90040c9e30 rcu: Remove *_SLOW_* Kconfig options
The RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT_DELAY,
RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_PREINIT_DELAY, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT,
RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_INIT_DELAY, RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_CLEANUP,
and RCU_TORTURE_TEST_SLOW_CLEANUP_DELAY Kconfig options are only
useful for torture testing, and there are the rcutree.gp_cleanup_delay,
rcutree.gp_init_delay, and rcutree.gp_preinit_delay kernel boot parameters
that rcutorture can use instead.  The effect of these parameters is to
artificially slow down grace period initialization and cleanup in order
to make some types of race conditions happen more often.

This commit therefore simplifies Tree RCU a bit by removing the Kconfig
options and adding the corresponding kernel parameters to rcutorture's
.boot files instead.  However, this commit also leaves out the kernel
parameters for TREE02, TREE04, and TREE07 in order to have about the
same number of tests slowed as not slowed.  TREE01, TREE03, TREE05,
and TREE06 are slowed, and the rest are not slowed.

a3883df393 srcu: Use rnp->lock wrappers to replace explicit memory barriers
This commit uses TREE RCU's rnp->lock wrappers to replace a few explicit
memory barriers.  This change also has the advantage of making SRCU's
memory-ordering properties be implemented in roughly the same way as they
are in Tree RCU.

bf32c76540 rcu: Convert rnp->lock wrappers to macros for SRCU use
Use of smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() would allow SRCU to omit a full
memory barrier during callback execution, so this commit converts
raw_spin_lock_rcu_node() from inline functions to type-generic macros
to allow them to handle locks in srcu_node structures as well as
rcu_node structures.

5f192ab027 rcu: Refactor #includes from include/linux/rcupdate.h
The list of #includes from include/linux/rcupdate.h has grown quite
a bit, so it is time to trim it.  This commit moves the #include
of include/linux/ktime.h to include/linux/rcutiny.h, along with the
Tiny-RCU-only function that was the only thing needing ktimem.h.  It then
reconstructs the files included into include/linux/ktime.h based on what
is actually needed, with significant help from the 0day Test Robot.

This single change reduces the .i file footprint from rcupdate.h from
9018 lines to 7101 lines.

0cb5133ab5 bcm47xx: Fix build regression
Commit 0bc2d534708b ("rcu: Refactor #includes from include/linux/rcupdate.h")
caused a build regression in an MTD partition driver:

In file included from drivers/mtd/bcm47xxpart.c:12:0:
include/linux/bcm47xx_nvram.h: In function 'bcm47xx_nvram_init_from_mem':
include/linux/bcm47xx_nvram.h:27:10: error: 'ENOTSUPP' undeclared (first use in this function)

The rcupdate.h file has no particular need for linux/errno.h, so this
commit includes linux/errno.h into bcm47xx_nvram.h.

681fbec881 lockdep: Use consistent printing primitives
Commit a5dd63efda ("lockdep: Use "WARNING" tag on lockdep splats")
substituted pr_warn() for printk() in places called out by Dmitry Vyukov.
However, this resulted in an ugly mix of pr_warn() and printk().  This
commit therefore changes printk() to pr_warn() or pr_cont(), depending
on the absence or presence of KERN_CONT.  This is done in all functions
that had printk() changed to pr_warn() by the aforementioned commit.

2464dd940e srcu: Apply trivial callback lists to shrink Tiny SRCU
The rcu_segcblist structure provides quite a bit of functionality, and
Tiny SRCU needs almost none of it.  So this commit replaces Tiny SRCU's
uses of rcu_segcblist with a simple singly linked list with tail pointer.
This change significantly reduces Tiny SRCU's memory footprint, more
than making up for the growth caused by the creation of rcu_segcblist.c

5a0465e17a srcu: Shrink srcu.h by moving docbook and private function
The call_srcu() docbook entry is currently in include/linux/srcu.h,
which causes needless processing for each include point.  This commit
therefore moves this entry to kernel/rcu/srcutree.c, which the compiler
reads only once.  In addition, the srcu_batches_completed() function is
used only within RCU and its torture-test suites.  This commit therefore
also moves this function's declaration from include/linux/srcutiny.h,
include/linux/srcutree.h, and include/linux/srcuclassic.h to
kernel/rcu/rcu.h.

c350c00829 srcu: Prevent sdp->srcu_gp_seq_needed counter wrap
If a given CPU never happens to ever start an SRCU grace period, the
grace-period sequence counter might wrap.  If this CPU were to decide to
finally start a grace period, the state of its sdp->srcu_gp_seq_needed
might make it appear that it has already requested this grace period,
which would prevent starting the grace period.  If no other CPU ever started
a grace period again, this would look like a grace-period hang.  Even
if some other CPU took pity and started the needed grace period, the
leaf rcu_node structure's ->srcu_data_have_cbs field won't have record
of the fact that this CPU has a callback pending, which would look like
a very localized grace-period hang.

This might seem very unlikely, but SRCU grace periods can take less than
a microsecond on small systems, which means that overflow can happen
in much less than an hour on a 32-bit embedded system.  And embedded
systems are especially likely to have long-term idle CPUs.  Therefore,
it makes sense to prevent this scenario from happening.

This commit therefore scans each srcu_data structure occasionally,
with frequency controlled by the srcutree.counter_wrap_check kernel
boot parameter.  This parameter can be set to something like 255
in order to exercise the counter-wrap-prevention code.

68ab0b4263 rcu: Make synchronize_rcu_mult() check for duplicates
Currently, doing synchronize_rcu_mult(call_rcu, call_rcu) might
(or might not) wait for two RCU grace periods.  One approach is
of course "don't do that!", but in CONFIG_PREEMPT=n kernels,
synchronize_rcu_mult(call_rcu, call_rcu_sched) does exactly that.
This results in an ugly #ifdef in sched_cpu_deactivate().

This commit therefore makes __wait_rcu_gp() check for duplicates,
which in turn allows duplicates to be passed to synchronize_rcu_mult()
without risk of waiting twice on the same type of grace period.

commits 2da4b2a7fd ("srcu: Expedite first synchronize_srcu() when idle")
and 22607d66bb ("srcu: Specify auto-expedite holdoff time").

5d9853f3cf rcutorture: Add "git diff" output to testid.txt file
Currently, when running from a git archive, the testid.txt file contains
only the branch name, the output of "git status", and the SHA-1 of
the current HEAD.  This is useful, but does not uniquely identify the
source code that was built.  This commit therefore adds the output of
"git diff HEAD", which means that if two testid.txt files compare equal,
they correspond to exactly the same source code.  Give or take the
possibility of SHA-1 collisions, that is.  ;-)

820687a7b9 rcuperf: Add writer_holdoff boot parameter
This commit adds a writer_holdoff boot parameter to rcuperf, which is
intended to be used to test Tree SRCU's auto-expediting.  This
boot parameter is in microseconds, and defaults to zero (that is,
disabled).  Set it to a bit larger than srcutree.exp_holdoff,
keeping the nanosecond/microsecond conversion, to force Tree SRCU
to auto-expedite more aggressively.

This commit also adds documentation for this parameter, and fixes some
alphabetization while in the neighborhood.

b562b85c3a srcu-cbmc: Use /usr/bin/awk instead of /bin/awk
Most OS distribution have awk in /usr/bin not in /bin
Without this patch, kernel-devsrc fails to build as
runtime dependency for srcu-cbmc script /bin/awk is
not found.

492b95e597 rcuperf: Set more user-friendly defaults
Common-case use of rcuperf must set rcuperf.nreaders=0 and if not built
as a module, rcuperf.shutdown.  This commit therefore sets the default
for rcuperf.nreaders to zero and sets the default for rcuperf.shutdown
to zero if rcuperf is built as a module and to one otherwise.

1f4f6da1c8 srcu: Make Classic and Tree SRCU announce themselves at bootup
Currently, the only way to tell whether a given kernel is running
Classic, Tiny, or Tree SRCU is to look at the .config file, which
can easily be lost or associated with the wrong kernel.  This commit
therefore has Classic and Tree SRCU identify themselves at boot time.
