[PATCH RFC 01/10] rcu-tasks: TASKS_TRACE_RCU doesn't need IRQ_WORK

[Paul E. McKenney]

Now that Tasks Trace RCU is implemented in terms of SRCU, it no longer
has any particular need for the IRQ_WORK Kconfig option.  This commit
therefore removes the "select IRQ_WORK" from the TASKS_TRACE_RCU Kconfig
option.

[PATCH RFC 02/10] rcu-tasks: Remove unused struct rcu_tasks's->n_ipis_fails variables

[Paul E. McKenney]

From: Zqiang <qiang.zhang@linux.dev>

The RCU tasks trace has been reimplemented by 'commit c27cea4416a3
("rcu: Re-implement RCU Tasks Trace in terms of SRCU-fast")', the
rcu_tasks structure's->n_ipis_fails is no longer used, this commit
therefore remove it.

[Paul E. McKenney]

Now that rcutorture tests readers from interrupt handlers, KCSAN spotted
an additional data race.  This commit therefore fixes it by applying

[PATCH RFC 05/10] rcu-tasks: Remove smp_mb() in rcu_spawn_tasks_kthread_generic()

[Paul E. McKenney]

From: Zqiang <qiang.zhang@linux.dev>

For the smp_mb() after kthread_run() in rcu_spawn_tasks_kthread_generic()
from these commits:

'commit eacd6f04a133 ("rcu-tasks: Move Tasks RCU to its own file")'
'commit 84a8f446ffd7 ("rcu: Defer rcu_tasks_kthread() creation till
 first call_rcu_tasks()")'

the memory order pairing as follows:

rcu_spawn_tasks_kthread()
->t = kthread_run(rcu_tasks_kthread, ...);
->smp_mb(); /* Ensure others see full kthread. */
->WRITE_ONCE(rcu_tasks_kthread_ptr, t);

							call_rcu_tasks()
					      		->if (READ_ONCE(rcu_tasks_kthread_ptr))
					         	  ->wake_up(&rcu_tasks_cbs_wq)
							    ->try_to_wake_up()
							      lock pi_lock
							      ->smp_mb__after_spinlock()
								//see full kthread

Because the 'commit d119357d0743 ("rcu-tasks: Treat only synchronous
grace periods urgently")' moved the kthread_ptr assignment into the
rcu_tasks_kthread() function, the following memory order pairings are
sufficient:

The runq's raw_spinlock/unlock(or smp_mb__after_spinlock()) from
wake_up_process() in kthread_run() and __schedule() provides memory order
barrier when the kthread is first scheduled, this ensures the kthread's
func observes all of the kthread's initialization.

The kthread's smp_store_release(&rtp->kthread_ptr, ...) in
rcu_tasks_kthread() and smp_load_acquire(&rtp->kthread_ptr)
in call_rcu_tasks_generic() compose release/acquire pairing, the
cumulativity of smp_store_release() propagates visibility of the kthread's
initialization through the scheduler chain.

This commit therefore remove smp_mb() in rcu_spawn_tasks_kthread_generic().

call_rcu_tasks() tolerate first call with irqs disabled")' to be more
clear and also to cover deferred wakeup and to take into account the fact

[PATCH RFC 07/10] rcu-tasks: Dump rtpcp->lazy_timer status in show_rcu_tasks_generic_gp_kthread()

[Paul E. McKenney]

From: Zqiang <qiang.zhang@linux.dev>

Add 'P' flag to the diagnostic line to indicate whether any per-cpu
rtpcp's lazy_timer is pending.  this helps diagnose stalls where
rcu-task callbacks are queued but the kthread stay sleep because
the lazy_timer has not yet fired and no grace period has started.

The output is as follows:

[PATCH RFC 08/10] rcu-tasks: Fix IRQ read lock/unlock data race

[Paul E. McKenney]

As noted by Marco Elver:

rcu_read_lock_trace()
   ....
t->trc_reader_scp = __srcu_read_lock_fast(&rcu_tasks_trace_srcu_struct);
	<interrupt>
					rcu_read_unlock_trace()
					< ... var decls only ... >
					scp = t->trc_reader_scp;

This constitutes a data race between these two accesses to
t->trc_reader_scp.  If rcu_read_lock_trace() were to tear its store,
this value would be corrupted.

This commit therefore defers the rcu_read_lock_untrace() function's
load from t->trc_reader_scp until after it has verified that this is
the outermost rcu_read_unlock_trace().  With this change, the interrupt
handler increments and decrements t->trc_reader_nesting and does not
access t->trc_reader_scp, thus avoiding the data race.

KCSAN located this issue.
