aa23c6fbc5 rcutorture: Add early boot self tests
Add early boot self tests for RCU under CONFIG_PROVE_RCU.

Currently the only test is adding a dummy callback which increments a counter
which we then later verify after calling rcu_barrier*().

c3377c2da6 rcu: Remove "cpu" argument to rcu_check_callbacks()
The "cpu" argument was kept around on the off-chance that RCU might
offload scheduler-clock interrupts.  However, this offload approach
has been replaced by NO_HZ_FULL, which offloads -all- RCU processing
from qualifying CPUs.  It is therefore time to remove the "cpu" argument
to rcu_check_callbacks(), which this commit does.

284a8c93af rcu: Per-CPU operation cleanups to rcu_*_qs() functions
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.

8315f42295 rcu: Add call_rcu_tasks()
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.

ade9862470 rcu: Make TINY_RCU tinier by putting error checks under #ifdef
The rcu_idle_enter_common() and rcu_idle_exit_common() functions contain
error checks that have to the best of my knowledge have never triggered
over the past several years.  These are nevertheless valuable when
creating new architectures or doing other low-level changes, so the
checks should not be deleted.  This commit instead places these checks
under #ifdef CONFIG_RCU_TRACE so that they are executed only when
specifically requested.

The savings are significant:

This amounts to 470 bytes, or 18% of the original.

Switched from #ifdef to IS_ENABLED() on Josh Triplett's advice.

5cb5c6e18f rcu: Ensure kernel/rcu/rcu.h can be sourced/used stand-alone
The kbuild test bot uncovered an implicit dependence on the
trace header being present before rcu.h in ia64 allmodconfig
that looks like this:

In file included from kernel/ksysfs.c:22:0:
kernel/rcu/rcu.h: In function '__rcu_reclaim':
kernel/rcu/rcu.h:107:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'trace_rcu_invoke_kfree_callback' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
kernel/rcu/rcu.h:112:3: error: implicit declaration of function 'trace_rcu_invoke_callback' [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]
cc1: some warnings being treated as errors

Looking at other rcu.h users, we can find that they all
were sourcing the trace header in advance of rcu.h itself,
as seen in the context of this diff.  There were also some
inconsistencies as to whether it was or wasn't sourced based
on the parent tracing Kconfig.

Rather than "fix" it at each use site, and have inconsistent
use based on whether "#ifdef CONFIG_RCU_TRACE" was used or not,
lets just source the trace header just once, in the actual consumer
of it, which is rcu.h itself.  We include it unconditionally, as
build testing shows us that is a hard requirement for some files.

87de1cfdc5 rcu: Stop tracking FSF's postal address
All of the RCU source files have the usual GPL header, which contains a
long-obsolete postal address for FSF.  To avoid the need to track the
FSF office's movements, this commit substitutes the URL where GPL may
be found.

b29c8306a3 This batch of changes is mostly clean ups and small bug fixes.
The only real feature that was added this release is from Namhyung Kim,
 who introduced "set_graph_notrace" filter that lets you run the function
 graph tracer and not trace particular functions and their call chain.
 
 Tom Zanussi added some updates to the ftrace multibuffer tracing that
 made it more consistent with the top level tracing.
 
 One of the fixes for perf function tracing required an API change in
 RCU; the addition of "rcu_is_watching()". As Paul McKenney is pushing
 that change in this release too, he gave me a branch that included
 all the changes to get that working, and I pulled that into my tree
 in order to complete the perf function tracing fix.
