Pull RCU fixes from Frederic Weisbecker: - Fix a lock inversion between scheduler and RCU introduced in v6.2-rc4. The scenario could trigger on any user of RCU_NOCB (mostly Android but also nohz_full) - Fix PF_IDLE semantic changes introduced in v6.6-rc3 breaking some RCU-Tasks and RCU-Tasks-Trace expectations as to what exactly is an idle task. This resulted in potential spurious stalls and warnings. * tag 'rcu-fixes-v6.7' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/frederic/linux-dynticks: rcu/tasks-trace: Handle new PF_IDLE semantics rcu/tasks: Handle new PF_IDLE semantics rcu: Introduce rcu_cpu_online() rcu: Break rcu_node_0 --> &rq->__lock order

rcu: Introduce rcu_cpu_online()

2023-11-01T21:03:27Z

Export the RCU point of view as to when a CPU is considered offline (ie: when does RCU consider that a CPU is sufficiently down in the hotplug process to not feature any possible read side). This will be used by RCU-tasks whose vision of an offline CPU should reasonably match the one of RCU core.

rcu: Break rcu_node_0 --> &rq->__lock order

2023-11-01T20:39:58Z

Commit 851a723e45d1 ("sched: Always clear user_cpus_ptr in do_set_cpus_allowed()") added a kfree() call to free any user provided affinity mask, if present. It was changed later to use kfree_rcu() in commit 9a5418bc48ba ("sched/core: Use kfree_rcu() in do_set_cpus_allowed()") to avoid a circular locking dependency problem. It turns out that even kfree_rcu() isn't safe for avoiding circular locking problem. As reported by kernel test robot, the following circular locking dependency now exists: &rdp->nocb_lock --> rcu_node_0 --> &rq->__lock Solve this by breaking the rcu_node_0 --> &rq->__lock chain by moving the resched_cpu() out from under rcu_node lock.

rcu: Standardize explicit CPU-hotplug calls

2023-10-04T20:29:45Z

rcu_report_dead() and rcutree_migrate_callbacks() have their headers in rcupdate.h while those are pure rcutree calls, like the other CPU-hotplug functions. Also rcu_cpu_starting() and rcu_report_dead() have different naming conventions while they mirror each other's effects. Fix the headers and propose a naming that relates both functions and aligns with the prefix of other rcutree CPU-hotplug functions. Reviewed-by: Paul E. McKenney Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker

rcu: Conditionally build CPU-hotplug teardown callbacks

2023-10-04T20:25:28Z

Among the three CPU-hotplug teardown RCU callbacks, two of them early exit if CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n, and one is left unchanged. In any case all of them have an implementation when CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=n. Align instead with the common way to deal with CPU-hotplug teardown callbacks and provide a proper stub when they are not supported. Reviewed-by: Paul E. McKenney Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker

rcu: Assume rcu_report_dead() is always called locally

2023-10-04T15:35:56Z

rcu_report_dead() has to be called locally by the CPU that is going to exit the RCU state machine. Passing a cpu argument here is error-prone and leaves the possibility for a racy remote call. Use local access instead. Reviewed-by: Paul E. McKenney Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker

rcu: Assume IRQS disabled from rcu_report_dead()

2023-10-04T15:34:54Z

rcu_report_dead() is the last RCU word from the CPU down through the hotplug path. It is called in the idle loop right before the CPU shuts down for good. Because it removes the CPU from the grace period state machine and reports an ultimate quiescent state if necessary, no further use of RCU is allowed. Therefore it is expected that IRQs are disabled upon calling this function and are not to be re-enabled again until the CPU shuts down. Remove the IRQs disablement from that function and verify instead that it is actually called with IRQs disabled as it is expected at that special point in the idle path.
