The upper bits of the count field is used as reader count. When
sufficient number of active readers are present, the most significant
bit will be set and the count becomes negative. If the number of active
readers keep on piling up, we may eventually overflow the reader counts.
This is not likely to happen unless the number of bits reserved for
reader count is reduced because those bits are need for other purpose.
To prevent this count overflow from happening, the most significant
bit is now treated as a guard bit (RWSEM_FLAG_READFAIL). Read-lock
attempts will now fail for both the fast and slow paths whenever this
bit is set. So all those extra readers will be put to sleep in the wait
list. Wakeup will not happen until the reader count reaches 0.

Reader optimistic spinning is helpful when the reader critical section
is short and there aren't that many readers around. It makes readers
relatively more preferred than writers. When a writer times out spinning
on a reader-owned lock and set the nospinnable bits, there are two main
reasons for that.
1) The reader critical section is long, perhaps the task sleeps after
acquiring the read lock.
2) There are just too many readers contending the lock causing it to
take a while to service all of them.
In the former case, long reader critical section will impede the progress
of writers which is usually more important for system performance.
In the later case, reader optimistic spinning tends to make the reader
groups that contain readers that acquire the lock together smaller
leading to more of them. That may hurt performance in some cases. In
other words, the setting of nonspinnable bits indicates that reader
optimistic spinning may not be helpful for those workloads that cause it.
Therefore, any writers that have observed the setting of the writer
nonspinnable bit for a given rwsem after they fail to acquire the lock
via optimistic spinning will set the reader nonspinnable bit once they
acquire the write lock. Similarly, readers that observe the setting
of reader nonspinnable bit at slowpath entry will also set the reader
nonspinnable bit when they acquire the read lock via the wakeup path.
Once the reader nonspinnable bit is on, it will only be reset when
a writer is able to acquire the rwsem in the fast path or somehow a
reader or writer in the slowpath doesn't observe the nonspinable bit.
This is to discourage reader optmistic spinning on that particular
rwsem and make writers more preferred. This adaptive disabling of reader
optimistic spinning will alleviate some of the negative side effect of
this feature.
In addition, this patch tries to make readers in the spinning queue
follow the phase-fair principle after quitting optimistic spinning
by checking if another reader has somehow acquired a read lock after
this reader enters the optimistic spinning queue. If so and the rwsem
is still reader-owned, this reader is in the right read-phase and can
attempt to acquire the lock.
On a 2-socket 40-core 80-thread Skylake system, the page_fault1 test of
the will-it-scale benchmark was run with various number of threads. The
number of operations done before reader optimistic spinning patches,
this patch and after this patch were:
Threads Before rspin Before patch After patch %change

80 9508864 6739559 8107025 -29.1%/+20.3%
This patch doesn't recover all the lost performance, but it is more
than half. Given the fact that reader optimistic spinning does benefit
some workloads, this is a good compromise.
Using the rwsem locking microbenchmark with very short critical section,
this patch doesn't have too much impact on locking performance as shown
by the locking rates (kops/s) below with equal numbers of readers and
writers before and after this patch:

When running the locking microbenchmark with 40 dedicated reader and writer
threads, however, the reader performance is curtailed to favor the writer.

When the rwsem is owned by reader, writers stop optimistic spinning
simply because there is no easy way to figure out if all the readers
are actively running or not. However, there are scenarios where
the readers are unlikely to sleep and optimistic spinning can help
performance.
This patch provides a simple mechanism for spinning on a reader-owned
rwsem by a writer. It is a time threshold based spinning where the
allowable spinning time can vary from 10us to 25us depending on the
condition of the rwsem.
When the time threshold is exceeded, the nonspinnable bits will be set
in the owner field to indicate that no more optimistic spinning will
be allowed on this rwsem until it becomes writer owned again. Not even
readers is allowed to acquire the reader-locked rwsem by optimistic
spinning for fairness.
We also want a writer to acquire the lock after the readers hold the
lock for a relatively long time. In order to give preference to writers
under such a circumstance, the single RWSEM_NONSPINNABLE bit is now split
into two - one for reader and one for writer. When optimistic spinning
is disabled, both bits will be set. When the reader count drop down
to 0, the writer nonspinnable bit will be cleared to allow writers to
spin on the lock, but not the readers. When a writer acquires the lock,
it will write its own task structure pointer into sem->owner and clear
the reader nonspinnable bit in the process.
The time taken for each iteration of the reader-owned rwsem spinning
loop varies. Below are sample minimum elapsed times for 16 iterations
of the loop.
System Time for 16 Iterations
------ ----------------------
1-socket Skylake ~800ns
4-socket Broadwell ~300ns
2-socket ThunderX2 (arm64) ~250ns
When the lock cacheline is contended, we can see up to almost 10X
increase in elapsed time. So 25us will be at most 500, 1300 and 1600
iterations for each of the above systems.
With a locking microbenchmark running on 5.1 based kernel, the total
locking rates (in kops/s) on a 8-socket IvyBridge-EX system with
equal numbers of readers and writers before and after this patch were
as follows:
# of Threads Pre-patch Post-patch

32 458 7,316
64 208 520
128 168 425
240 143 474
This patch gives a big boost in performance for mixed reader/writer
workloads.
With 32 locking threads, the rwsem lock event data were:
rwsem_opt_fail=79850
rwsem_opt_nospin=5069
rwsem_opt_rlock=597484
rwsem_opt_wlock=957339
rwsem_sleep_reader=57782
rwsem_sleep_writer=55663
With 64 locking threads, the data looked like:
rwsem_opt_fail=346723
rwsem_opt_nospin=6293
rwsem_opt_rlock=1127119
rwsem_opt_wlock=1400628
rwsem_sleep_reader=308201
rwsem_sleep_writer=72281
So a lot more threads acquired the lock in the slowpath and more threads
went to sleep.

The rwsem->owner contains not just the task structure pointer, it also
holds some flags for storing the current state of the rwsem. Some of
the flags may have to be atomically updated. To reflect the new reality,
the owner is now changed to an atomic_long_t type.
New helper functions are added to properly separate out the task
structure pointer and the embedded flags.

Bit 1 of sem->owner (RWSEM_ANONYMOUSLY_OWNED) is used to designate an
anonymous owner - readers or an anonymous writer. The setting of this
anonymous bit is used as an indicator that optimistic spinning cannot
be done on this rwsem.
With the upcoming reader optimistic spinning patches, a reader-owned
rwsem can be spinned on for a limit period of time. We still need
this bit to indicate a rwsem is nonspinnable, but not setting this
bit loses its meaning that the owner is known. So rename the bit
to RWSEM_NONSPINNABLE to clarify its meaning.
This patch also fixes a DEBUG_RWSEMS_WARN_ON() bug in __up_write().

When the front of the wait queue is a reader, other readers
immediately following the first reader will also be woken up at the
same time. However, if there is a writer in between. Those readers
behind the writer will not be woken up.
Because of optimistic spinning, the lock acquisition order is not FIFO
anyway. The lock handoff mechanism will ensure that lock starvation
will not happen.
Assuming that the lock hold times of the other readers still in the
queue will be about the same as the readers that are being woken up,
there is really not much additional cost other than the additional
latency due to the wakeup of additional tasks by the waker. Therefore
all the readers up to a maximum of 256 in the queue are woken up when
the first waiter is a reader to improve reader throughput. This is
somewhat similar in concept to a phase-fair R/W lock.
With a locking microbenchmark running on 5.1 based kernel, the total
locking rates (in kops/s) on a 8-socket IvyBridge-EX system with

An RT task can do optimistic spinning only if the lock holder is
actually running. If the state of the lock holder isn't known, there
is a possibility that high priority of the RT task may block forward
progress of the lock holder if it happens to reside on the same CPU.
This will lead to deadlock. So we have to make sure that an RT task
will not spin on a reader-owned rwsem.
When the owner is temporarily set to NULL, there are two cases
where we may want to continue spinning:
1) The lock owner is in the process of releasing the lock, sem->owner
is cleared but the lock has not been released yet.
2) The lock was free and owner cleared, but another task just comes
in and acquire the lock before we try to get it. The new owner may
be a spinnable writer.
So an RT task is now made to retry one more time to see if it can
acquire the lock or continue spinning on the new owning writer.
When testing on a 8-socket IvyBridge-EX system, the one additional retry
seems to improve locking performance of RT write locking threads under
heavy contentions. The table below shows the locking rates (in kops/s)
with various write locking threads before and after the patch.

With the use of wake_q, we can do task wakeups without holding the
wait_lock. There is one exception in the rwsem code, though. It is
when the writer in the slowpath detects that there are waiters ahead
but the rwsem is not held by a writer. This can lead to a long wait_lock
hold time especially when a large number of readers are to be woken up.
Remediate this situation by releasing the wait_lock before waking
up tasks and re-acquiring it afterward. The rwsem_try_write_lock()
function is also modified to read the rwsem count directly to avoid
stale count value.

Because of writer lock stealing, it is possible that a constant
stream of incoming writers will cause a waiting writer or reader to
wait indefinitely leading to lock starvation.
This patch implements a lock handoff mechanism to disable lock stealing
and force lock handoff to the first waiter or waiters (for readers)
in the queue after at least a 4ms waiting period unless it is a RT
writer task which doesn't need to wait. The waiting period is used to
avoid discouraging lock stealing too much to affect performance.
The setting and clearing of the handoff bit is serialized by the
wait_lock. So racing is not possible.
A rwsem microbenchmark was run for 5 seconds on a 2-socket 40-core
80-thread Skylake system with a v5.1 based kernel and 240 write_lock
threads with 5us sleep critical section.
Before the patch, the min/mean/max numbers of locking operations for
the locking threads were 1/7,792/173,696. After the patch, the figures
became 5,842/6,542/7,458. It can be seen that the rwsem became much
more fair, though there was a drop of about 16% in the mean locking
operations done which was a tradeoff of having better fairness.
Making the waiter set the handoff bit right after the first wakeup can
impact performance especially with a mixed reader/writer workload. With
the same microbenchmark with short critical section and equal number of
reader and writer threads (40/40), the reader/writer locking operation
counts with the current patch were:
40 readers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 1,793/1,794/1,796
40 writers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 1,793/34,956/86,081
By making waiter set handoff bit immediately after wakeup:
40 readers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 43/44/46
40 writers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 43/1,263/3,191

After merging all the relevant rwsem code into one single file, there
are a number of optimizations and cleanups that can be done:
1) Remove all the EXPORT_SYMBOL() calls for functions that are not
accessed elsewhere.
2) Remove all the __visible tags as none of the functions will be
called from assembly code anymore.
3) Make all the internal functions static.
4) Remove some unneeded blank lines.
5) Remove the intermediate rwsem_down_{read|write}_failed*() functions
and rename __rwsem_down_{read|write}_failed_common() to
rwsem_down_{read|write}_slowpath().
6) Remove "__" prefix of __rwsem_mark_wake().
7) Use atomic_long_try_cmpxchg_acquire() as much as possible.
8) Remove the rwsem_rtrylock and rwsem_wtrylock lock events as they

That enables the compiler to do better optimization and reduce code
size. The text+data size of rwsem.o on an x86-64 machine with gcc8 was
reduced from 10237 bytes to 5030 bytes with this change.

Now we only have one implementation of rwsem. Even though we still use
xadd to handle reader locking, we use cmpxchg for writer instead. So
the filename rwsem-xadd.c is not strictly correct. Also no one outside
of the rwsem code need to know the internal implementation other than
function prototypes for two internal functions that are called directly
from percpu-rwsem.c.
So the rwsem-xadd.c and rwsem.h files are now merged into rwsem.c in
the following order:
<upper part of rwsem.h>
<rwsem-xadd.c>
<lower part of rwsem.h>
<rwsem.c>
The rwsem.h file now contains only 2 function declarations for
__up_read() and __down_read().
This is a code relocation patch with no code change at all except
making __up_read() and __down_read() non-static functions so they
can be used by percpu-rwsem.c.

The current way of using various reader, writer and waiting biases
in the rwsem code are confusing and hard to understand. I have to
reread the rwsem count guide in the rwsem-xadd.c file from time to
time to remind myself how this whole thing works. It also makes the
rwsem code harder to be optimized.
To make rwsem more sane, a new locking scheme similar to the one in
qrwlock is now being used. The atomic long count has the following
bit definitions:
Bit 0 - writer locked bit
Bit 1 - waiters present bit
Bits 2-7 - reserved for future extension
Bits 8-X - reader count (24/56 bits)
The cmpxchg instruction is now used to acquire the write lock. The read
lock is still acquired with xadd instruction, so there is no change here.
This scheme will allow up to 16M/64P active readers which should be
more than enough. We can always use some more reserved bits if necessary.
With that change, we can deterministically know if a rwsem has been
write-locked. Looking at the count alone, however, one cannot determine
for certain if a rwsem is owned by readers or not as the readers that
set the reader count bits may be in the process of backing out. So we
still need the reader-owned bit in the owner field to be sure.
With a locking microbenchmark running on 5.1 based kernel, the total
locking rates (in kops/s) of the benchmark on a 8-socket 120-core
IvyBridge-EX system before and after the patch were as follows:

are run-to-run variations in performance. Runs with higher variances

After the following commit:
59aabfc7e9 ("locking/rwsem: Reduce spinlock contention in wakeup after up_read()/up_write()")
the rwsem_wake() forgoes doing a wakeup if the wait_lock cannot be directly
acquired and an optimistic spinning locker is present. This can help performance
by avoiding spinning on the wait_lock when it is contended.
With the later commit:
133e89ef5e ("locking/rwsem: Enable lockless waiter wakeup(s)")
the performance advantage of the above optimization diminishes as the average
wait_lock hold time become much shorter.
With a later patch that supports rwsem lock handoff, we can no
longer relies on the fact that the presence of an optimistic spinning
locker will ensure that the lock will be acquired by a task soon and
rwsem_wake() will be called later on to wake up waiters. This can lead
to missed wakeup and application hang.
So the original 59aabfc7e9 commit has to be reverted.

The owner field in the rw_semaphore structure is used primarily for
optimistic spinning. However, identifying the rwsem owner can also be
helpful in debugging as well as tracing locking related issues when
analyzing crash dump. The owner field may also store state information
that can be important to the operation of the rwsem.
So the owner field is now made a permanent member of the rw_semaphore
structure irrespective of CONFIG_RWSEM_SPIN_ON_OWNER.

If the architecture supports the batching of jump label updates, use it!
An easy way to see the benefits of this patch is switching the
schedstats on and off. For instance:
-------------------------- %< ----------------------------
#!/bin/sh
while [ true ]; do
sysctl -w kernel.sched_schedstats=1
sleep 2
sysctl -w kernel.sched_schedstats=0
sleep 2
done
-------------------------- >% ----------------------------
while watching the IPI count:
-------------------------- %< ----------------------------
# watch -n1 "cat /proc/interrupts | grep Function"
-------------------------- >% ----------------------------
With the current mode, it is possible to see +- 168 IPIs each 2 seconds,
while with this patch the number of IPIs goes to 3 each 2 seconds.
Regarding the performance impact of this patch set, I made two measurements:
The time to update a key (the task that is causing the change)
The time to run the int3 handler (the side effect on a thread that
hits the code being changed)
The schedstats static key was chosen as the key to being switched on and off.
The reason being is that it is used in more than 56 places, in a hot path. The
change in the schedstats static key will be done with the following command:
while [ true ]; do
sysctl -w kernel.sched_schedstats=1
usleep 500000
sysctl -w kernel.sched_schedstats=0
usleep 500000
done
In this way, they key will be updated twice per second. To force the hit of the
int3 handler, the system will also run a kernel compilation with two jobs per
CPU. The test machine is a two nodes/24 CPUs box with an Intel Xeon processor
@2.27GHz.
Regarding the update part, on average, the regular kernel takes 57 ms to update
the schedstats key, while the kernel with the batch updates takes just 1.4 ms
on average. Although it seems to be too good to be true, it makes sense: the
schedstats key is used in 56 places, so it was expected that it would take
around 56 times to update the keys with the current implementation, as the
IPIs are the most expensive part of the update.
Regarding the int3 handler, the non-batch handler takes 45 ns on average, while
the batch version takes around 180 ns. At first glance, it seems to be a high
value. But it is not, considering that it is doing 56 updates, rather than one!
It is taking four times more, only. This gain is possible because the patch
uses a binary search in the vector: log2(56)=5.8. So, it was expected to have
an overhead within four times.
(voice of tv propaganda) But, that is not all! As the int3 handler keeps on for
a shorter period (because the update part is on for a shorter time), the number
of hits in the int3 handler decreased by 10%.
The question then is: Is it worth paying the price of "135 ns" more in the int3
handler?
Considering that, in this test case, we are saving the handling of 53 IPIs,
that takes more than these 135 ns, it seems to be a meager price to be paid.
Moreover, the test case was forcing the hit of the int3, in practice, it
does not take that often. While the IPI takes place on all CPUs, hitting
the int3 handler or not!
For instance, in an isolated CPU with a process running in user-space
(nohz_full use-case), the chances of hitting the int3 handler is barely zero,
while there is no way to avoid the IPIs. By bounding the IPIs, we are improving
a lot this scenario.

In the batching mode, all the entries of a given key are updated at once.
During the update of a key, a hit in the int3 handler will check if the
hitting code address belongs to one of these keys.
To optimize the search of a given code in the vector of entries being
updated, a binary search is used. The binary search relies on the order
of the entries of a key by its code. Hence the keys need to be sorted
by the code too, so sort the entries of a given key by the code.

Logan noticed that devm_memremap_pages_release() kills the percpu_ref
drops all the page references that were acquired at init and then
immediately proceeds to unplug, arch_remove_memory(), the backing pages
for the pagemap. If for some reason device shutdown actually collides
with a busy / elevated-ref-count page then arch_remove_memory() should
be deferred until after that reference is dropped.
As it stands the "wait for last page ref drop" happens *after*
devm_memremap_pages_release() returns, which is obviously too late and
can lead to crashes.
Fix this situation by assigning the responsibility to wait for the
percpu_ref to go idle to devm_memremap_pages() with a new ->cleanup()
callback. Implement the new cleanup callback for all
devm_memremap_pages() users: pmem, devdax, hmm, and p2pdma.

In the case that a process is constrained by taskset(1) (i.e.
sched_setaffinity(2)) to a subset of available cpus, and all of those are
subsequently offlined, the scheduler will set tsk->cpus_allowed to
the current value of task_cs(tsk)->effective_cpus.
This is done via a call to do_set_cpus_allowed() in the context of
cpuset_cpus_allowed_fallback() made by the scheduler when this case is
detected. This is the only call made to cpuset_cpus_allowed_fallback()
in the latest mainline kernel.
However, this is not sane behavior.
I will demonstrate this on a system running the latest upstream kernel
with the following initial configuration:
# grep -i cpu /proc/$$/status
Cpus_allowed: ffffffff,fffffff
Cpus_allowed_list: 0-63
(Where cpus 32-63 are provided via smt.)
If we limit our current shell process to cpu2 only and then offline it
and reonline it:
# taskset -p 4 $$
pid 2272's current affinity mask: ffffffffffffffff
pid 2272's new affinity mask: 4
# echo off > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
# dmesg | tail -3
[ 2195.866089] process 2272 (bash) no longer affine to cpu2
[ 2195.872700] IRQ 114: no longer affine to CPU2
[ 2195.879128] smpboot: CPU 2 is now offline
# echo on > /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu2/online
# dmesg | tail -1
[ 2617.043572] smpboot: Booting Node 0 Processor 2 APIC 0x4
We see that our current process now has an affinity mask containing
every cpu available on the system _except_ the one we originally
constrained it to:
# grep -i cpu /proc/$$/status
Cpus_allowed: ffffffff,fffffffb
Cpus_allowed_list: 0-1,3-63
This is not sane behavior, as the scheduler can now not only place the
process on previously forbidden cpus, it can't even schedule it on
the cpu it was originally constrained to!
Other cases result in even more exotic affinity masks. Take for instance
a process with an affinity mask containing only cpus provided by smt at
the moment that smt is toggled, in a configuration such as the following:
# taskset -p f000000000 $$
# grep -i cpu /proc/$$/status
Cpus_allowed: 000000f0,00000000
Cpus_allowed_list: 36-39
A double toggle of smt results in the following behavior:
# echo off > /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control
# echo on > /sys/devices/system/cpu/smt/control
# grep -i cpus /proc/$$/status
Cpus_allowed: ffffff00,ffffffff
Cpus_allowed_list: 0-31,40-63
This is even less sane than the previous case, as the new affinity mask
excludes all smt-provided cpus with ids less than those that were
previously in the affinity mask, as well as those that were actually in
the mask.
With this patch applied, both of these cases end in the following state:
# grep -i cpu /proc/$$/status
Cpus_allowed: ffffffff,ffffffff
Cpus_allowed_list: 0-63
The original policy is discarded. Though not ideal, it is the simplest way
to restore sanity to this fallback case without reinventing the cpuset
wheel that rolls down the kernel just fine in cgroup v2. A user who wishes
for the previous affinity mask to be restored in this fallback case can use
that mechanism instead.
This patch modifies scheduler behavior by instead resetting the mask to
task_cs(tsk)->cpus_allowed by default, and cpu_possible mask in legacy
mode. I tested the cases above on both modes.
Note that the scheduler uses this fallback mechanism if and only if
_every_ other valid avenue has been traveled, and it is the last resort
before calling BUG().

While adding handling for dying task group leaders c03cd7738a
("cgroup: Include dying leaders with live threads in PROCS

There's some discussion on how to do this the best, and Tejun prefers
that BFQ just create the file itself instead of having cgroups support
a symlink feature.
Hence revert commit 54b7b868e8 and 19e9da9e86 for 5.2, and this
can be done properly for 5.3.

Another round of SPDX header file fixes for 5.2-rc4
These are all more "GPL-2.0-or-later" or "GPL-2.0-only" tags being
added, based on the text in the files. We are slowly chipping away at
the 700+ different ways people tried to write the license text. All of
these were reviewed on the spdx mailing list by a number of different
people.
We now have over 60% of the kernel files covered with SPDX tags:
$ ./scripts/spdxcheck.py -v 2>&1 | grep Files
Files checked: 64533
Files with SPDX: 40392
Files with errors: 0

The most "notable" one here is the kernel headers in proc^Wsysfs fixes.
Those changes move the header file info into sysfs and fixes the build
issues that you reported.
Other than that, a bunch of small habanalabs driver fixes, some fpga
