| | * kvfree_rcu: Use __GFP_NOMEMALLOC for single-argument kvfree_rcu()Paul E. McKenney2021-03-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit applies the __GFP_NOMEMALLOC gfp flag to memory allocations carried out by the single-argument variant of kvfree_rcu(), thus avoiding this can-sleep code path from dipping into the emergency reserves.

| | * kvfree_rcu: Directly allocate page for single-argument caseUladzislau Rezki (Sony)2021-03-081-16/+26
| |/ |/| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Single-argument kvfree_rcu() must be invoked from sleepable contexts, so we can directly allocate pages. Furthermmore, the fallback in case of page-allocation failure is the high-latency synchronize_rcu(), so it makes sense to do these page allocations from the fastpath, and even to permit limited sleeping within the allocator. This commit therefore allocates if needed on the fastpath using GFP_KERNEL|__GFP_RETRY_MAYFAIL. This also has the beneficial effect of leaving kvfree_rcu()'s per-CPU caches to the double-argument variant of kvfree_rcu(), given that the double-argument variant cannot directly invoke the allocator.

| * rcu: Remove spurious instrumentation_end() in rcu_nmi_enter()Zhouyi Zhou2021-03-081-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In rcu_nmi_enter(), there is an erroneous instrumentation_end() in the second branch of the "if" statement. Oddly enough, "objtool check -f vmlinux.o" fails to complain because it is unable to correctly cover all cases. Instead, objtool visits the third branch first, which marks following trace_rcu_dyntick() as visited. This commit therefore removes the spurious instrumentation_end().

| * rcu: Fix CPU-offline trace in rcutree_dying_cpuNeeraj Upadhyay2021-03-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The condition in the trace_rcu_grace_period() in rcutree_dying_cpu() is backwards, so that it uses the string "cpuofl" when the offline CPU is blocking the current grace period and "cpuofl-bgp" otherwise. Given that the "-bgp" stands for "blocking grace period", this is at best misleading. This commit therefore switches these strings in order to correctly trace whether the outgoing cpu blocks the current grace period.

There's also the /debug/sched_debug switch to do this runtime. This feature is implemented via runtime patching (a new variant of static calls). The scope of the runtime patching can be best reviewed by looking at the sched_dynamic_update() function in kernel/sched/core.c. ( Note that the dynamic none/voluntary mode isn't 100% identical, for example preempt-RCU is available in all cases, plus the preempt count is maintained in all models, which has runtime overhead even with the code patching. ) The PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY/PREEMPT_NONE models, used by the vast majority of distributions, are supposed to be unaffected. - Fix ignored rescheduling after rcu_eqs_enter(). This is a bug that was found via rcutorture triggering a hang. The bug is that rcu_idle_enter() may wake up a NOCB kthread, but this happens after the last generic need_resched() check. Some cpuidle drivers fix it by chance but many others don't. In true 2020 fashion the original bug fix has grown into a 5-patch scheduler/RCU fix series plus another 16 RCU patches to address the underlying issue of missed preemption events. These are the initial fixes that should fix current incarnations of the bug. - Clean up rbtree usage in the scheduler, by providing & using the following consistent set of rbtree APIs: partial-order; less() based: - rb_add(): add a new entry to the rbtree - rb_add_cached(): like rb_add(), but for a rb_root_cached total-order; cmp() based: - rb_find(): find an entry in an rbtree - rb_find_add(): find an entry, and add if not found - rb_find_first(): find the first (leftmost) matching entry - rb_next_match(): continue from rb_find_first() - rb_for_each(): iterate a sub-tree using the previous two - Improve the SMP/NUMA load-balancer: scan for an idle sibling in a single pass. This is a 4-commit series where each commit improves one aspect of the idle sibling scan logic. - Improve the cpufreq cooling driver by getting the effective CPU utilization metrics from the scheduler - Improve the fair scheduler's active load-balancing logic by reducing the number of active LB attempts & lengthen the load-balancing interval. This improves stress-ng mmapfork performance. - Fix CFS's estimated utilization (util_est) calculation bug that can result in too high utilization values Misc updates & fixes: - Fix the HRTICK reprogramming & optimization feature - Fix SCHED_SOFTIRQ raising race & warning in the CPU offlining code - Reduce dl_add_task_root_domain() overhead - Fix uprobes refcount bug - Process pending softirqs in flush_smp_call_function_from_idle() - Clean up task priority related defines, remove *USER_*PRIO and USER_PRIO() - Simplify the sched_init_numa() deduplication sort - Documentation updates - Fix EAS bug in update_misfit_status(), which degraded the quality of energy-balancing - Smaller cleanups" * tag 'sched-core-2021-02-17' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (51 commits) sched,x86: Allow !PREEMPT_DYNAMIC entry/kvm: Explicitly flush pending rcuog wakeup before last rescheduling point entry: Explicitly flush pending rcuog wakeup before last rescheduling point rcu/nocb: Trigger self-IPI on late deferred wake up before user resume rcu/nocb: Perform deferred wake up before last idle's need_resched() check rcu: Pull deferred rcuog wake up to rcu_eqs_enter() callers sched/features: Distinguish between NORMAL and DEADLINE hrtick sched/features: Fix hrtick reprogramming sched/deadline: Reduce rq lock contention in dl_add_task_root_domain() uprobes: (Re)add missing get_uprobe() in __find_uprobe() smp: Process pending softirqs in flush_smp_call_function_from_idle() sched: Harden PREEMPT_DYNAMIC static_call: Allow module use without exposing static_call_key sched: Add /debug/sched_preempt preempt/dynamic: Support dynamic preempt with preempt= boot option preempt/dynamic: Provide irqentry_exit_cond_resched() static call preempt/dynamic: Provide preempt_schedule[_notrace]() static calls preempt/dynamic: Provide cond_resched() and might_resched() static calls preempt: Introduce CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC static_call: Provide DEFINE_STATIC_CALL_RET0() ...

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Entering RCU idle mode may cause a deferred wake up of an RCU NOCB_GP kthread (rcuog) to be serviced. Unfortunately the call to rcu_user_enter() is already past the last rescheduling opportunity before we resume to userspace or to guest mode. We may escape there with the woken task ignored. The ultimate resort to fix every callsites is to trigger a self-IPI (nohz_full depends on arch to implement arch_irq_work_raise()) that will trigger a reschedule on IRQ tail or guest exit. Eventually every site that want a saner treatment will need to carefully place a call to rcu_nocb_flush_deferred_wakeup() before the last explicit need_resched() check upon resume.

| * rcu/nocb: Perform deferred wake up before last idle's need_resched() checkFrederic Weisbecker2021-02-171-3/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Entering RCU idle mode may cause a deferred wake up of an RCU NOCB_GP kthread (rcuog) to be serviced. Usually a local wake up happening while running the idle task is handled in one of the need_resched() checks carefully placed within the idle loop that can break to the scheduler. Unfortunately the call to rcu_idle_enter() is already beyond the last generic need_resched() check and we may halt the CPU with a resched request unhandled, leaving the task hanging. Fix this with splitting the rcuog wakeup handling from rcu_idle_enter() and place it before the last generic need_resched() check in the idle loop. It is then assumed that no call to call_rcu() will be performed after that in the idle loop until the CPU is put in low power mode.

[RCU_GP_WAIT_GPS] -> [RCU_GP_DONE_GPS] The RCU_GP_WAIT_GPS state is where the GP kthread waits for a request for a new GP. Once it receives a request (for example, when a new RCU callback is queued), the GP kthread transitions to RCU_GP_DONE_GPS. b. [RCU_GP_DONE_GPS] -> [RCU_GP_ONOFF] Grace period initialization starts in rcu_gp_init(), which records the start of new GP in rcu_state.gp_seq and transitions to RCU_GP_ONOFF. c. [RCU_GP_ONOFF] -> [RCU_GP_INIT] The purpose of the RCU_GP_ONOFF state is to apply the online/offline information that was buffered for any CPUs that recently came online or went offline. This state is maintained in per-leaf rcu_node bitmasks, with the buffered state in ->qsmaskinitnext and the state for the upcoming GP in ->qsmaskinit. At the end of this RCU_GP_ONOFF state, each bit in ->qsmaskinit will correspond to a CPU that must pass through a quiescent state before the upcoming grace period is allowed to complete. However, a leaf rcu_node structure with an all-zeroes ->qsmaskinit cannot necessarily be ignored. In preemptible RCU, there might well be tasks still in RCU read-side critical sections that were first preempted while running on one of the CPUs managed by this structure. Such tasks will be queued on this structure's ->blkd_tasks list. Only after this list fully drains can this leaf rcu_node structure be ignored, and even then only if none of its CPUs have come back online in the meantime. Once that happens, the ->qsmaskinit masks further up the tree will be updated to exclude this leaf rcu_node structure. Once the ->qsmaskinitnext and ->qsmaskinit fields have been updated as needed, the GP kthread transitions to RCU_GP_INIT. d. [RCU_GP_INIT] -> [RCU_GP_WAIT_FQS] The purpose of the RCU_GP_INIT state is to copy each ->qsmaskinit to the ->qsmask field within each rcu_node structure. This copying is done breadth-first from the root to the leaves. Why not just copy directly from ->qsmaskinitnext to ->qsmask? Because the ->qsmaskinitnext masks can change in the meantime as additional CPUs come online or go offline. Such changes would result in inconsistencies in the ->qsmask fields up and down the tree, which could in turn result in too-short grace periods or grace-period hangs. These issues are avoided by snapshotting the leaf rcu_node structures' ->qsmaskinitnext fields into their ->qsmaskinit counterparts, generating a consistent set of ->qsmaskinit fields throughout the tree, and only then copying these consistent ->qsmaskinit fields to their ->qsmask counterparts. Once this initialization step is complete, the GP kthread transitions to RCU_GP_WAIT_FQS, where it waits to do a force-quiescent-state scan on the one hand or for the end of the grace period on the other. e. [RCU_GP_WAIT_FQS] -> [RCU_GP_DOING_FQS] The RCU_GP_WAIT_FQS state waits for one of three things: (1) An explicit request to do a force-quiescent-state scan, (2) The end of the grace period, or (3) A short interval of time, after which it will do a force-quiescent-state (FQS) scan. The explicit request can come from rcutorture or from any CPU that has too many RCU callbacks queued (see the qhimark kernel parameter and the RCU_GP_FLAG_OVLD flag). The aforementioned "short period of time" is specified by the jiffies_till_first_fqs boot parameter for a given grace period's first FQS scan and by the jiffies_till_next_fqs for later FQS scans. Either way, once the wait is over, the GP kthread transitions to RCU_GP_DOING_FQS. f. [RCU_GP_DOING_FQS] -> [RCU_GP_CLEANUP] The RCU_GP_DOING_FQS state performs an FQS scan. Each such scan carries out two functions for any CPU whose bit is still set in its leaf rcu_node structure's ->qsmask field, that is, for any CPU that has not yet reported a quiescent state for the current grace period: i. Report quiescent states on behalf of CPUs that have been observed to be idle (from an RCU perspective) since the beginning of the grace period. ii. If the current grace period is too old, take various actions to encourage holdout CPUs to pass through quiescent states, including enlisting the aid of any calls to cond_resched() and might_sleep(), and even including IPIing the holdout CPUs. These checks are skipped for any leaf rcu_node structure with a all-zero ->qsmask field, however such structures are subject to RCU priority boosting if there are tasks on a given structure blocking the current grace period. The end of the grace period is detected when the root rcu_node structure's ->qsmask is zero and when there are no longer any preempted tasks blocking the current grace period. (No, this last check is not redundant. To see this, consider an rcu_node tree having exactly one structure that serves as both root and leaf.) Once the end of the grace period is detected, the GP kthread transitions to RCU_GP_CLEANUP. g. [RCU_GP_CLEANUP] -> [RCU_GP_CLEANED] The RCU_GP_CLEANUP state marks the end of grace period by updating the rcu_state structure's ->gp_seq field and also all rcu_node structures' ->gp_seq field. As before, the rcu_node tree is traversed in breadth first order. Once this update is complete, the GP kthread transitions to the RCU_GP_CLEANED state. i. [RCU_GP_CLEANED] -> [RCU_GP_INIT] Once in the RCU_GP_CLEANED state, the GP kthread immediately transitions into the RCU_GP_INIT state. j. The role of timers. If there is at least one idle CPU, and if timers are not firing, the transition from RCU_GP_DOING_FQS to RCU_GP_CLEANUP will never happen. Timers can fail to fire for a number of reasons, including issues in timer configuration, issues in the timer framework, and failure to handle softirqs (for example, when there is a storm of interrupts). Whatever the reason, if the timers fail to fire, the GP kthread will never be awakened, resulting in RCU CPU stall warnings and eventually in OOM. However, an RCU CPU stall warning has a large number of potential causes, as documented in Documentation/RCU/stallwarn.rst. This commit therefore adds analysis to the RCU CPU stall-warning code to emit an additional message if the cause of the stall is likely to be timer failure.

This kernel boot parameter instead runs RCU core processing in an 'rcuc' kthread, thus allowing the scheduler to do its job of avoiding disrupting time-critical code. This commit therefore disables the rcutree.use_softirq kernel boot parameter on PREEMPT_RT systems, thus forcing such systems to do RCU core processing in 'rcuc' kthreads. This approach has long been in use by users of the -rt patchset, and there have been no complaints. There is therefore no way for the system administrator to override this choice, at least without modifying and rebuilding the kernel.

The wakeups are then carried out by calls to do_nocb_deferred_wakeup() at various safe points in the code, including RCU's idle hooks. However, when a CPU goes offline, it invokes arch_cpu_idle_dead() without invoking any of RCU's idle hooks. This commit therefore adds a call to do_nocb_deferred_wakeup() in rcu_report_dead() in order to handle any deferred wakeups that have been requested by the outgoing CPU. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

All its callbacks are migrated and none can to enqueued until after some later CPU-hotplug operation brings the CPU back up. 2) Offloaded: The ->cblist is not disabled on CPU down because the CB/GP kthreads must finish invoking the remaining callbacks. There is thus no need to re-enable it on CPU up. Since the ->cblist offloaded state is set in stone at boot, it cannot change between CPU down and CPU up. So 1) and 2) are symmetrical. However, given runtime toggling of the offloaded state, there are two additional asymmetrical scenarios: 3) The ->cblist is not offloaded when the CPU goes down. The ->cblist is later toggled to offloaded and then the CPU comes back up. 4) The ->cblist is offloaded when the CPU goes down. The ->cblist is later toggled to no longer be offloaded and then the CPU comes back up. Scenario 4) is currently handled correctly. The ->cblist remains enabled on CPU down and gets re-initialized on CPU up. The toggling operation will wait until ->cblist is empty, so ->cblist will remain empty until CPU-up time. The scenario 3) would run into trouble though, as the rdp is disabled on CPU down and not re-initialized/re-enabled on CPU up. Except that in this case, ->cblist is guaranteed to be empty because all its callbacks were migrated away at CPU-down time. And the CPU-up code already initializes and enables any empty ->cblist structures in order to handle the possibility of early-boot invocations of call_rcu() in the case where such invocations don't occur. So all that need be done is to adjust the locking.

There must never be a time at which callback processing is disabled because the task driving the offloading or de-offloading might be preempted or otherwise stalled at that point in time, which would result in OOM due to calbacks piling up indefinitely. This implies that there will be times during which a given CPU's callbacks might be concurrently invoked by both that CPU's RCU_SOFTIRQ handler (or, equivalently, that CPU's rcuc kthread) and by that CPU's rcuo kthread. This situation could fatally confuse both rcu_barrier() and the CPU-hotplug offlining process, so these must be excluded during any concurrent-callback-invocation period. In addition, during times of concurrent callback invocation, changes to ->cblist must be protected both as needed for RCU_SOFTIRQ and as needed for the rcuo kthread. This commit therefore defines and documents the states for a state machine that coordinates offloading and deoffloading.

These callbacks are first moved to a local (unsegmented) rcu_cblist. The rcu_do_batch() function then uses this rcu_cblist's ->len field to count how many CBs it has invoked, but it does so by counting that field down from zero. Finally, this function negates the value in this ->len field (resulting in a positive number) and subtracts the result from the ->len field of the current CPU's ->cblist field. Except that it is sometimes necessary for rcu_do_batch() to stop invoking callbacks mid-stream, despite there being more ready to invoke, for example, if a high-priority task wakes up. In this case the remaining not-yet-invoked callbacks are requeued back onto the CPU's ->cblist, but remain in the ready-to-invoke segment of that list. As above, the negative of the local rcu_cblist's ->len field is still subtracted from the ->len field of the current CPU's ->cblist field. The design of counting down from 0 is confusing and error-prone, plus use of a positive count will make it easier to provide a uniform and consistent API to deal with the per-segment counts that are added later in this series. For example, rcu_segcblist_extract_done_cbs() can unconditionally populate the resulting unsegmented list's ->len field during extraction. This commit therefore explicitly counts how many callbacks were executed in rcu_do_batch() itself, counting up from zero, and then uses that to update the per-CPU segcb list's ->len field, without relying on the downcounting of rcl->len from zero.

This Kconfig option checks for proper raw_spinlock vs. spinlock nesting, in particular, it is not legal to acquire a spinlock_t while holding a raw_spinlock_t. This is a problem because kfree_rcu() uses raw_spinlock_t whereas the "page allocator" internally deals with spinlock_t to access to its zones. The code also can be broken from higher level of view: <snip> raw_spin_lock(&some_lock); kfree_rcu(some_pointer, some_field_offset); <snip> b) If built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT, spinlock_t is converted into sleeplock. This means that invoking the page allocator from atomic contexts results in "BUG: scheduling while atomic". c) Please note that call_rcu() is already invoked from raw atomic context, so it is only reasonable to expaect that kfree_rcu() and kvfree_rcu() will also be called from atomic raw context. This commit therefore defers page allocation to a clean context using the combination of an hrtimer and a workqueue. The hrtimer stage is required in order to avoid deadlocks with the scheduler. This deferred allocation is required only when kvfree_rcu()'s per-CPU page cache is empty.

Unfortunately, this means that the rcu_cpu_starting() function's lock acquisition and the rcu_report_dead() function's lock releases happen while the CPU is offline from an RCU perspective, which can result in lockdep-RCU splats about using RCU from an offline CPU. And this situation can also result in too-short grace periods, especially in guest OSes that are subject to vCPU preemption. This commit therefore uses sequence-count-like synchronization to forgive use of RCU while RCU thinks a CPU is offline across the full extent of the rcu_cpu_starting() and rcu_report_dead() function's lock acquisitions and releases. One approach would have been to use the actual sequence-count primitives provided by the Linux kernel. Unfortunately, the resulting code looks completely broken and wrong, and is likely to result in patches that break RCU in an attempt to address this appearance of broken wrongness. Plus there is no net savings in lines of code, given the additional explicit memory barriers required. Therefore, this sequence count is instead implemented by a new ->ofl_seq field in the rcu_node structure. If this counter's value is an odd number, RCU forgives RCU read-side critical sections on other CPUs covered by the same rcu_node structure, even if those CPUs are offline from an RCU perspective. In addition, if a given leaf rcu_node structure's ->ofl_seq counter value is an odd number, rcu_gp_init() delays starting the grace period until that counter value changes.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Testing showed that rcu_pending() can return 1 when offloaded callbacks are ready to execute. This invokes RCU core processing, for example, by raising RCU_SOFTIRQ, eventually resulting in a call to rcu_core(). However, rcu_core() explicitly avoids in any way manipulating offloaded callbacks, which are instead handled by the rcuog and rcuoc kthreads, which work independently of rcu_core(). One exception to this independence is that rcu_core() invokes do_nocb_deferred_wakeup(), however, rcu_pending() also checks rcu_nocb_need_deferred_wakeup() in order to correctly handle this case, invoking rcu_core() when needed. This commit therefore avoids needlessly invoking RCU core processing by checking rcu_segcblist_ready_cbs() only on non-offloaded CPUs. This reduces overhead, for example, by reducing softirq activity. This change passed 30 minute tests of TREE01 through TREE09 each. On TREE08, there is at most 150us from the time that rcu_pending() chose not to invoke RCU core processing to the time when the ready callbacks were invoked by the rcuoc kthread. This provides further evidence that there is no need to invoke rcu_core() for offloaded callbacks that are ready to invoke.

However, the current interaction between RCU quiescent-state reporting and CPU-hotplug operations should mean that the incoming CPU never needs to report a quiescent state. First, the outgoing CPU reports a quiescent state if needed. Second, the race where the CPU is leaving just as RCU is initializing a new grace period is handled by an explicit check for this condition. Third, the CPU's leaf rcu_node structure's ->lock serializes these checks. This means that if rcu_cpu_starting() ever feels the need to report a quiescent state, then there is a bug somewhere in the CPU hotplug code or the RCU grace-period handling code. This commit therefore adds a WARN_ON_ONCE() to bring that bug to everyone's attention. Cc: Neeraj Upadhyay <neeraju@codeaurora.org> Suggested-by: Paul E.

When there is only a single CPU online, the simple fact that synchronize_rcu() could be legally called implies that a full grace period has elapsed. Therefore, in the single-CPU case, synchronize_rcu() simply returns immediately. Unfortunately, num_online_cpus() is unreliable while a CPU-hotplug operation is transitioning to or from single-CPU operation because: 1. num_online_cpus() uses atomic_read(&__num_online_cpus) to locklessly sample the number of online CPUs. The hotplug locks are not held, which means that an incoming CPU can concurrently update this count. This in turn means that an RCU read-side critical section on the incoming CPU might observe updates prior to the grace period, but also that this critical section might extend beyond the end of the optimized synchronize_rcu(). This breaks RCU's fundamental guarantee. 2. In addition, num_online_cpus() does no ordering, thus providing another way that RCU's fundamental guarantee can be broken by the current code. 3. The most probable failure mode happens on outgoing CPUs. The outgoing CPU updates the count of online CPUs in the CPUHP_TEARDOWN_CPU stop-machine handler, which is fine in and of itself due to preemption being disabled at the call to num_online_cpus(). Unfortunately, after that stop-machine handler returns, the CPU takes one last trip through the scheduler (which has RCU readers) and, after the resulting context switch, one final dive into the idle loop. During this time, RCU needs to keep track of two CPUs, but num_online_cpus() will say that there is only one, which in turn means that the surviving CPU will incorrectly ignore the outgoing CPU's RCU read-side critical sections. This problem is illustrated by the following litmus test in which P0() corresponds to synchronize_rcu() and P1() corresponds to the incoming CPU. The herd7 tool confirms that the "exists" clause can be satisfied, thus demonstrating that this breakage can happen according to the Linux kernel memory model. { int x = 0; atomic_t numonline = ATOMIC_INIT(1); } P0(int *x, atomic_t *numonline) { int r0; WRITE_ONCE(*x, 1); r0 = atomic_read(numonline); if (r0 == 1) { smp_mb(); } else { synchronize_rcu(); } WRITE_ONCE(*x, 2); } P1(int *x, atomic_t *numonline) { int r0; int r1; atomic_inc(numonline); smp_mb(); rcu_read_lock(); r0 = READ_ONCE(*x); smp_rmb(); r1 = READ_ONCE(*x); rcu_read_unlock(); } locations [x;numonline;] exists (1:r0=0 /\ 1:r1=2) It is important to note that these problems arise only when the system is transitioning to or from single-CPU operation. One solution would be to hold the CPU-hotplug locks while sampling num_online_cpus(), which was in fact the intent of the (redundant) preempt_disable() and preempt_enable() surrounding this call to num_online_cpus(). Actually blocking CPU hotplug would not only result in excessive overhead, but would also unnecessarily impede CPU-hotplug operations. This commit therefore follows long-standing RCU tradition by maintaining a separate RCU-specific set of CPU-hotplug books. This separate set of books is implemented by a new ->n_online_cpus field in the rcu_state structure that maintains RCU's count of the online CPUs. This count is incremented early in the CPU-online process, so that the critical transition away from single-CPU operation will occur when there is only a single CPU. Similarly for the critical transition to single-CPU operation, the counter is decremented late in the CPU-offline process, again while there is only a single CPU. Because there is only ever a single CPU when the ->n_online_cpus field undergoes the critical 1->2 and 2->1 transitions, full memory ordering and mutual exclusion is provided implicitly and, better yet, for free. In the case where the CPU is coming online, nothing will happen until the current CPU helps it come online. Therefore, the new CPU will see all accesses prior to the optimized grace period, which means that RCU does not need to further delay this new CPU. In the case where the CPU is going offline, the outgoing CPU is totally out of the picture before the optimized grace period starts, which means that this outgoing CPU cannot see any of the accesses following that grace period. Again, RCU needs no further interaction with the outgoing CPU. This does mean that synchronize_rcu() will unnecessarily do a few grace periods the hard way just before the second CPU comes online and just after the second-to-last CPU goes offline, but it is not worth optimizing this uncommon case.
