commit 5f98fd034ca6fd1ab8c91a3488968a0e9caaabf6 upstream.

Since the actual slab freeing is deferred when calling kvfree_rcu(), so
is the kmemleak_free() callback informing kmemleak of the object
deletion. From the perspective of the kvfree_rcu() caller, the object is
freed and it may remove any references to it. Since kmemleak does not
scan RCU internal data storing the pointer, it will report such objects
as leaks during the grace period.

Tell kmemleak to ignore such objects on the kvfree_call_rcu() path. Note
that the tiny RCU implementation does not have such issue since the
objects can be tracked from the rcu_ctrlblk structure.

commit b96e7a5fa0ba9cda32888e04f8f4bac42d49a7f8 upstream.

There are instances where rcu_cpu_stall_reset() is called when jiffies
did not get a chance to update for a long time. Before jiffies is
updated, the CPU stall detector can go off triggering false-positives
where a just-started grace period appears to be ages old. In the past,
we disabled stall detection in rcu_cpu_stall_reset() however this got
changed [1]. This is resulting in false-positives in KGDB usecase [2].

Fix this by deferring the update of jiffies to the third run of the FQS
loop. This is more robust, as, even if rcu_cpu_stall_reset() is called
just before jiffies is read, we would end up pushing out the jiffies
read by 3 more FQS loops. Meanwhile the CPU stall detection will be
delayed and we will not get any false positives.

[ Upstream commit 8a77f38bcd28d3c22ab7dd8eff3f299d43c00411 ]

Acceleration in SRCU happens on enqueue time for each new callback. This
operation is expected not to fail and therefore any similar attempt
from other places shouldn't find any remaining callbacks to accelerate.

Moreover accelerations performed beyond enqueue time are error prone
because rcu_seq_snap() then may return the snapshot for a new grace
period that is not going to be started.

Remove these dangerous and needless accelerations and introduce instead
assertions reporting leaking unaccelerated callbacks beyond enqueue
time.

<title>srcu: Fix srcu_struct node grpmask overflow on 64-bit systems</title>

[ Upstream commit d8d5b7bf6f2105883bbd91bbd4d5b67e4e3dff71 ]

The value of a bitwise expression 1 &lt;&lt; (cpu - sdp-&gt;mynode-&gt;grplo)
is subject to overflow due to a failure to cast operands to a larger
data type before performing the bitwise operation.

The maximum result of this subtraction is defined by the RCU_FANOUT_LEAF
Kconfig option, which on 64-bit systems defaults to 16 (resulting in a
maximum shift of 15), but which can be set up as high as 64 (resulting
in a maximum shift of 63).  A value of 31 can result in sign extension,
resulting in 0xffffffff80000000 instead of the desired 0x80000000.
A value of 32 or greater triggers undefined behavior per the C standard.

This bug has not been known to cause issues because almost all kernels
take the default CONFIG_RCU_FANOUT_LEAF=16.  Furthermore, as long as a
given compiler gives a deterministic non-zero result for 1&lt;&lt;N for N&gt;=32,
the code correctly invokes all SRCU callbacks, albeit wasting CPU time
along the way.

This commit therefore substitutes the correct 1UL for the buggy 1.

<title>srcu: Fix callbacks acceleration mishandling</title>

<id>urn:sha1:516315314ffa917bfc7e0d734bae56ff244e739c</id>
<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 4a8e65b0c348e42107c64381e692e282900be361 ]

SRCU callbacks acceleration might fail if the preceding callbacks
advance also fails. This can happen when the following steps are met:

1) The RCU_WAIT_TAIL segment has callbacks (say for gp_num 8) and the
   RCU_NEXT_READY_TAIL also has callbacks (say for gp_num 12).

2) The grace period for RCU_WAIT_TAIL is observed as started but not yet
   completed so rcu_seq_current() returns 4 + SRCU_STATE_SCAN1 = 5.

3) This value is passed to rcu_segcblist_advance() which can't move
   any segment forward and fails.

4) srcu_gp_start_if_needed() still proceeds with callback acceleration.
   But then the call to rcu_seq_snap() observes the grace period for the
   RCU_WAIT_TAIL segment (gp_num 8) as completed and the subsequent one
   for the RCU_NEXT_READY_TAIL segment as started
   (ie: 8 + SRCU_STATE_SCAN1 = 9) so it returns a snapshot of the
   next grace period, which is 16.

5) The value of 16 is passed to rcu_segcblist_accelerate() but the
   freshly enqueued callback in RCU_NEXT_TAIL can't move to
   RCU_NEXT_READY_TAIL which already has callbacks for a previous grace
   period (gp_num = 12). So acceleration fails.

6) Note in all these steps, srcu_invoke_callbacks() hadn't had a chance
   to run srcu_invoke_callbacks().

Then some very bad outcome may happen if the following happens:

7) Some other CPU races and starts the grace period number 16 before the
   CPU handling previous steps had a chance. Therefore srcu_gp_start()
   isn't called on the latter sdp to fix the acceleration leak from
   previous steps with a new pair of call to advance/accelerate.

8) The grace period 16 completes and srcu_invoke_callbacks() is finally
   called. All the callbacks from previous grace periods (8 and 12) are
   correctly advanced and executed but callbacks in RCU_NEXT_READY_TAIL
   still remain. Then rcu_segcblist_accelerate() is called with a
   snaphot of 20.

9) Since nothing started the grace period number 20, callbacks stay
   unhandled.

This has been reported in real load:

Fix this with taking the snapshot for acceleration _before_ the read
of the current grace period number.

The only side effect of this solution is that callbacks advancing happen
then _after_ the full barrier in rcu_seq_snap(). This is not a problem
because that barrier only cares about:

1) Ordering accesses of the update side before call_srcu() so they don't
   bleed.
2) See all the accesses prior to the grace period of the current gp_num

The only things callbacks advancing need to be ordered against are
carried by snp locking.

Pull tty/serial driver updates from Greg KH:
 "Here is the big set of tty and serial driver changes for 6.6-rc1.

  Lots of cleanups in here this cycle, and some driver updates. Short
  summary is:

   - Jiri's continued work to make the tty code and apis be a bit more
     sane with regards to modern kernel coding style and types

   - cpm_uart driver updates

   - n_gsm updates and fixes

   - meson driver updates

   - sc16is7xx driver updates

   - 8250 driver updates for different hardware types

   - qcom-geni driver fixes

   - tegra serial driver change

   - stm32 driver updates

   - synclink_gt driver cleanups

   - tty structure size reduction

  All of these have been in linux-next this week with no reported
  issues. The last bit of cleanups from Jiri and the tty structure size
  reduction came in last week, a bit late but as they were just style
  changes and size reductions, I figured they should get into this merge
  cycle so that others can work on top of them with no merge conflicts"

<title>rcu: Make the rcu_nocb_poll boot parameter usable via boot config</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.stealer.net/cgit.cgi/user/sven/linux.git/commit/?id=3292ba0229dbe5f3e79b78b230354ada2888dc29'/>
<id>urn:sha1:3292ba0229dbe5f3e79b78b230354ada2888dc29</id>
<content type='text'>
The rcu_nocb_poll kernel boot parameter is defined via early_param(),
whose parsing functions are invoked from parse_early_param() which
is in turn invoked by setup_arch(), which is very early indeed.  It
is invoked so early that the console output timestamps read 0.000000,
in other words, before time begins.

This use of early_param() means that the rcu_nocb_poll kernel boot
parameter cannot usefully be embedded into the kernel image.  Yes, you
can embed it, but setup_boot_config() is invoked from start_kernel()
too late for it to be parsed.

But it makes no sense to parse this parameter so early.  After all,
it cannot do anything until the rcuog kthreads are created, which is
long after rcu_init() time, let alone setup_boot_config() time.

This commit therefore switches the rcu_nocb_poll kernel boot parameter
from early_param() to __setup(), which allows boot-config parsing of
this parameter, in turn allowing it to be embedded into the kernel image.

<title>rcu: Mark __rcu_irq_enter_check_tick() -&gt;rcu_urgent_qs load</title>

<content type='text'>
The rcu_request_urgent_qs_task() function does a cross-CPU store
to -&gt;rcu_urgent_qs, so this commit therefore marks the load in
__rcu_irq_enter_check_tick() with READ_ONCE().
