https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/23/322.
3) A couple of commits that improve the efficiency of the interaction
between preemptible RCU and the scheduler, these two being all
that survived an abortive attempt to allow preemptible RCU's
__rcu_read_lock() to be inlined. The full set was posted to

The current RCU_FAST_NO_HZ assumes that timers do not migrate unless a
CPU goes offline, in which case it assumes that the CPU will have to come
out of dyntick-idle mode (cancelling the timer) in order to go offline.
This is important because when RCU_FAST_NO_HZ permits a CPU to enter
dyntick-idle mode despite having RCU callbacks pending, it posts a timer
on that CPU to force a wakeup on that CPU. This wakeup ensures that the
CPU will eventually handle the end of the grace period, including invoking
its RCU callbacks.
However, Pascal Chapperon's test setup shows that the timer handler
rcu_idle_gp_timer_func() really does get invoked in some cases. This is
problematic because this can cause the CPU that entered dyntick-idle
mode despite still having RCU callbacks pending to remain in
dyntick-idle mode indefinitely, which means that its RCU callbacks might
never be invoked. This situation can result in grace-period delays or
even system hangs, which matches Pascal's observations of slow boot-up
and shutdown (https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/5/142). See also the bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=806548
This commit therefore causes the "should never be invoked" timer handler
rcu_idle_gp_timer_func() to use smp_call_function_single() to wake up
the CPU for which the timer was intended, allowing that CPU to invoke
its RCU callbacks in a timely manner.

Neither compare_ether_addr() nor compare_ether_addr_64bits()
(as it can fall back to the former) have comparison semantics
like memcmp() where the sign of the return value indicates sort

ACPI: Fix D3hot v D3cold confusion
Before this patch, ACPI_STATE_D3 incorrectly referenced D3hot
in some places, but D3cold in other places.
After this patch, ACPI_STATE_D3 always means ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD;
and all references to D3hot use ACPI_STATE_D3_HOT.
ACPI's _PR3 method is used to enter both D3hot and D3cold states.
What distinguishes D3hot from D3cold is the presence _PR3
(Power Resources for D3hot) If these resources are all ON,
then the state is D3hot. If _PR3 is not present,
or all _PR0 resources for the devices are OFF,
then the state is D3cold.
This patch applies after Linux-3.4-rc1.
A future syntax cleanup may remove ACPI_STATE_D3
to emphasize that it always means ACPI_STATE_D3_COLD.

The normal read_seqcount_begin() function will wait for any current
writers to exit their critical region by looping until the sequence
count is even.
That "wait for sequence count to stabilize" is the right thing to do if
the read-locker will just retry the whole operation on contention: no
point in doing a potentially expensive reader sequence if we know at the
beginning that we'll just end up re-doing it all.
HOWEVER. Some users don't actually retry the operation, but instead
will abort and do the operation with proper locking. So the sequence
count case may be the optimistic quick case, but in the presense of
writers you may want to do full locking in order to guarantee forward
progress. The prime example of this would be the RCU name lookup.
And in that case, you may well be better off without the "retry early",
and are in a rush to instead get to the failure handling. Thus this
"raw" interface that just returns the sequence number without testing it
- it just forces the low bit to zero so that read_seqcount_retry() will
always fail such a "active concurrent writer" scenario.

We really need to use a ACCESS_ONCE() on the sequence value read in
__read_seqcount_begin(), because otherwise the compiler might end up
reloading the value in between the test and the return of it. As a
result, it might end up returning an odd value (which means that a write
is in progress).
If the reader is then fast enough that that odd value is still the
current one when the read_seqcount_retry() is done, we might end up with
a "successful" read sequence, even despite the concurrent write being
active.
In practice this probably never really happens - there just isn't
anything else going on around the read of the sequence count, and the
common case is that we end up having a read barrier immediately
afterwards.
So the code sequence in which gcc might decide to reaload from memory is
small, and there's no reason to believe it would ever actually do the
reload. But if the compiler ever were to decide to do so, it would be
incredibly annoying to debug. Let's just make sure.

When running preemptible RCU, if a task exits in an RCU read-side
critical section having blocked within that same RCU read-side critical
section, the task must be removed from the list of tasks blocking a
grace period (perhaps the current grace period, perhaps the next grace
period, depending on timing). The exit() path invokes exit_rcu() to
do this cleanup.
However, the current implementation of exit_rcu() needlessly does the
cleanup even if the task did not block within the current RCU read-side
critical section, which wastes time and needlessly increases the size
of the state space. Fix this by only doing the cleanup if the current
task is actually on the list of tasks blocking some grace period.
While we are at it, consolidate the two identical exit_rcu() functions
into a single function.

This commit implements an SRCU state machine in support of call_srcu().
The state machine is preemptible, light-weight, and single-threaded,
minimizing synchronization overhead. In particular, there is no longer
any need for synchronize_srcu() to be guarded by a mutex.
Expedited processing is handled, at least in the absence of concurrent
grace-period operations on that same srcu_struct structure, by having
the synchronize_srcu_expedited() thread take on the role of the
workqueue thread for one iteration.
There is a reasonable probability that a given SRCU callback will
be invoked on the same CPU that registered it, however, there is no
guarantee. Concurrent SRCU grace-period primitives can cause callbacks
to be executed elsewhere, even in absence of CPU-hotplug operations.
Callbacks execute in process context, but under the influence of
local_bh_disable(), so it is illegal to sleep in an SRCU callback
function.

o Make the checking lock-free to enable parallel checking.
Parallel checking is required when (1) the original checking
task is preempted for a long time, (2) sychronize_srcu_expedited()
starts during an ongoing SRCU grace period, or (3) we wish to
avoid acquiring a lock.
o Since the checking is lock-free, we avoid a mutex in state machine
for call_srcu().
o Remove the SRCU_REF_MASK and remove the coupling with the flipping.
This might allow us to remove the preempt_disable() in future
versions, though such removal will need great care because it
rescinds the one-old-reader-per-CPU guarantee.
o Remove a smp_mb(), simplify the comments and make the smp_mb() pairs

The purpose of the upper bit of SRCU's per-CPU counters is to guarantee
that no reasonable series of srcu_read_lock() and srcu_read_unlock()
operations can return the value of the counter to its original value.
This guarantee is require only after the index has been switched to
the other set of counters, so at most one srcu_read_lock() can affect
a given CPU's counter. The number of srcu_read_unlock() operations
on a given counter is limited to the number of tasks in the system,
which given the Linux kernel's current structure is limited to far less
than 2^30 on 32-bit systems and far less than 2^62 on 64-bit systems.
(Something about a limited number of bytes in the kernel's address space.)
Therefore, if srcu_read_lock() increments the upper bits, then
srcu_read_unlock() need not do so. In this case, an srcu_read_lock() and
an srcu_read_unlock() will flip the lower bit of the upper field of the
counter. An unreasonably large additional number of srcu_read_unlock()
operations would be required to return the counter to its initial value,
thus preserving the guarantee.
This commit takes this approach, which further allows it to shrink
the size of the upper field to one bit, making the number of
srcu_read_unlock() operations required to return the counter to its
initial value even more unreasonable than before.

The current implementation of synchronize_srcu_expedited() can cause
severe OS jitter due to its use of synchronize_sched(), which in turn
invokes try_stop_cpus(), which causes each CPU to be sent an IPI.
This can result in severe performance degradation for real-time workloads
and especially for short-interation-length HPC workloads. Furthermore,
because only one instance of try_stop_cpus() can be making forward progress
at a given time, only one instance of synchronize_srcu_expedited() can
make forward progress at a time, even if they are all operating on
distinct srcu_struct structures.
This commit, inspired by an earlier implementation by Peter Zijlstra
(https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/1/31/211) and by further offline discussions,
takes a strictly algorithmic bits-in-memory approach. This has the
disadvantage of requiring one explicit memory-barrier instruction in
each of srcu_read_lock() and srcu_read_unlock(), but on the other hand
completely dispenses with OS jitter and furthermore allows SRCU to be
used freely by CPUs that RCU believes to be idle or offline.
The update-side implementation handles the single read-side memory
barrier by rechecking the per-CPU counters after summing them and
by running through the update-side state machine twice.
This implementation has passed moderate rcutorture testing on both
x86 and Power. Also updated to use this_cpu_ptr() instead of per_cpu_ptr(),
as suggested by Peter Zijlstra.

The actual internal pipe implementation is already really about
individual packets (called "pipe buffers"), and this simply exposes that
as a special packetized mode.
When we are in the packetized mode (marked by O_DIRECT as suggested by
Alan Cox), a write() on a pipe will not merge the new data with previous
writes, so each write will get a pipe buffer of its own. The pipe
buffer is then marked with the PIPE_BUF_FLAG_PACKET flag, which in turn
will tell the reader side to break the read at that boundary (and throw
away any partial packet contents that do not fit in the read buffer).
End result: as long as you do writes less than PIPE_BUF in size (so that
the pipe doesn't have to split them up), you can now treat the pipe as a
packet interface, where each read() system call will read one packet at
a time. You can just use a sufficiently big read buffer (PIPE_BUF is
sufficient, since bigger than that doesn't guarantee atomicity anyway),
and the return value of the read() will naturally give you the size of
the packet.
NOTE! We do not support zero-sized packets, and zero-sized reads and
writes to a pipe continue to be no-ops. Also note that big packets will
currently be split at write time, but that the size at which that
happens is not really specified (except that it's bigger than PIPE_BUF).
Currently that limit is the system page size, but we might want to
explicitly support bigger packets some day.
The main user for this is going to be the autofs packet interface,
allowing us to stop having to care so deeply about exact packet sizes

Here are a number of small USB fixes for 3.4-rc5.
Nothing major, as before, some USB gadget fixes. There's a crash fix
for a number of ASUS laptops on resume that had been reported by a
number of different people. We think the fix might also pertain to
other machines, as this was a BIOS bug, and they seem to travel to
different models and manufacturers quite easily. Other than that, some
other reported problems fixed as well.

The rcu_blocking_is_gp() function tests to see if there is only one
online CPU, and if so, synchronize_sched() and friends become no-ops.
However, for larger systems, num_online_cpus() scans a large vector,
and might be preempted while doing so. While preempted, any number
of CPUs might come online and go offline, potentially resulting in
num_online_cpus() returning 1 when there never had only been one
CPU online. This could result in a too-short RCU grace period, which
could in turn result in total failure, except that the only way that
the grace period is too short is if there is an RCU read-side critical
section spanning it. For RCU-sched and RCU-bh (which are the only
cases using rcu_blocking_is_gp()), RCU read-side critical sections
have either preemption or bh disabled, which prevents CPUs from going
offline. This in turn prevents actual failures from occurring.
This commit therefore adds a large block comment to rcu_blocking_is_gp()
documenting why it is safe. This commit also moves rcu_blocking_is_gp()
into kernel/rcutree.c, which should help prevent unwary developers from
mistaking it for a generally useful function.

Currently, __kfree_rcu() is implemented as an inline function, and
contains a BUILD_BUG_ON() that malfunctions if __kfree_rcu() is compiled
as an out-of-line function. Unfortunately, there are compiler settings
(e.g., -O0) that can result in __kfree_rcu() being compiled out of line,
resulting in annoying build breakage. This commit therefore converts
both __kfree_rcu() and __is_kfree_rcu_offset() from inline functions to
macros to prevent such misbehavior on the part of the compiler.

The list_first_entry_rcu() macro is inherently unsafe because it cannot
be applied to an empty list. But because RCU readers do not exclude
updaters, a list might become empty between the time that list_empty()
claimed it was non-empty and the time that list_first_entry_rcu() is
invoked. Therefore, the list_empty() test cannot be separated from the
list_first_entry_rcu() call. This commit therefore combines these to
macros to create a new list_first_or_null_rcu() macro that replaces
the old (and unsafe) list_first_entry_rcu() macro.
This patch incorporates Paul's review comments on the previous version of
this patch available here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2012/4/2/536
This patch cannot break any upstream code because list_first_entry_rcu()
is not being used anywhere in the kernel (tested with grep(1)), and any
external code using it is probably broken as a result of using it.

This patch (as1545) fixes a problem affecting several ASUS computers:
The machine crashes or corrupts memory when going into suspend if the
ehci-hcd driver is bound to any controllers. Users have been forced
to unbind or unload ehci-hcd before putting their systems to sleep.
After extensive testing, it was determined that the machines don't
like going into suspend when any EHCI controllers are in the PCI D3
power state. Presumably this is a firmware bug, but there's nothing
we can do about it except to avoid putting the controllers in D3
during system sleep.
The patch adds a new flag to indicate whether the problem is present,
and avoids changing the controller's power state if the flag is set.
Runtime suspend is unaffected; this matters only for system suspend.
However as a side effect, the controller will not respond to remote
wakeup requests while the system is asleep. Hence USB wakeup is not
functional -- but of course, this is already true in the current state
of affairs.
This fixes Bugzilla #42728.

For the particular issue of x32, which shares code with i386 in the
handling of compat_siginfo_t, the use of a 64-bit clock_t bumps the
sigchld structure out of alignment, which triggers a messy cascade of
padding.
This was already handled on the kernel compat side, but it needs
handling on the user space side, which uses the generic header. To
make that possible:
1. Allow __kernel_clock_t to be overridden in struct siginfo;
2. Allow there to be attributes added to struct siginfo.
