Pull RCU and LKMM changes from Paul E. McKenney:
- Documentation updates.
- Miscellaneous fixes.
- Dynamic tick (nohz) updates, perhaps most notably changes to
force the tick on when needed due to lengthy in-kernel execution
on CPUs on which RCU is waiting.
- Replace rcu_swap_protected() with rcu_prepace_pointer().
- Torture-test updates.
- Linux-kernel memory consistency model updates.

Although the rcu_swap_protected() macro follows the example of
swap(), the interactions with RCU make its update of its argument
somewhat counter-intuitive. This commit therefore introduces
an rcu_replace_pointer() that returns the old value of the RCU
pointer instead of doing the argument update. Once all the uses of
rcu_swap_protected() are updated to instead use rcu_replace_pointer(),
rcu_swap_protected() will be removed.

The RCU-specific resched_cpu() function sends a resched IPI to the
specified CPU, which can be used to force the tick on for a given
nohz_full CPU. This is needed when this nohz_full CPU is looping in the
kernel while blocking the current grace period. However, for the tick
to actually be forced on in all cases, that CPU's rcu_data structure's
->rcu_urgent_qs flag must be set beforehand. This commit therefore
causes rcu_implicit_dynticks_qs() to set this flag prior to invoking
resched_cpu() on a holdout nohz_full CPU.

When gfs2 was converted to use fs_context, the initialisation of the
mount args structure to the currently active args was lost with the
removal of gfs2_remount_fs(), so the checks of the new args on remount
became checks against the default values instead of the current ones.
This caused unexpected remount behaviour and test failures (xfstests
generic/294, generic/306 and generic/452).
Reinstate the args initialisation, this time in gfs2_init_fs_context()
and conditional upon fc->purpose, as that's the only time we get control
before the mount args are parsed in the remount process.

There are 4 RCU articles that are written on html format.
The way they are, they can't be part of the Linux Kernel
documentation body nor share the styles and pdf output.
So, convert them to ReST format.
This way, make htmldocs and make pdfdocs will produce a
documentation output that will be like the original ones, but
will be part of the Linux Kernel documentation body.
Part of the conversion was done with the help of pandoc, but
the result had some broken things that had to be manually
fixed.
Following are manual changes Mauro made when doing the automatic conversion:

If a nohz_full CPU is idle or executing in userspace, it makes good sense
to keep it out of RCU core processing. After all, the RCU grace-period
kthread can see its quiescent states and all of its callbacks are
offloaded, so there is nothing for RCU core processing to do.
However, if a nohz_full CPU is executing in kernel space, the RCU
grace-period kthread cannot do anything for it, so such a CPU must report
its own quiescent states. This commit therefore makes nohz_full CPUs
skip RCU core processing only if the scheduler-clock interrupt caught
them in idle or in userspace.
Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
Commit 671a63517c ("rcu: Avoid unnecessary softirq when system
is idle") fixed a bug that could result in an indefinite number of
unnecessary invocations of the RCU_SOFTIRQ handler at the trailing edge
of a scheduler-clock interrupt. However, the fix introduced off-CPU
stores to ->core_needs_qs. These writes did not conflict with the
on-CPU stores because the CPU's leaf rcu_node structure's ->lock was
held across all such stores. However, the loads from ->core_needs_qs
were not promoted to READ_ONCE() and, worse yet, the code loading from
->core_needs_qs was written assuming that it was only ever updated by
the corresponding CPU. So operation has been robust, but only by luck.
This situation is therefore an accident waiting to happen.
This commit therefore takes a different approach. Instead of clearing
->core_needs_qs from the grace-period kthread's force-quiescent-state
processing, it modifies the rcu_pending() function to suppress the
rcu_sched_clock_irq() function's call to invoke_rcu_core() if there is no
grace period in progress. This avoids the infinite needless RCU_SOFTIRQ
handlers while still keeping all accesses to ->core_needs_qs local to
the corresponding CPU.

In some cases, tracing shows that need_heavy_qs is still set even though
urgent_qs was cleared upon reporting of a quiescent state. One such
case is when the softirq reports that a CPU has passed quiescent state.
Commit 671a63517c ("rcu: Avoid unnecessary softirq when system is
idle") fixed a bug where core_needs_qs was not being cleared. In order
to avoid running into similar situations with the urgent-grace-period
flags, this commit causes rcu_disable_urgency_upon_qs(), previously
rcu_disable_tick_upon_qs(), to clear the urgency hints, ->rcu_urgent_qs
and ->rcu_need_heavy_qs. Note that it is possible for CPUs to go
offline with these urgency hints still set. This is handled because
rcu_disable_urgency_upon_qs() is also invoked during the online process.
Because these hints can be cleared both by the corresponding CPU and by
the grace-period kthread, this commit also adds a number of READ_ONCE()
and WRITE_ONCE() calls.
Tested overnight with rcutorture running for 60 minutes on all
configurations of RCU.

There is interrupt-exit code that forces on the tick for nohz_full CPUs
failing to respond to the current grace period in a timely fashion.
However, this code must compare ->dynticks_nmi_nesting to the value 2
in the interrupt-exit fastpath. This commit therefore moves this code
to the interrupt-entry fastpath, where a lighter-weight comparison to
zero may be used.

CPUs running for long time periods in the kernel in nohz_full mode
might leave the scheduling-clock interrupt disabled for then full
duration of their in-kernel execution. This can (among other things)
delay grace periods. This commit therefore forces the tick back on
for any nohz_full CPU that is failing to pass through a quiescent state
upon return from interrupt, which the resched_cpu() will induce.

vringh: fix copy direction of vringh_iov_push_kern()
vsock/virtio: remove unused 'work' field from 'struct virtio_vsock_pkt'
virtio_ring: fix stalls for packed rings
We want to copy from iov to buf, so the direction was wrong.
Note: no real user for the helper, but it will be used by future
features.

The 'work' field was introduced with commit 06a8fc7836
("VSOCK: Introduce virtio_vsock_common.ko")
but it is never used in the code, so we can remove it to save
memory allocated in the per-packet 'struct virtio_vsock_pkt'

When VIRTIO_F_RING_EVENT_IDX is negotiated, virtio devices can
use virtqueue_enable_cb_delayed_packed to reduce the number of device
interrupts. At the moment, this is the case for virtio-net when the
napi_tx module parameter is set to false.
In this case, the virtio driver selects an event offset and expects that
the device will send a notification when rolling over the event offset
in the ring. However, if this roll-over happens before the event
suppression structure update, the notification won't be sent. To address
this race condition the driver needs to check wether the device rolled
over the offset after updating the event suppression structure.
With VIRTIO_F_RING_PACKED, the virtio driver did this by reading the
flags field of the descriptor at the specified offset.
Unfortunately, checking at the event offset isn't reliable: if
descriptors are chained (e.g. when INDIRECT is off) not all descriptors
are overwritten by the device, so it's possible that the device skipped
the specific descriptor driver is checking when writing out used
descriptors. If this happens, the driver won't detect the race condition
and will incorrectly expect the device to send a notification.
For virtio-net, the result will be a TX queue stall, with the
transmission getting blocked forever.
With the packed ring, it isn't easy to find a location which is
guaranteed to change upon the roll-over, except the next device
descriptor, as described in the spec:
Writes of device and driver descriptors can generally be
reordered, but each side (driver and device) are only required to
poll (or test) a single location in memory: the next device descriptor after
the one they processed previously, in circular order.
while this might be sub-optimal, let's do exactly this for now.
