The "busted" rcutorture type is an intentionally broken implementation
of RCU. Doing forward-progress testing on this implementation is not
particularly meaningful on the one hand and can result in fatal abuse
of the memory allocator on the other. This commit therefore disables
forward-progress testing of the "busted" rcutorture type.

This commit narrows the scope of each bucket of the forward-progress
callback-invocation histograms from one second to 100 milliseconds, which
aids debugging of forward-progress problems by making shorter-duration
callback-invocation stalls visible.

This commit causes the OOM handler to do rcu_barrier() calls and to
free up forward-progress callbacks in order to recover from OOM events.
The current test is terminated, but subsequent forward-progress tests can
proceed. This allows a long test to result in multiple forward-progress
failures, greatly reducing the required testing time.

If rcutorture's forward-progress tests fail while a grace period is not
in progress, it is useful to print the time since the last grace period
ended as a way to detect failure to launch a new grace period. This
commit therefore makes this change.

One reason why a forward-progress test might fail would be if something

The RCU CPU stall warnings print an estimate of the total number of
RCU callbacks queued in the system, but this estimate leaves out
the callbacks queued for nocbs CPUs. This commit therefore introduces
rcu_get_n_cbs_cpu(), which gives an accurate callback estimate for
both nocbs and normal CPUs, and uses this new function as needed.
This commit also introduces a rcu_get_n_cbs_nocb_cpu() helper function
that returns the number of callbacks for nocbs CPUs or zero otherwise,
and also uses this function in place of direct access to ->nocb_q_count
while in the area (fewer characters, you see).

This commit splits rcu_torture_fwd_prog_nr() and rcu_torture_fwd_prog_cr()
functions out of rcu_torture_fwd_prog() in order to reduce indentation
pain and because rcu_torture_fwd_prog() was getting a bit too long.
In addition, this will enable easier conditional execution of the
rcu_torture_fwd_prog_cr() function, which can give false-positive
failures in some NO_HZ_FULL configurations due to overloading the
housekeeping CPUs.

Now that the forward-progress code does a full-bore continuous callback
flood lasting multiple seconds, there is little point in also posting a
mere 60,000 callbacks every second or so. This commit therefore removes
the old cbflood testing. Over time, it may be desirable to concurrently
do full-bore continuous callback floods on all CPUs simultaneously, but
one dragon at a time.

This commit adds a call_rcu() flooding loop to the forward-progress test.
This emulates tight userspace loops that force call_rcu() invocations,
for example, the infamous loop containing close(open()) that instigated
the addition of blimit. If RCU does not make sufficient forward progress
in invoking the resulting flood of callbacks, rcutorture emits a warning.

In RCU, the distinction between "rsp", "rnp", and "rdp" has served well
for a great many years, but in SRCU, "sp" vs. "sdp" has proven confusing.
This commit therefore renames SRCU's "sp" pointers to "ssp", so that there
is "ssp" for srcu_struct pointer, "snp" for srcu_node pointer, and "sdp"
for srcu_data pointer.

The srcu_gp_start() function is called with the srcu_struct structure's
->lock held, but not with the srcu_data structure's ->lock. This is
problematic because this function accesses and updates the srcu_data
structure's ->srcu_cblist, which is protected by that lock. Failing to
hold this lock can result in corruption of the SRCU callback lists,
which in turn can result in arbitrarily bad results.
This commit therefore makes srcu_gp_start() acquire the srcu_data
structure's ->lock across the calls to rcu_segcblist_advance() and
rcu_segcblist_accelerate(), thus preventing this corruption.

Ever since cdf7abc4610a ("srcu: Allow use of Tiny/Tree SRCU from
both process and interrupt context"), it has been permissible
to use SRCU read-side critical sections in interrupt context.
This allows __call_srcu() to use SRCU read-side critical sections to
prevent a new SRCU grace period from ending before the call to either
srcu_funnel_gp_start() or srcu_funnel_exp_start completes, thus preventing
SRCU grace-period counter overflow during that time.
Note that this does not permit removal of the counter-wrap checks in
srcu_gp_end(). These check are necessary to handle the case where
a given CPU does not interact at all with SRCU for an extended time
period.
This commit therefore adds an SRCU read-side critical section to
__call_srcu() in order to prevent grace period counter wrap during
the funnel-locking process.

Subtracting INT_MIN can be interpreted as unconditional signed integer
overflow, which according to the C standard is undefined behavior.
Therefore, kernel build arguments notwithstanding, it would be good to
future-proof the code. This commit therefore substitutes INT_MAX for
INT_MIN in order to avoid undefined behavior.
While in the neighborhood, this commit also creates some meaningful names
for INT_MAX and friends in order to improve readability, as suggested
by Joel Fernandes.

In PREEMPT kernels, an expedited grace period might send an IPI to a
CPU that is executing an RCU read-side critical section. In that case,
it would be nice if the rcu_read_unlock() directly interacted with the
RCU core code to immediately report the quiescent state. And this does
happen in the case where the reader has been preempted. But it would
also be a nice performance optimization if immediate reporting also
happened in the preemption-free case.
This commit therefore adds an ->exp_hint field to the task_struct structure's
->rcu_read_unlock_special field. The IPI handler sets this hint when
it has interrupted an RCU read-side critical section, and this causes
the outermost rcu_read_unlock() call to invoke rcu_read_unlock_special(),
which, if preemption is enabled, reports the quiescent state immediately.
If preemption is disabled, then the report is required to be deferred
until preemption (or bottom halves or interrupts or whatever) is re-enabled.
Because this is a hint, it does nothing for more complicated cases. For
example, if the IPI interrupts an RCU reader, but interrupts are disabled
across the rcu_read_unlock(), but another rcu_read_lock() is executed
before interrupts are re-enabled, the hint will already have been cleared.
If you do crazy things like this, reporting will be deferred until some
later RCU_SOFTIRQ handler, context switch, cond_resched(), or similar.

Currently, rcu_gp_cleanup() traces the end of the old grace period after
the old grace period has officially ended. This might make intuitive
sense, but it also makes for confusing event-trace output because the
"end" trace displays not the old but instead the new grace-period number.
This commit therefore traces the end of an old grace period just before
that grace period officially ends.

Because RCU avoids interrupting idle CPUs, rcu_is_watching() is used to
test whether or not it is currently legal to run RCU read-side critical
sections on this CPU. However, the first sentence and last sentences
of current comment for rcu_is_watching have opposite meaning of what
is expected. This commit therefore fixes this header comment.

In order to debug forward-progress stalls, it is necessary to check
for excessively delayed grace-period starts. This is currently done
for RCU CPU stall warnings by rcu_check_gp_start_stall(), which checks
to see if the start of a requested grace period has been delayed by an
RCU CPU stall warning period. Because rcutorture will need to check
for the time consumed by an RCU forward-progress delay, this commit
promotes gpssdelay from a local variable to a formal parameter. It is
not necessary to export rcu_check_gp_start_stall() because rcutorture
will access it via a wrapper function.

The CPU-selection code in sync_rcu_exp_select_cpus() disables preemption
to prevent the cpu_online_mask from changing. However, this relies on
the stop-machine mechanism in the CPU-hotplug offline code, which is not
desirable (it would be good to someday remove the stop-machine mechanism).
This commit therefore instead uses the relevant leaf rcu_node structure's
->ffmask, which has a bit set for all CPUs that are fully functional.
A given CPU's bit is cleared very early during offline processing by
rcutree_offline_cpu() and set very late during online processing by
rcutree_online_cpu(). Therefore, if a CPU's bit is set in this mask, and
preemption is disabled, we have to be before the synchronize_sched() in
the CPU-hotplug offline code, which means that the CPU is guaranteed to be
workqueue-ready throughout the duration of the enclosing preempt_disable()
region of code.
This also has the side-effect of using WORK_CPU_UNBOUND if all the CPUs for
this leaf rcu_node structure are offline, which is an acceptable difference
in behavior.

Now that synchronize_rcu() waits for both RCU read-side critical
sections and preempt-disabled regions of code, the sole caller of
synchronize_rcu_mult() can be replaced by synchronize_rcu().
This patch makes this change and removes synchronize_rcu_mult().
Note that _wait_rcu_gp() still supports synchronize_rcu_mult(),
and thus might be simplified in the future to take only take
a single call_rcu() function rather than the current list of them.

The current forward-progress testing maintains a self-propagating
callback during the full test. This could result in false negatives
for stutter-end checking, where it might appear that RCU was clearing
out old callbacks only because it was being continually motivated by
the self-propagating callback. This commit therefore shuts down the
self-propagating callback at the end of each forward-progress test
interval.

The rcu_torture_writer() function invokes stutter_wait() at the end of
each writer pass, which occasionally blocks for an extended time period
in order to ensure that RCU can handle intermittent loads. But part of
handling a busy period is invoking all the callbacks before the end of
the idle period induced by stutter_wait().
This commit therefore adds a return value to stutter_wait() indicating
whether stutter_wait() actually waited. In addition, this commit causes
rcu_torture_writer() to test this value and if set, checks that all the
elements of the rcu_tortures[] array have been freed up.

Currently, rcutorture provisions rcu_torture_reader() kthreads based
on the initial number of CPUs. This can be problematic when CPU hotplug
is enabled, as a system with a very large number of CPUs will provision
a very large number of rcu_torture_reader() kthreads. All of these
kthreads will continue running even if the CPU-hotplug operations result
in only one remaining online CPU. This can result in all sorts of strange
artifacts due simply to massive overload.
This commit therefore causes the rcu_torture_reader() kthreads to start
blocking as the number of online CPUs decreases. This is accomplished
by numbering these kthreads, and having each check to make sure that the
number of online CPUs is at least as large as its assigned number.

On !SMP tests, the forward-progress kthread might prevent RCU's
grace-period kthread from running, which would defeat RCU's
forward-progress measures. On PREEMPT tests without RCU priority
boosting, the forward-progress kthread might preempt a reader for an
extended time period, which would also defeat RCU's forward-progress
measures. This commit therefore reduced rcutorture's forward-progress
kthread's priority in those cases.

There are debug checks in some environments that will complain if the
duration of a bh-disabled region of code exceeds about 50 milliseconds.
Because rcu_read_delay() can produce a 50-millisecond delay and because
there could be up to eight reader segments with such delays, this commit
limits the maximum delay to 10 milliseconds if either interrupts or
softirqs are disabled.

RCU now takes certain actions 100 and 200 milliseconds into a grace period
by default, but rcutorture only runs RCU read-side critical sections
with durations up to 50 milliseconds. This commit therefore increases
test coverage by increasing the maximum critical-section duration to
300 milliseconds. Note that the existing code automatically dials down
the probability of long delays based on the maximum duration, which means
that this change should not significantly change the rate of execution
of RCU read-side critical sections.

If rcutorture is run on a quiet system with the rcutorture.stutter module
parameter set high, then there can legitimately be an extended period
during which no RCU forward progress takes place. This can result
in false-positive no-forward-progress splats. This commit therefore
makes rcu_torture_fwd_prog() create a self-propagating RCU callback
to ensure that grace periods are in progress for the duration of the
forward-progress test.
Note that the RCU flavor under test must define ->call(), ->sync(),
and ->cb_barrier() for this self-propagating callback to be created.
If one or more of those rcu_torture_ops fields are NULL, then the
rcu_torture_fwd_prog() function will silently proceed without creating
the self-propagating callback.

Some of the Linux kernel's RCU implementations provide several mechanisms
to promote forward progress that operate over different timeframes.
This commit therefore causes rcu_torture_fwd_prog() to vary the duration
of its forward-progress testing in order to test each such mechanism.

In a too-short test, random delays can cause each attempt to do
forward-progress testing to fail to complete, thus resulting in
spurious splats. This commit therefore requires at least five tries
before complaining about rcutorture runs that failed to produce at
least one valid forward-progress testing attempt. Note that actual
forward-progress failures will splat regardless of the number of tries.

Currently, rcutorture relies solely on the progress of
rcu_torture_writer() to judge grace-period forward progress. In theory,
this is the gold standard of forward progress, but in practice rcutorture
separately detects and reports rcu_torture_writer() stalls. This commit
therefore adds the grace-period sequence number (when provided) to the
judgment of grace-period forward progress, which makes it easier to
distinguish between failure of actual grace periods to progress on the
one hand and downstream forward-progress failures on the other.
For example, given this change, if rcu_torture_writer() stalls,
but rcu_torture_fwd_prog() does not complain, then the grace-period
computation is working, which is a hint that the failure lies in callback
processing, wakeup of the rcu_torture_writer() kthread, or similar.

This commit adds a kthread that loops going into and out of RCU
read-side critical sections, but also including a cond_resched(),
optionally guarded by a check of need_resched(), in that same loop.
This commit relies solely on rcu_torture_writer() progress to judge
the forward progress of grace periods.
Note that Tasks RCU and SRCU are exempted from forward-progress testing
due their (intentionally) less-robust forward-progress guarantees.
