Implement a simplistic per-cpu maximum priority cpu monopolization
mechanism. A non-sleeping callback can be scheduled to run on one or
multiple cpus with maximum priority monopolozing those cpus. This is
primarily to replace and unify RT workqueue usage in stop_machine and
scheduler migration_thread which currently is serving multiple
purposes.
Four functions are provided - stop_one_cpu(), stop_one_cpu_nowait(),
stop_cpus() and try_stop_cpus().
This is to allow clean sharing of resources among stop_cpu and all the
migration thread users. One stopper thread per cpu is created which
is currently named "stopper/CPU". This will eventually replace the
migration thread and take on its name.
* This facility was originally named cpuhog and lived in separate
files but Peter Zijlstra nacked the name and thus got renamed to
cpu_stop and moved into stop_machine.c.

Not sure if its worth the hassle, but you could list_splice_init() the
complete pending list onto a local list, possible avoiding some locks.
But since this isn't supposed to be used much, I doubt we'll ever see
the difference.

You would use WARN_ONCE() and print the function that last ran and
leaked the preempt count.

Yeah, I think it would be better to keep the code simple there.

Updated to use WARN_ONCE() w/ print the function symbol and argument.

Now that I think more about it, there's a subtle race condition with
the above BUG_ON(). Stoppers are prepared by CPU_UP_PREPARE and
started by CPU_ONLINE but brought down by CPU_DEAD. IOW, they're
allowed to run detached from their designated CPUs between CPU_DYING
and CPU_DEAD (the reponsibility of guaranteeing target cpus's onliness
is on the callers). So, the above BUG_ON() might trigger spuriously
if a cpu goes down after brought online before its cpu_stopper had a
chance to pass through the BUG_ON() test.
Thanks.

Ah indeed. A well, drop it then, its not worth making a more complicated
test.

If you do:
done = { .ret = -ENOENT, };
And remove that if()

You can do away with all the ->executed bits.

Oh, I had code piece which wanted to discern between -ENOENT from
non-excution and -ENOENT return from the work function which seems
gone now. I'll check things again and drop ->executed if everything
looks okay.
Thanks.

Eh... now I remember. If we start with ->ret = 0, stop_cpus() can't
return -ENOENT when none of the specified cpus executed without
tracking execution status (so the current code). If we start with
->ret = -ENOENT, we can't tell whether all cpus executed successfully
or none has executed unless we BUG_ON() -ENOENT return from work
functions and let 0 return override -ENOENT.
Thanks.

Reimplement stop_machine using cpu_stop. As cpu stoppers are
guaranteed to be available for all online cpus,
stop_machine_create/destroy() are no longer necessary and removed.
With resource management and synchronization handled by cpu_stop, the
new implementation is much simpler. Asking the cpu_stop to execute
the stop_cpu() state machine on all online cpus with cpu hotplug
disabled is enough.
stop_machine itself doesn't need to manage any global resources
anymore, so all per-instance information is rolled into struct
stop_machine_data and the mutex and all static data variables are
removed.
The previous implementation created and destroyed RT workqueues as
necessary which made stop_machine() calls highly expensive on very
large machines. According to Dimitri Sivanich, preventing the dynamic
creation/destruction makes booting faster more than twice on very
large machines. cpu_stop resources are preallocated for all online
cpus and should have the same effect.

Currently migration_thread is serving three purposes - migration
pusher, context to execute active_load_balance() and forced context
switcher for expedited RCU synchronize_sched. All three roles are
hardcoded into migration_thread() and determining which job is
scheduled is slightly messy.
This patch kills migration_thread and replaces all three uses with
cpu_stop. The three different roles of migration_thread() are
splitted into three separate cpu_stop callbacks -
migration_cpu_stop(), active_load_balance_cpu_stop() and
synchronize_sched_expedited_cpu_stop() - and each use case now simply
asks cpu_stop to execute the callback as necessary.
synchronize_sched_expedited() was implemented with private
preallocated resources and custom multi-cpu queueing and waiting
logic, both of which are provided by cpu_stop.
synchronize_sched_expedited_count is made atomic and all other shared
resources along with the mutex are dropped.
synchronize_sched_expedited() also implemented a check to detect cases
where not all the callback got executed on their assigned cpus and
fall back to synchronize_sched(). If called with cpu hotplug blocked,
cpu_stop already guarantees that and the condition cannot happen;
otherwise, stop_machine() would break. However, this patch preserves
the paranoid check using a cpumask to record on which cpus the stopper
ran so that it can serve as a bisection point if something actually
goes wrong theree.
Because the internal execution state is no longer visible,
rcu_expedited_torture_stats() is removed.
This patch also renames cpu_stop threads to from "stopper/%d" to
"migration/%d". The names of these threads ultimately don't matter
and there's no reason to make unnecessary userland visible changes.
With this patch applied, stop_machine() and sched now share the same
resources. stop_machine() is faster without wasting any resources and
sched migration users are much cleaner.

-As before, the first four lines are similar to those for RCU.
-The last line shows the task-migration state. The first number is
--1 if synchronize_sched_expedited() is idle, -2 if in the process of
-posting wakeups to the migration kthreads, and N when waiting on CPU N.
-Each of the colon-separated fields following the "/" is a CPU:state pair.
-Valid states are "0" for idle, "1" for waiting for quiescent state,
-"2" for passed through quiescent state, and "3" when a race with a
-CPU-hotplug event forces use of the synchronize_sched() primitive.

So who guarantees busiest->active_balance_work isn't already enqueued by
some other cpu's load-balancer run?

Hmmm... maybe I'm mistaken but isn't that guaranteed by
busiest->active_balance which is protected by the rq lock?
active_load_balance_cpu_stop is scheduled iff busiest->active_balance
was changed from zero and only active_load_balance_cpu_stop() can
clear it at the end of its execution at which point the
active_balance_work is safe to reuse.
Thanks.

Ah, indeed. It wasn't obvious from looking at the patch, but when
looking at the full code it fairly easy to see.

Hmmm... it's probably worthwhile to note tho. I'll add a comment and
send out the updated patches soon.
Thanks.

The paranoid check which verifies that the cpu_stop callback is
actually called on all online cpus is completely superflous. It's
guaranteed by cpu_stop facility and if it didn't work as advertised
other things would go horribly wrong and trying to recover using
synchronize_sched() wouldn't be very meaningful.
Kill the paranoid check. Removal of this feature is done as a
separate step so that it can serve as a bisection point if something
actually goes wrong.
