The following pattern occurs 5 times in kernel drivers:
lockdep_register_key(key);
__mutex_init(mutex, name, key);
In several cases the 'name' argument matches #mutex. Hence, introduce
the mutex_init_with_key() macro. This macro derives the 'name' argument
from the 'mutex' argument.

With CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT disabled __mutex_init() is a function. With
CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT enabled, __mutex_init() is a macro. I assume this is why
mutex_init() is defined twice as exactly the same macro.
Prepare for introducing a new macro for mutex initialization by combining
the two identical mutex_init() definitions into a single definition. This
patch does not change any functionality because the C preprocessor expands
macros when it encounters the macro name and not when a macro definition
is encountered. See also commit bb630f9f7a7d ("locking/rtmutex: Add mutex
variant for RT").

Using of devm API leads to a certain order of releasing resources.
So all dependent resources which are not devm-wrapped should be deleted
with respect to devm-release order. Mutex is one of such objects that
often is bound to other resources and has no own devm wrapping.
Since mutex_destroy() actually does nothing in non-debug builds
frequently calling mutex_destroy() is just ignored which is safe for now
but wrong formally and can lead to a problem if mutex_destroy() will be
extended so introduce devm_mutex_init().

CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES and CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT are mutually exclusive. They
can't be both set at the same time. Move up the mutex_destroy() function
declaration and the __DEBUG_MUTEX_INITIALIZER() macro above the "#ifndef
CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT" section to eliminate duplicated mutex_destroy()
declaration.
Also remove the duplicated mutex_trylock() function declaration in the
CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT section.

Adds:
- DEFINE_GUARD_COND() / DEFINE_LOCK_GUARD_1_COND() to extend existing
guards with conditional lock primitives, eg. mutex_trylock(),
mutex_lock_interruptible().
nb. both primitives allow NULL 'locks', which cause the lock to
fail (obviously).
- extends scoped_guard() to not take the body when the the
conditional guard 'fails'. eg.
scoped_guard (mutex_intr, &task->signal_cred_guard_mutex) {
...
}
will only execute the body when the mutex is held.
- provides scoped_cond_guard(name, fail, args...); which extends
scoped_guard() to do fail when the lock-acquire fails.

By using lockdep_assert_*() from seqlock.h, the spaghetti monster
attacked.
Attack back by reducing seqlock.h dependencies from two key high level headers:
- <linux/seqlock.h>: -Remove <linux/ww_mutex.h>
- <linux/time.h>: -Remove <linux/seqlock.h>
- <linux/sched.h>: +Add <linux/seqlock.h>
The price was to add it to sched.h ...
Core header fallout, we add direct header dependencies instead of gaining them
parasitically from higher level headers:
- <linux/dynamic_queue_limits.h>: +Add <asm/bug.h>
- <linux/hrtimer.h>: +Add <linux/seqlock.h>
- <linux/ktime.h>: +Add <asm/bug.h>
- <linux/lockdep.h>: +Add <linux/smp.h>
- <linux/sched.h>: +Add <linux/seqlock.h>
- <linux/videodev2.h>: +Add <linux/kernel.h>
Arch headers fallout:
- PARISC: <asm/timex.h>: +Add <asm/special_insns.h>
- SH: <asm/io.h>: +Add <asm/page.h>
- SPARC: <asm/timer_64.h>: +Add <uapi/asm/asi.h>

Extend lockdep to validate lock wait-type context.
The current wait-types are:
LD_WAIT_FREE, /* wait free, rcu etc.. */
LD_WAIT_SPIN, /* spin loops, raw_spinlock_t etc.. */
LD_WAIT_CONFIG, /* CONFIG_PREEMPT_LOCK, spinlock_t etc.. */
LD_WAIT_SLEEP, /* sleeping locks, mutex_t etc.. */
Where lockdep validates that the current lock (the one being acquired)
fits in the current wait-context (as generated by the held stack).
This ensures that there is no attempt to acquire mutexes while holding
spinlocks, to acquire spinlocks while holding raw_spinlocks and so on. In
other words, its a more fancy might_sleep().
Obviously RCU made the entire ordeal more complex than a simple single
value test because RCU can be acquired in (pretty much) any context and
while it presents a context to nested locks it is not the same as it
got acquired in.
Therefore its necessary to split the wait_type into two values, one
representing the acquire (outer) and one representing the nested context
(inner). For most 'normal' locks these two are the same.
[ To make static initialization easier we have the rule that:
.outer == INV means .outer == .inner; because INV == 0. ]
It further means that its required to find the minimal .inner of the held
stack to compare against the outer of the new lock; because while 'normal'
RCU presents a CONFIG type to nested locks, if it is taken while already
holding a SPIN type it obviously doesn't relax the rules.
Below is an example output generated by the trivial test code:
raw_spin_lock(&foo);
spin_lock(&bar);
spin_unlock(&bar);
raw_spin_unlock(&foo);
[ BUG: Invalid wait context ]
-----------------------------
swapper/0/1 is trying to lock:
ffffc90000013f20 (&bar){....}-{3:3}, at: kernel_init+0xdb/0x187
other info that might help us debug this:
1 lock held by swapper/0/1:
#0: ffffc90000013ee0 (&foo){+.+.}-{2:2}, at: kernel_init+0xd1/0x187
The way to read it is to look at the new -{n,m} part in the lock
description; -{3:3} for the attempted lock, and try and match that up to
the held locks, which in this case is the one: -{2,2}.
This tells that the acquiring lock requires a more relaxed environment than
presented by the lock stack.
Currently only the normal locks and RCU are converted, the rest of the
lockdep users defaults to .inner = INV which is ignored. More conversions
can be done when desired.
The check for spinlock_t nesting is not enabled by default. It's a separate
config option for now as there are known problems which are currently
addressed. The config option allows to identify these problems and to
verify that the solutions found are indeed solving them.
The config switch will be removed and the checks will permanently enabled
once the vast majority of issues has been addressed.

__mutex_owner() should only be used by the mutex api's.
So, to put this restiction let's move the __mutex_owner()
function definition from linux/mutex.h to mutex.c file.
There exist functions that uses __mutex_owner() like
mutex_is_locked() and mutex_trylock_recursive(), So
to keep legacy thing intact move them as well and
export them.
Move mutex_waiter structure also to keep it private to the

Convert the locking documents to ReST and add them to the
kernel development book where it belongs.
Most of the stuff here is just to make Sphinx to properly
parse the text file, as they're already in good shape,
not requiring massive changes in order to be parsed.
The conversion is actually:
- add blank lines and identation in order to identify paragraphs;
- fix tables markups;
- add some lists markups;
- mark literal blocks;
- adjust title markups.
At its new index.rst, let's add a :orphan: while this is not linked to
the main index.rst file, in order to avoid build warnings.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg

We sometimes end up propagating IO blocking through mutexes; however,
because there currently is no way of annotating mutex sleeps as
iowait, there are cases where iowait and /proc/stat:procs_blocked
report misleading numbers obscuring the actual state of the system.
This patch adds mutex_lock_io() so that mutex sleeps can be marked as
iowait in those cases.

Add regular waiters in stamp order. Keep adding waiters that have no
context in FIFO order and take care not to starve them.
While adding our task as a waiter, back off if we detect that there is
a waiter with a lower stamp in front of us.
Make sure to call lock_contended even when we back off early.
For w/w mutexes, being first in the wait list is only stable when
taking the lock without a context. Therefore, the purpose of the first
flag is split into two: 'first' remains to indicate whether we want to
spin optimistically, while 'handoff' indicates that we should be
prepared to accept a handoff.
For w/w locking with a context, we always accept handoffs after the
first schedule(), to handle the following sequence of events:
1. Task #0 unlocks and hands off to Task #2 which is first in line
2. Task #1 adds itself in front of Task #2
3. Task #2 wakes up and must accept the handoff even though it is no
longer first in line

While reviewing the ww_mutex patches, I noticed that it was still
possible to (incorrectly) succeed for (incorrect) code like:
mutex_lock(&a);
mutex_lock(&a);
This was possible if the second mutex_lock() would block (as expected)
but then receive a spurious wakeup. At that point it would find itself
at the front of the queue, request a handoff and instantly claim
ownership and continue, since owner would point to itself.
Avoid this scenario and simplify the code by introducing a third low
bit to signal handoff pickup. So once we request handoff, unlock
clears the handoff bit and sets the pickup bit along with the new
owner.
This also removes the need for the .handoff argument to
__mutex_trylock(), since that becomes superfluous with PICKUP.
In order to guarantee enough low bits, ensure task_struct alignment is
at least L1_CACHE_BYTES (which seems a good ideal regardless).

By popular DRM demand, introduce mutex_trylock_recursive() to fix up the
two GEM users.
Without this it is very easy for these drivers to get stuck in
low-memory situations and trigger OOM. Work is in progress to remove the

The current mutex implementation has an atomic lock word and a
non-atomic owner field.
This disparity leads to a number of issues with the current mutex code
as it means that we can have a locked mutex without an explicit owner
(because the owner field has not been set, or already cleared).
This leads to a number of weird corner cases, esp. between the
optimistic spinning and debug code. Where the optimistic spinning
code needs the owner field updated inside the lock region, the debug
code is more relaxed because the whole lock is serialized by the
wait_lock.
Also, the spinning code itself has a few corner cases where we need to
deal with a held lock without an owner field.
Furthermore, it becomes even more of a problem when trying to fix
starvation cases in the current code. We end up stacking special case
on special case.
To solve this rework the basic mutex implementation to be a single
atomic word that contains the owner and uses the low bits for extra
state.
This matches how PI futexes and rt_mutex already work. By having the
owner an integral part of the lock state a lot of the problems
dissapear and we get a better option to deal with starvation cases,
direct owner handoff.
Changing the basic mutex does however invalidate all the arch specific
mutex code; this patch leaves that unused in-place, a later patch will
remove that.

4badad35 ("locking/mutex: Disable optimistic spinning on some
architectures") added a ARCH_SUPPORTS_ATOMIC_RMW flag to
disable the mutex optimistic feature on specific archs.
Because CONFIG_MUTEX_SPIN_ON_OWNER only depended on DEBUG and
SMP, it was ok to have the ->owner field conditional a bit
flexible. However by adding a new variable to the matter,
we can waste space with the unused field, ie: CONFIG_SMP &&
(!CONFIG_MUTEX_SPIN_ON_OWNER && !CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEX).

The arch_mutex_cpu_relax() function, introduced by 34b133f, is
hacky and ugly. It was added a few years ago to address the fact
that common cpu_relax() calls include yielding on s390, and thus
impact the optimistic spinning functionality of mutexes. Nowadays
we use this function well beyond mutexes: rwsem, qrwlock, mcs and
lockref. Since the macro that defines the call is in the mutex header,
any users must include mutex.h and the naming is misleading as well.
This patch (i) renames the call to cpu_relax_lowlatency ("relax, but
only if you can do it with very low latency") and (ii) defines it in
each arch's asm/processor.h local header, just like for regular cpu_relax
functions. On all archs, except s390, cpu_relax_lowlatency is simply cpu_relax,
and thus we can take it out of mutex.h. While this can seem redundant,
I believe it is a good choice as it allows us to move out arch specific
logic from generic locking primitives and enables future(?) archs to
transparently define it, similarly to System Z.

The cancellable MCS spinlock is currently used to queue threads that are
doing optimistic spinning. It uses per-cpu nodes, where a thread obtaining
the lock would access and queue the local node corresponding to the CPU that
it's running on. Currently, the cancellable MCS lock is implemented by using
pointers to these nodes.
In this patch, instead of operating on pointers to the per-cpu nodes, we
store the CPU numbers in which the per-cpu nodes correspond to in atomic_t.
A similar concept is used with the qspinlock.
By operating on the CPU # of the nodes using atomic_t instead of pointers
to those nodes, this can reduce the overhead of the cancellable MCS spinlock
by 32 bits (on 64 bit systems).

Currently, the per-cpu nodes structure for the cancellable MCS spinlock is
named "optimistic_spin_queue". However, in a follow up patch in the series
we will be introducing a new structure that serves as the new "handle" for
the lock. It would make more sense if that structure is named
"optimistic_spin_queue". Additionally, since the current use of the
"optimistic_spin_queue" structure are "nodes", it might be better if we
rename them to "node" anyway.
This preparatory patch renames all current "optimistic_spin_queue"
to "optimistic_spin_node".

reschedule on need_resched() we must be able to abort the
mcs_spin_lock() around the adaptive spin.
Therefore implement a cancelable mcs lock.

its own file
We will need the MCS lock code for doing optimistic spinning for rwsem
and queued rwlock. Extracting the MCS code from mutex.c and put into
its own file allow us to reuse this code easily.
We also inline mcs_spin_lock and mcs_spin_unlock functions
for better efficiency.
Note that using the smp_load_acquire/smp_store_release pair used in
mcs_lock and mcs_unlock is not sufficient to form a full memory barrier
across cpus for many architectures (except x86). For applications that
absolutely need a full barrier across multiple cpus with mcs_unlock and
mcs_lock pair, smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() should be used after mcs_lock.

Linus suggested to replace
#ifndef CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_MUTEX_CPU_RELAX
#define arch_mutex_cpu_relax() cpu_relax()
#endif
with just a simple
#ifndef arch_mutex_cpu_relax
# define arch_mutex_cpu_relax() cpu_relax()
#endif
to get rid of CONFIG_HAVE_CPU_RELAX_SIMPLE. So architectures can
simply define arch_mutex_cpu_relax if they want an architecture
specific function instead of having to add a select statement in
their Kconfig in addition.

Injects EDEADLK conditions at pseudo-random interval, with
exponential backoff up to UINT_MAX (to ensure that every lock
operation still completes in a reasonable time).
This way we can test the wound slowpath even for ww mutex users
where contention is never expected, and the ww deadlock
avoidance algorithm is only needed for correctness against
malicious userspace. An example would be protecting kernel
modesetting properties, which thanks to single-threaded X isn't
really expected to contend, ever.
I've looked into using the CONFIG_FAULT_INJECTION
infrastructure, but decided against it for two reasons:
- EDEADLK handling is mandatory for ww mutex users and should
never affect the outcome of a syscall. This is in contrast to -ENOMEM
injection. So fine configurability isn't required.
- The fault injection framework only allows to set a simple
probability for failure. Now the probability that a ww mutex acquire
stage with N locks will never complete (due to too many injected
EDEADLK backoffs) is zero. But the expected number of ww_mutex_lock
operations for the completely uncontended case would be O(exp(N)).
The per-acuiqire ctx exponential backoff solution choosen here only
results in O(log N) overhead due to injection and so O(log N * N)
lock operations. This way we can fail with high probability (and so
have good test coverage even for fancy backoff and lock acquisition
paths) without running into patalogical cases.
Note that EDEADLK will only ever be injected when we managed to
acquire the lock. This prevents any behaviour changes for users
which rely on the EALREADY semantics.

Wound/wait mutexes are used when other multiple lock
acquisitions of a similar type can be done in an arbitrary
order. The deadlock handling used here is called wait/wound in
the RDBMS literature: The older tasks waits until it can acquire
the contended lock. The younger tasks needs to back off and drop
all the locks it is currently holding, i.e. the younger task is
wounded.

The current mutex spinning code (with MUTEX_SPIN_ON_OWNER option
turned on) allow multiple tasks to spin on a single mutex
concurrently. A potential problem with the current approach is
that when the mutex becomes available, all the spinning tasks
will try to acquire the mutex more or less simultaneously. As a
result, there will be a lot of cacheline bouncing especially on
systems with a large number of CPUs.
This patch tries to reduce this kind of contention by putting
the mutex spinners into a queue so that only the first one in
the queue will try to acquire the mutex. This will reduce
contention and allow all the tasks to move forward faster.
The queuing of mutex spinners is done using an MCS lock based
implementation which will further reduce contention on the mutex
cacheline than a similar ticket spinlock based implementation.
This patch will add a new field into the mutex data structure
for holding the MCS lock. This expands the mutex size by 8 bytes
for 64-bit system and 4 bytes for 32-bit system. This overhead
will be avoid if the MUTEX_SPIN_ON_OWNER option is turned off.
The following table shows the jobs per minute (JPM) scalability
data on an 8-node 80-core Westmere box with a 3.7.10 kernel. The
numactl command is used to restrict the running of the fserver
workloads to 1/2/4/8 nodes with hyperthreading off.

At low user range 10-100, the JPM differences were within +/-1%.
So they are not that interesting.
The fserver workload uses mutex spinning extensively. With just
the mutex change in the first patch, there is no noticeable
change in performance. Rather, there is a slight drop in
performance. This mutex spinning patch more than recovers the
lost performance and show a significant increase of +30% at high
user load with the full 8 nodes. Similar improvements were also
seen in a 3.8 kernel.
The table below shows the %time spent by different kernel
functions as reported by perf when running the fserver workload
at 1500 users with all 8 nodes.
+-----------------------+-----------+---------+-------------+
| Function | % time | % time | % time |
| | w/o patch | patch 1 | patches 1&2 |
+-----------------------+-----------+---------+-------------+
| __read_lock_failed | 34.96% | 34.91% | 29.14% |
| __write_lock_failed | 10.14% | 10.68% | 7.51% |
| mutex_spin_on_owner | 3.62% | 3.42% | 2.33% |
| mspin_lock | N/A | N/A | 9.90% |
| __mutex_lock_slowpath | 1.46% | 0.81% | 0.14% |
| _raw_spin_lock | 2.25% | 2.50% | 1.10% |
+-----------------------+-----------+---------+-------------+
The fserver workload for an 8-node system is dominated by the
contention in the read/write lock. Mutex contention also plays a
role. With the first patch only, mutex contention is down (as
shown by the __mutex_lock_slowpath figure) which help a little
bit. We saw only a few percents improvement with that.
By applying patch 2 as well, the single mutex_spin_on_owner
figure is now split out into an additional mspin_lock figure.
The time increases from 3.42% to 11.23%. It shows a great
reduction in contention among the spinners leading to a 30%
improvement. The time ratio 9.9/2.33=4.3 indicates that there
are on average 4+ spinners waiting in the spin_lock loop for
each spinner in the mutex_spin_on_owner loop. Contention in
other locking functions also go down by quite a lot.
The table below shows the performance change of both patches 1 &
2 over patch 1 alone in other AIM7 workloads (at 8 nodes,
hyperthreading off).
+--------------+---------------+----------------+-----------------+
| Workload | mean % change | mean % change | mean % change |
| | 10-100 users | 200-1000 users | 1100-2000 users |
+--------------+---------------+----------------+-----------------+
| alltests | 0.0% | -0.8% | +0.6% |
| five_sec | -0.3% | +0.8% | +0.8% |
| high_systime | +0.4% | +2.4% | +2.1% |
| new_fserver | +0.1% | +14.1% | +34.2% |
| shared | -0.5% | -0.3% | -0.4% |
| short | -1.7% | -9.8% | -8.3% |
+--------------+---------------+----------------+-----------------+
The short workload is the only one that shows a decline in
performance probably due to the spinner locking and queuing
overhead.
