths. This change was inspired by the fact that Iftekhar Ahmed's mutation testing showed that removing rcu_irq_enter()'s call to local_ird_restore() had no effect, which might indicate that interrupts were always enabled anyway.

rcu: Stop disabling interrupts in scheduler fastpaths

2015-12-04T20:27:31Z

We need the scheduler's fastpaths to be, well, fast, and unnecessarily disabling and re-enabling interrupts is not necessarily consistent with this goal. Especially given that there are regions of the scheduler that already have interrupts disabled. This commit therefore moves the call to rcu_note_context_switch() to one of the interrupts-disabled regions of the scheduler, and removes the now-redundant disabling and re-enabling of interrupts from rcu_note_context_switch() and the functions it calls.

rcu: Use rcu_callback_t in call_rcu*() and friends

2015-10-06T18:08:05Z

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 Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney Reviewed-by: Josh Triplett

rcu: Add RCU-sched flavors of get-state and cond-sync

2015-07-22T22:26:58Z

The get_state_synchronize_rcu() and cond_synchronize_rcu() functions allow polling for grace-period completion, with an actual wait for a grace period occurring only when cond_synchronize_rcu() is called too soon after the corresponding get_state_synchronize_rcu(). However, these functions work only for vanilla RCU. This commit adds the get_state_synchronize_sched() and cond_synchronize_sched(), which provide the same capability for RCU-sched.

Pull timer updates from Thomas Gleixner: "A rather largish update for everything time and timer related: - Cache footprint optimizations for both hrtimers and timer wheel - Lower the NOHZ impact on systems which have NOHZ or timer migration disabled at runtime. - Optimize run time overhead of hrtimer interrupt by making the clock offset updates smarter - hrtimer cleanups and removal of restrictions to tackle some problems in sched/perf - Some more leap second tweaks - Another round of changes addressing the 2038 problem - First step to change the internals of clock event devices by introducing the necessary infrastructure - Allow constant folding for usecs/msecs_to_jiffies() - The usual pile of clockevent/clocksource driver updates The hrtimer changes contain updates to sched, perf and x86 as they depend on them plus changes all over the tree to cleanup API changes and redundant code, which got copied all over the place.

rcu: Further shrink Tiny RCU by making empty functions static inlines

2015-05-27T19:59:31Z

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.
