Currently, the expedited grace-period primitives do get_online_cpus().
This greatly simplifies their implementation, but means that calls
to them holding locks that are acquired by CPU-hotplug notifiers (to
say nothing of calls to these primitives from CPU-hotplug notifiers)
can deadlock. But this is starting to become inconvenient, as can be
seen here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/8/5/754. The problem in this
case is that some developers need to acquire a mutex from a CPU-hotplug
notifier, but also need to hold it across a synchronize_rcu_expedited().
As noted above, this currently results in deadlock.
This commit avoids the deadlock and retains the simplicity by creating
a try_get_online_cpus(), which returns false if the get_online_cpus()
reference count could not immediately be incremented. If a call to
try_get_online_cpus() returns true, the expedited primitives operate as
before. If a call returns false, the expedited primitives fall back to
normal grace-period operations. This falling back of course results in
increased grace-period latency, but only during times when CPU hotplug
operations are actually in flight. The effect should therefore be
negligible during normal operation.

When performing module cleanups by calling torture_cleanup() the
'torture_type' string in nullified However, callers are not necessarily
done, and might still need to reference the variable. This impacts
both rcutorture and locktorture, causing printing things like:
[ 94.226618] (null)-torture: Stopping lock_torture_writer task
[ 94.226624] (null)-torture: Stopping lock_torture_stats task
Thus delay this operation until the very end of the cleanup process.
The consequence (which shouldn't matter for this kid of program) is,
of course, that we delay the window between rmmod and modprobing,
for instance in module_torture_begin().

The rcu_bh_qs(), rcu_preempt_qs(), and rcu_sched_qs() functions use
old-style per-CPU variable access and write to ->passed_quiesce even
if it is already set. This commit therefore updates to use the new-style
per-CPU variable access functions and avoids the spurious writes.
This commit also eliminates the "cpu" argument to these functions because
they are always invoked on the indicated CPU.

The rcu_preempt_note_context_switch() function is on a scheduling fast
path, so it would be good to avoid disabling irqs. The reason that irqs
are disabled is to synchronize process-level and irq-handler access to
the task_struct ->rcu_read_unlock_special bitmask. This commit therefore
makes ->rcu_read_unlock_special instead be a union of bools with a short
allowing single-access checks in RCU's __rcu_read_unlock(). This results
in the process-level and irq-handler accesses being simple loads and
stores, so that irqs need no longer be disabled. This commit therefore
removes the irq disabling from rcu_preempt_note_context_switch().

In theory, synchronize_sched() requires a read-side critical section
to order against. In practice, preemption can be thought of as
being disabled across every machine instruction, at least for those
machine instructions that are not in the idle loop and not on offline
CPUs. So this commit removes the redundant preempt_disable() from
rcu_note_voluntary_context_switch().
Please note that the single instruction in question is the store of
zero to ->rcu_tasks_holdout. The "if" is simply a performance optimization
that avoids unnecessary stores. To see this, keep in mind that both
the "if" condition and the store are in a quiescent state. Therefore,
even if the task is preempted for a full grace period (presumably due
to its having done a context switch beforehand), the store will be
recording a legitimate quiescent state.

Currently TASKS_RCU would ignore a CPU running a task in nohz_full=
usermode execution. There would be neither a context switch nor a
scheduling-clock interrupt to tell TASKS_RCU that the task in question
had passed through a quiescent state. The grace period would therefore
extend indefinitely. This commit therefore makes RCU's dyntick-idle
subsystem record the task_struct structure of the task that is running
in dyntick-idle mode on each CPU. The TASKS_RCU grace period can
then access this information and record a quiescent state on
behalf of any CPU running in dyntick-idle usermode.

Once a task has passed exit_notify() in the do_exit() code path, it
is no longer on the task lists, and is therefore no longer visible
to rcu_tasks_kthread(). This means that an almost-exited task might
be preempted while within a trampoline, and this task won't be waited
on by rcu_tasks_kthread(). This commit fixes this bug by adding an
srcu_struct. An exiting task does srcu_read_lock() just before calling
exit_notify(), and does the corresponding srcu_read_unlock() after
doing the final preempt_disable(). This means that rcu_tasks_kthread()
can do synchronize_srcu() to wait for all mostly-exited tasks to reach
their final preempt_disable() region, and then use synchronize_sched()
to wait for those tasks to finish exiting.

It turns out to be easier to add the synchronous grace-period waiting
functions to RCU-tasks than to work around their absense in rcutorture,
so this commit adds them. The key point is that the existence of
call_rcu_tasks() means that rcutorture needs an rcu_barrier_tasks().

RCU-tasks requires the occasional voluntary context switch
from CPU-bound in-kernel tasks. In some cases, this requires
instrumenting cond_resched(). However, there is some reluctance
to countenance unconditionally instrumenting cond_resched() (see
http://lwn.net/Articles/603252/), so this commit creates a separate
cond_resched_rcu_qs() that may be used in place of cond_resched() in
locations prone to long-duration in-kernel looping.
This commit currently instruments only RCU-tasks. Future possibilities
include also instrumenting RCU, RCU-bh, and RCU-sched in order to reduce
IPI usage.

This commit adds a new RCU-tasks flavor of RCU, which provides
call_rcu_tasks(). This RCU flavor's quiescent states are voluntary
context switch (not preemption!) and userspace execution (not the idle
loop -- use some sort of schedule_on_each_cpu() if you need to handle the
idle tasks. Note that unlike other RCU flavors, these quiescent states
occur in tasks, not necessarily CPUs. Includes fixes from Steven Rostedt.
This RCU flavor is assumed to have very infrequent latency-tolerant
updaters. This assumption permits significant simplifications, including
a single global callback list protected by a single global lock, along
with a single task-private linked list containing all tasks that have not
yet passed through a quiescent state. If experience shows this assumption
to be incorrect, the required additional complexity will be added.

User pr_alert/pr_cont for printing the logs from rcutorture module directly
instead of writing it to a buffer and then printing it. This allows us from not
having to allocate such buffers. Also remove a resulting empty function.
I tested this using the parse-torture.sh script as follows:
$ dmesg | grep torture > log.txt
$ bash parse-torture.sh log.txt test
$
There were no warnings which means that parsing went fine.

Commit b58cc46c5f6b (rcu: Don't offload callbacks unless specifically
requested) failed to adjust the callback lists of the CPUs that are
known to be no-CBs CPUs only because they are also nohz_full= CPUs.
This failure can result in callbacks that are posted during early boot
getting stranded on nxtlist for CPUs whose no-CBs property becomes
apparent late, and there can also be spurious warnings about offline
CPUs posting callbacks.
This commit fixes these problems by adding an early-boot rcu_init_nohz()
that properly initializes the no-CBs CPUs.
Note that kernels built with CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_ALL=y or with
CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU=n do not exhibit this bug. Neither do kernels
booted without the nohz_full= boot parameter.

This commit uninlines rcu_read_lock_held(). According to "size vmlinux"
this saves 28549 in .text:
- 5541731 3014560 14757888 23314179
+ 5513182 3026848 14757888 23297918
Note: it looks as if the data grows by 12288 bytes but this is not true,
it does not actually grow. But .data starts with ALIGN(THREAD_SIZE) and
since .text shrinks the padding grows, and thus .data grows too as it
seen by /bin/size. diff System.map:
- ffffffff81510000 D _sdata
- ffffffff81510000 D init_thread_union
+ ffffffff81509000 D _sdata
+ ffffffff8150c000 D init_thread_union
Perhaps we can change vmlinux.lds.S to .data itself, so that /bin/size
can't "wrongly" report that .data grows if .text shinks.

This handles the 'nonblock=false' case in nfs_lock_and_join_requests.
If the group is already locked and blocking is allowed, drop the inode lock
and wait for the group lock to be cleared before trying it all again.
This should fix warnings found in peterz's tree (sched/wait branch), where
might_sleep() checks are added to wait.[ch].

Pull fix for ftrace function tracer/profiler conflict from Steven Rostedt:
"The rewrite of the ftrace code that makes it possible to allow for
separate trampolines had a design flaw with the interaction between
the function and function_graph tracers.
The main flaw was the simplification of the use of multiple tracers
having the same filter (like function and function_graph, that use the
set_ftrace_filter file to filter their code). The design assumed that
the two tracers could never run simultaneously as only one tracer can
be used at a time. The problem with this assumption was that the
function profiler could be implemented on top of the function graph
tracer, and the function profiler could run at the same time as the
function tracer. This caused the assumption to be broken and when
ftrace detected this failed assumpiton it would spit out a nasty
warning and shut itself down.
Instead of using a single ftrace_ops that switches between the
function and function_graph callbacks, the two tracers can again use
their own ftrace_ops. But instead of having a complex hierarchy of
ftrace_ops, the filter fields are placed in its own structure and the
ftrace_ops can carefully use the same filter. This change took a bit
to be able to allow for this and currently only the global_ops can
share the same filter, but this new design can easily be modified to
allow for any ftrace_ops to share its filter with another ftrace_ops.
The first four patches deal with the change of allowing the ftrace_ops
to share the filter (and this needs to go to 3.16 as well).
The fifth patch fixes a bug that was also caused by the new changes
but only for archs other than x86, and only if those archs implement a
direct call to the function_graph tracer which they do not do yet but
will in the future. It does not need to go to stable, but needs to be
fixed before the other archs update their code to allow direct calls
to the function_graph trampoline"

Currently the top level debug file system function tracer shares its
ftrace_ops with the function graph tracer. This was thought to be fine
because the tracers are not used together, as one can only enable
function or function_graph tracer in the current_tracer file.
But that assumption proved to be incorrect. The function profiler
can use the function graph tracer when function tracing is enabled.
Since all function graph users uses the function tracing ftrace_ops
this causes a conflict and when a user enables both function profiling
as well as the function tracer it will crash ftrace and disable it.
The quick solution so far is to move them as separate ftrace_ops like
it was earlier. The problem though is to synchronize the functions that
are traced because both function and function_graph tracer are limited
by the selections made in the set_ftrace_filter and set_ftrace_notrace
files.
To handle this, a new structure is made called ftrace_ops_hash. This
structure will now hold the filter_hash and notrace_hash, and the
ftrace_ops will point to this structure. That will allow two ftrace_ops
to share the same hashes.
Since most ftrace_ops do not share the hashes, and to keep allocation
simple, the ftrace_ops structure will include both a pointer to the
ftrace_ops_hash called func_hash, as well as the structure itself,
called local_hash. When the ops are registered, the func_hash pointer
will be initialized to point to the local_hash within the ftrace_ops
structure. Some of the ftrace internal ftrace_ops will be initialized
statically. This will allow for the function and function_graph tracer
to have separate ops but still share the same hash tables that determine
what functions they trace.

Pull networking fixes from David Miller:
"Here are some bug fixes that have piled up during ksummit/linuxcon.
1) Fix endian problems in ibmveth, from Anton Blanchard.
2) IPV6 routing code does GFP_KERNEL allocation in atomic, fix from
Benjamin Block.
3) SCTP association fixes from Daniel Borkmann.
4) When multiple VLAN headers are present we have to make sure the
second and subsequent ones are pullable in the SKB otherwise we
blindly dereference garbage. From Jiri Benc.
5) The argument adjustment of the signature of hlist_add_after*()
introduced a regression in the batman-adv code, fix from Sven
Eckelmann.
6) Fix TX hang handling to avoid a panic in i40e, from Anjali Singhai
Jain.
7) PTP flag test is inverted in i40e driver, from Jesse Brandeburg.
8) ATM LEC driver needs to hold RTNL mutex over MTU changes, from
Chas Williams.
9) Truncate packets larger then the TPACKET_V3 format configured
buffers, otherwise we overwrite past the end of said buffers.
From Eric Dumazet.
10) Fix endianness bugs in qlcnic firmware handling, from Rajesh
Borundia and Shahed Shaikh.
11) CXGB4 sometimes doesn't get all of the TX completion events it
should resulting in SKBs getting stuck in the TX queue, from
Hariprasad Shenai.
12) When the FEC chip's PTP clock is disabled, you can't access the
register. Add necessary checks to avoid the resulting hang, from
Fugang Duan"

A wildcard entry with the 32-bits OUI 0x600d8400 was added as part of
the BCM7xxx internal PHY driver, but that entry might match other PHYs
that are not covered by this driver, so let's just remove it.

Commit 9183df25fe7b ("shm: add memfd_create() syscall") added a new
system call (memfd_create) but didn't update the asm-generic unistd
header.
This patch adds the new system call to the asm-generic version of
unistd.h so that it can be used by architectures such as arm64.

Commit da3c6647(I2C/ACPI: Clean up I2C ACPI code and Add CONFIG_I2C_ACPI
config) adds a new kernel config I2C_ACPI and make I2C core built in
when the config is selected. This is wrong because distributions
etc generally compile I2C as a module and the commit broken that.
This patch is to rename I2C_ACPI to ACPI_I2C_OPREGION. New config
only controls ACPI I2C operation region code and depends on I2C=y.

No need to export rht_obj(), all inner to outer object translations
occur internally. It was intended to be used with rht_for_each() which
now primarily serves as the iterator for rhashtable_remove_pprev() to
effectively flush and free the full table.

Properly annotate next pointers as access is RCU protected in
the lookup path.

tcp_tw_recycle heavily relies on tcp timestamps to build a per-host
ordering of incoming connections and teardowns without the need to
hold state on a specific quadruple for TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN, but only for
the last measured RTO. To do so, we keep the last seen timestamp in a
per-host indexed data structure and verify if the incoming timestamp
in a connection request is strictly greater than the saved one during
last connection teardown. Thus we can verify later on that no old data
packets will be accepted by the new connection.
During moving a socket to time-wait state we already verify if timestamps
where seen on a connection. Only if that was the case we let the
time-wait socket expire after the RTO, otherwise normal TCP_TIMEWAIT_LEN
will be used. But we don't verify this on incoming SYN packets. If a
connection teardown was less than TCP_PAWS_MSL seconds in the past we
cannot guarantee to not accept data packets from an old connection if
no timestamps are present. We should drop this SYN packet. This patch
closes this loophole.
Please note, this patch does not make tcp_tw_recycle in any way more
usable but only adds another safety check:
Sporadic drops of SYN packets because of reordering in the network or
in the socket backlog queues can happen. Users behing NAT trying to
connect to a tcp_tw_recycle enabled server can get caught in blackholes
and their connection requests may regullary get dropped because hosts
behind an address translator don't have synchronized tcp timestamp clocks.
tcp_tw_recycle cannot work if peers don't have tcp timestamps enabled.
In general, use of tcp_tw_recycle is disadvised.
