rcu: Improve rcu_note_voluntary_context_switch() reporting

2018-07-12T22:39:12Z

We expect a quiescent state of TASKS_RCU when cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs() is called, no matter whether it actually be scheduled or not. However, it currently doesn't report the quiescent state when the task enters into __schedule() as it's called with preempt = true. So make it report the quiescent state unconditionally when cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs() is called. And in TINY_RCU, even though the quiescent state of rcu_bh also should be reported when the tick interrupt comes from user, it doesn't. So make it reported. Lastly in TREE_RCU, rcu_note_voluntary_context_switch() should be reported when the tick interrupt comes from not only user but also idle, as an extended quiescent state.

srcu: Move rcu_scheduler_starting() from Tiny RCU to Tiny SRCU

2017-07-24T23:03:22Z

Other than lockdep support, Tiny RCU has no need for the scheduler status. However, Tiny SRCU will need this to control boot-time behavior independent of lockdep. Therefore, this commit moves rcu_scheduler_starting() from kernel/rcu/tiny_plugin.h to kernel/rcu/srcutiny.c. This in turn allows the complete removal of kernel/rcu/tiny_plugin.h.

rcu: Remove RCU CPU stall warnings from Tiny RCU

2017-06-09T01:52:45Z

Tiny RCU's job is to be tiny, so this commit removes its RCU CPU stall warning code. After this, there is no longer any need for rcu_sched_ctrlblk and rcu_bh_ctrlblk to be in tiny_plugin.h, so this commit also moves them to tiny.c. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney

rcu: Remove event tracing from Tiny RCU

rcu: Eliminate the unused __rcu_is_watching() function

2017-06-09T01:52:30Z

The __rcu_is_watching() function is currently not used, aside from to implement the rcu_is_watching() function. This commit therefore eliminates __rcu_is_watching(), which has the beneficial side-effect of shrinking include/linux/rcupdate.h a bit. Reported-by: Ingo Molnar Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney

rcu: Semicolon inside RCU_TRACE() for Tiny RCU

2017-04-18T18:38:17Z

The current use of "RCU_TRACE(statement);" can cause odd bugs, especially where "statement" is a local-variable declaration, as it can leave a misplaced ";" in the source code. This commit therefore converts these to "RCU_TRACE(statement;)", which avoids the misplaced ";". Reported-by: Josh Triplett Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney

rcu: Separate the RCU synchronization types and APIs into

2017-03-02T07:42:24Z

So rcupdate.h is a pretty complex header, in particular it includes which includes - creating a dependency that includes in , which prevents the isolation of from the derived header. Solve part of the problem by decoupling rcupdate.h from completions: this can be done by separating out the rcu_synchronize types and APIs, and updating their usage sites. Since this is a mostly RCU-internal types this will not just simplify 's dependencies, but will make all the hundreds of .c files that include rcupdate.h but not completions or wait.h build faster. ( For rcutiny this means that two dependent APIs have to be uninlined, but that shouldn't be much of a problem as they are rare variants. ) Acked-by: Linus Torvalds Cc: Mike Galbraith Cc: Paul E.

rcu: Remove unneeded rcu_process_callbacks() declarations

2017-01-23T19:32:29Z

The declarations of __rcu_process_callbacks() and rcu_process_callbacks() are not needed, as the definition of both of these functions appear before any uses. This commit therefore removes both declarations. Reported-by: "Ahmed, Iftekhar" Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney Reviewed-by: Josh Triplett

rcu: Remove cond_resched() from Tiny synchronize_sched()

2017-01-15T05:22:20Z

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_entropy

2016-10-10T21:51:45Z

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.
