Merge tag 'rcu.release.v6.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rcu/linux
Pull RCU updates from Neeraj Upadhyay: "Context tracking: - rename context tracking state related symbols and remove references to "dynticks" in various context tracking state variables and related helpers - force context_tracking_enabled_this_cpu() to be inlined to avoid leaving a noinstr section CSD lock: - enhance CSD-lock diagnostic reports - add an API to provide an indication of ongoing CSD-lock stall nocb: - update and simplify RCU nocb code to handle (de-)offloading of callbacks only for offline CPUs - fix RT throttling hrtimer being armed from offline CPU rcutorture: - remove redundant rcu_torture_ops get_gp_completed fields - add SRCU ->same_gp_state and ->get_comp_state functions - add generic test for NUM_ACTIVE_*RCU_POLL* for testing RCU and SRCU polled grace periods - add CFcommon.arch for arch-specific Kconfig options - print number of update types in rcu_torture_write_types() - add rcutree.nohz_full_patience_delay testing to the TREE07 scenario - add a stall_cpu_repeat module parameter to test repeated CPU stalls - add argument to limit number of CPUs a guest OS can use in torture.sh rcustall: - abbreviate RCU CPU stall warnings during CSD-lock stalls - Allow dump_cpu_task() to be called without disabling preemption - defer printing stall-warning backtrace when holding rcu_node lock srcu: - make SRCU gp seq wrap-around faster - add KCSAN checks for concurrent updates to ->srcu_n_exp_nodelay and ->reschedule_count which are used in heuristics governing auto-expediting of normal SRCU grace periods and grace-period-state-machine delays - mark idle SRCU-barrier callbacks to help identify stuck SRCU-barrier callback rcu tasks: - remove RCU Tasks Rude asynchronous APIs as they are no longer used - stop testing RCU Tasks Rude asynchronous APIs - fix access to non-existent percpu regions - check processor-ID assumptions during chosen CPU calculation for callback enqueuing - update description of rtp->tasks_gp_seq grace-period sequence number - add rcu_barrier_cb_is_done() to identify whether a given rcu_barrier callback is stuck - mark idle Tasks-RCU-barrier callbacks - add *torture_stats_print() functions to print detailed diagnostics for Tasks-RCU variants - capture start time of rcu_barrier_tasks*() operation to help distinguish a hung barrier operation from a long series of barrier operations refscale: - add a TINY scenario to support tests of Tiny RCU and Tiny SRCU - optimize process_durations() operation rcuscale: - dump stacks of stalled rcu_scale_writer() instances and grace-period statistics when rcu_scale_writer() stalls - mark idle RCU-barrier callbacks to identify stuck RCU-barrier callbacks - print detailed grace-period and barrier diagnostics on rcu_scale_writer() hangs for Tasks-RCU variants - warn if async module parameter is specified for RCU implementations that do not have async primitives such as RCU Tasks Rude - make all writer tasks report upon hang - tolerate repeated GFP_KERNEL failure in rcu_scale_writer() - use special allocator for rcu_scale_writer() - NULL out top-level pointers to heap memory to avoid double-free bugs on modprobe failures - maintain per-task instead of per-CPU callbacks count to avoid any issues with migration of either tasks or callbacks - constify struct ref_scale_ops Fixes: - use system_unbound_wq for kfree_rcu work to avoid disturbing isolated CPUs Misc: - warn on unexpected rcu_state.srs_done_tail state - better define "atomic" for list_replace_rcu() and hlist_replace_rcu() routines - annotate struct kvfree_rcu_bulk_data with __counted_by()" * tag 'rcu.release.v6.12' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rcu/linux: (90 commits) rcu: Defer printing stall-warning backtrace when holding rcu_node lock rcu/nocb: Remove superfluous memory barrier after bypass enqueue rcu/nocb: Conditionally wake up rcuo if not already waiting on GP rcu/nocb: Fix RT throttling hrtimer armed from offline CPU rcu/nocb: Simplify (de-)offloading state machine context_tracking: Tag context_tracking_enabled_this_cpu() __always_inline context_tracking, rcu: Rename rcu_dyntick trace event into rcu_watching rcu: Update stray documentation references to rcu_dynticks_eqs_{enter, exit}() rcu: Rename rcu_momentary_dyntick_idle() into rcu_momentary_eqs() rcu: Rename rcu_implicit_dynticks_qs() into rcu_watching_snap_recheck() rcu: Rename dyntick_save_progress_counter() into rcu_watching_snap_save() rcu: Rename struct rcu_data .exp_dynticks_snap into .exp_watching_snap rcu: Rename struct rcu_data .dynticks_snap into .watching_snap rcu: Rename rcu_dynticks_zero_in_eqs() into rcu_watching_zero_in_eqs() rcu: Rename rcu_dynticks_in_eqs_since() into rcu_watching_snap_stopped_since() rcu: Rename rcu_dynticks_in_eqs() into rcu_watching_snap_in_eqs() rcu: Rename rcu_dynticks_eqs_online() into rcu_watching_online() context_tracking, rcu: Rename rcu_dynticks_curr_cpu_in_eqs() into rcu_is_watching_curr_cpu() context_tracking, rcu: Rename rcu_dynticks_task*() into rcu_task*() refscale: Constify struct ref_scale_ops ...
