License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license 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 based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

sched/wait: Standardize internal naming of wait-queue entries So the various wait-queue entry variables in include/linux/wait.h and kernel/sched/wait.c are named in a colorfully inconsistent way: wait_queue_entry_t *wait wait_queue_entry_t *__wait (even in plain C code!) wait_queue_entry_t *q (!) wait_queue_entry_t *new (making anyone who knows C++ cringe) wait_queue_entry_t *old I think part of the reason for the inconsistency is the constant apparent confusion about what a wait queue 'head' versus 'entry' is. ( Some of the documentation talks about a 'wait descriptor', which is the wait-queue entry itself - further adding to the confusion. ) The most common name is 'wait', but that in itself is somewhat ambiguous as well, as it does not really make it clear whether it's a wait-queue entry or head. To improve all this name the wait-queue entry structure parameters and variables consistently and push through this naming into all the wait.h and wait.c code: struct wait_queue_entry *wq_entry The 'wq_' prefix makes it easy to grep for, and we also use the opportunity to move away from the typedef to a plain 'struct' naming: in the kernel we typically reserve typedefs for cases where a C structure is really small and somewhat opaque - such as pte_t. wait-queue entries are neither small nor opaque, so use the more standard 'struct xxx_entry' list management code nomenclature instead.

sched/wait: Disambiguate wq_entry->task_list and wq_head->task_list naming So I've noticed a number of instances where it was not obvious from the code whether ->task_list was for a wait-queue head or a wait-queue entry. Furthermore, there's a number of wait-queue users where the lists are not for 'tasks' but other entities (poll tables, etc.), in which case the 'task_list' name is actively confusing. To clear this all up, name the wait-queue head and entry list structure fields unambiguously: struct wait_queue_head::task_list => ::head struct wait_queue_entry::task_list => ::entry For example, this code: rqw->wait.task_list.next != &wait->task_list ... is was pretty unclear (to me) what it's doing, while now it's written this way: rqw->wait.head.next != &wait->entry ... which makes it pretty clear that we are iterating a list until we see the head.

Other examples are: list_for_each_entry_safe(pos, next, &x->task_list, task_list) { list_for_each_entry(wq, &fence->wait.task_list, task_list) { ... where it's unclear (to me) what we are iterating, and during review it's hard to tell whether it's trying to walk a wait-queue entry (which would be a bug), while now it's written as: list_for_each_entry_safe(pos, next, &x->head, entry) { list_for_each_entry(wq, &fence->wait.head, entry) { Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

wait: add wake_up_pollfree() Several ->poll() implementations are special in that they use a waitqueue whose lifetime is the current task, rather than the struct file as is normally the case. This is okay for blocking polls, since a blocking poll occurs within one task; however, non-blocking polls require another solution. This solution is for the queue to be cleared before it is freed, using 'wake_up_poll(wq, EPOLLHUP | POLLFREE);'. However, that has a bug: wake_up_poll() calls __wake_up() with nr_exclusive=1. Therefore, if there are multiple "exclusive" waiters, and the wakeup function for the first one returns a positive value, only that one will be called. That's *not* what's needed for POLLFREE; POLLFREE is special in that it really needs to wake up everyone. Considering the three non-blocking poll systems: - io_uring poll doesn't handle POLLFREE at all, so it is broken anyway. - aio poll is unaffected, since it doesn't support exclusive waits. However, that's fragile, as someone could add this feature later. - epoll doesn't appear to be broken by this, since its wakeup function returns 0 when it sees POLLFREE. But this is fragile. Although there is a workaround (see epoll), it's better to define a function which always sends POLLFREE to all waiters. Add such a function. Also make it verify that the queue really becomes empty after all waiters have been woken up.

sched/wait: Standardize internal naming of wait-queue entries So the various wait-queue entry variables in include/linux/wait.h and kernel/sched/wait.c are named in a colorfully inconsistent way: wait_queue_entry_t *wait wait_queue_entry_t *__wait (even in plain C code!) wait_queue_entry_t *q (!) wait_queue_entry_t *new (making anyone who knows C++ cringe) wait_queue_entry_t *old I think part of the reason for the inconsistency is the constant apparent confusion about what a wait queue 'head' versus 'entry' is. ( Some of the documentation talks about a 'wait descriptor', which is the wait-queue entry itself - further adding to the confusion. ) The most common name is 'wait', but that in itself is somewhat ambiguous as well, as it does not really make it clear whether it's a wait-queue entry or head. To improve all this name the wait-queue entry structure parameters and variables consistently and push through this naming into all the wait.h and wait.c code: struct wait_queue_entry *wq_entry The 'wq_' prefix makes it easy to grep for, and we also use the opportunity to move away from the typedef to a plain 'struct' naming: in the kernel we typically reserve typedefs for cases where a C structure is really small and somewhat opaque - such as pte_t. wait-queue entries are neither small nor opaque, so use the more standard 'struct xxx_entry' list management code nomenclature instead. ( We don't touch external users, and we preserve the typedef as well for actual wait-queue users, to reduce unnecessary churn. ) Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

freezer,sched: Rewrite core freezer logic Rewrite the core freezer to behave better wrt thawing and be simpler in general. By replacing PF_FROZEN with TASK_FROZEN, a special block state, it is ensured frozen tasks stay frozen until thawed and don't randomly wake up early, as is currently possible. As such, it does away with PF_FROZEN and PF_FREEZER_SKIP, freeing up two PF_flags (yay!). Specifically; the current scheme works a little like: freezer_do_not_count(); schedule(); freezer_count(); And either the task is blocked, or it lands in try_to_freezer() through freezer_count(). Now, when it is blocked, the freezer considers it frozen and continues. However, on thawing, once pm_freezing is cleared, freezer_count() stops working, and any random/spurious wakeup will let a task run before its time. That is, thawing tries to thaw things in explicit order; kernel threads and workqueues before doing bringing SMP back before userspace etc.. However due to the above mentioned races it is entirely possible for userspace tasks to thaw (by accident) before SMP is back. This can be a fatal problem in asymmetric ISA architectures (eg ARMv9) where the userspace task requires a special CPU to run. As said; replace this with a special task state TASK_FROZEN and add the following state transitions: TASK_FREEZABLE -> TASK_FROZEN __TASK_STOPPED -> TASK_FROZEN __TASK_TRACED -> TASK_FROZEN The new TASK_FREEZABLE can be set on any state part of TASK_NORMAL (IOW. TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE) -- any such state is already required to deal with spurious wakeups and the freezer causes one such when thawing the task (since the original state is lost). The special __TASK_{STOPPED,TRACED} states *can* be restored since their canonical state is in ->jobctl. With this, frozen tasks need an explicit TASK_FROZEN wakeup and are free of undue (early / spurious) wakeups.

wait: fix false timeouts when using wait_event_timeout() Many callers of the wait_event_timeout() and wait_event_interruptible_timeout() expect that the return value will be positive if the specified condition becomes true before the timeout elapses. However, at the moment this isn't guaranteed. If the wake-up handler is delayed enough, the time remaining until timeout will be calculated as 0 - and passed back as a return value - even if the condition became true before the timeout has passed. Fix this by returning at least 1 if the condition becomes true. This semantic is in line with what wait_for_condition_timeout() does; see commit bb10ed09 ("sched: fix wait_for_completion_timeout() spurious failure under heavy load"). Daniel said "We have 3 instances of this bug in drm/i915. One case even where we switch between the interruptible and not interruptible wait_event_timeout variants, foolishly presuming they have the same semantics. I very much like this."

wait: add wait_event_hrtimeout() Analagous to wait_event_timeout() and friends, this adds wait_event_hrtimeout() and wait_event_interruptible_hrtimeout(). Note that unlike the versions that use regular timers, these don't return the amount of time remaining when they return - instead, they return 0 or -ETIME if they timed out. because I was uncomfortable with the semantics of doing it the other way (that I could get it right, anyways). If the timer expires, there's no real guarantee that expire_time - current_time would be <= 0 - due to timer slack certainly, and I'm not sure I want to know the implications of the different clock bases in hrtimers. If the timer does expire and the code calculates that the time remaining is nonnegative, that could be even worse if the calling code then reuses that timeout. Probably safer to just return 0 then, but I could imagine weird bugs or at least unintended behaviour arising from that too. I came to the conclusion that if other users end up actually needing the amount of time remaining, the sanest thing to do would be to create a version that uses absolute timeouts instead of relative.

wait: add wait_event_hrtimeout() Analagous to wait_event_timeout() and friends, this adds wait_event_hrtimeout() and wait_event_interruptible_hrtimeout(). Note that unlike the versions that use regular timers, these don't return the amount of time remaining when they return - instead, they return 0 or -ETIME if they timed out. because I was uncomfortable with the semantics of doing it the other way (that I could get it right, anyways). If the timer expires, there's no real guarantee that expire_time - current_time would be <= 0 - due to timer slack certainly, and I'm not sure I want to know the implications of the different clock bases in hrtimers. If the timer does expire and the code calculates that the time remaining is nonnegative, that could be even worse if the calling code then reuses that timeout.

freezer,sched: Rewrite core freezer logic Rewrite the core freezer to behave better wrt thawing and be simpler in general. By replacing PF_FROZEN with TASK_FROZEN, a special block state, it is ensured frozen tasks stay frozen until thawed and don't randomly wake up early, as is currently possible. As such, it does away with PF_FROZEN and PF_FREEZER_SKIP, freeing up two PF_flags (yay!). Specifically; the current scheme works a little like: freezer_do_not_count(); schedule(); freezer_count(); And either the task is blocked, or it lands in try_to_freezer() through freezer_count(). Now, when it is blocked, the freezer considers it frozen and continues. However, on thawing, once pm_freezing is cleared, freezer_count() stops working, and any random/spurious wakeup will let a task run before its time. That is, thawing tries to thaw things in explicit order; kernel threads and workqueues before doing bringing SMP back before userspace etc.. However due to the above mentioned races it is entirely possible for userspace tasks to thaw (by accident) before SMP is back. This can be a fatal problem in asymmetric ISA architectures (eg ARMv9) where the userspace task requires a special CPU to run. As said; replace this with a special task state TASK_FROZEN and add the following state transitions: TASK_FREEZABLE -> TASK_FROZEN __TASK_STOPPED -> TASK_FROZEN __TASK_TRACED -> TASK_FROZEN The new TASK_FREEZABLE can be set on any state part of TASK_NORMAL (IOW. TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE and TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE) -- any such state is already required to deal with spurious wakeups and the freezer causes one such when thawing the task (since the original state is lost). The special __TASK_{STOPPED,TRACED} states *can* be restored since their canonical state is in ->jobctl. With this, frozen tasks need an explicit TASK_FROZEN wakeup and are free of undue (early / spurious) wakeups.

wait: add wait_event_killable_timeout() These are the few pending fixes I have queued up for v4.13-final. One is a a generic regression fix for recursive loops on kmod and the other one is a trivial print out correction. During the v4.13 development we assumed that recursive kmod loops were no longer possible. Clearly that is not true. The regression fix makes use of a new killable wait. We use a killable wait to be paranoid in how signals might be sent to modprobe and only accept a proper SIGKILL. The signal will only be available to userspace to issue *iff* a thread has already entered a wait state, and that happens only if we've already throttled after 50 kmod threads have been hit. Note that although it may seem excessive to trigger a failure afer 5 seconds if all kmod thread remain busy, prior to the series of changes that went into v4.13 we would actually *always* fatally fail any request which came in if the limit was already reached. The new waiting implemented in v4.13 actually gives us *more* breathing room -- the wait for 5 seconds is a wait for *any* kmod thread to finish. We give up and fail *iff* no kmod thread has finished and they're *all* running straight for 5 consecutive seconds. If 50 kmod threads are running consecutively for 5 seconds something else must be really bad. Recursive loops with kmod are bad but they're also hard to implement properly as a selftest without currently fooling current userspace tools like kmod [1]. For instance kmod will complain when you run depmod if it finds a recursive loop with symbol dependency between modules as such this type of recursive loop cannot go upstream as the modules_install target will fail after running depmod. These tests already exist on userspace kmod upstream though (refer to the testsuite/module-playground/mod-loop-*.c files). The same is not true if request_module() is used though, or worst if aliases are used. Likewise the issue with 64-bit kernels booting 32-bit userspace without a binfmt handler built-in is also currently not detected and proactively avoided by userspace kmod tools, or kconfig for all architectures. Although we could complain in the kernel when some of these individual recursive issues creep up, proactively avoiding these situations in userspace at build time is what we should keep striving for. Lastly, since recursive loops could happen with kmod it may mean recursive loops may also be possible with other kernel usermode helpers, this should be investigated and long term if we can come up with a more sensible generic solution even better!

[SCSI] zfcp: fix lock imbalance by reworking request queue locking This patch adds wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq_timeout(), which is a straight-forward descendant of wait_event_interruptible_timeout() and wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq(). The zfcp driver used to call wait_event_interruptible_timeout() in combination with some intricate and error-prone locking. Using wait_event_interruptible_lock_irq_timeout() as a replacement nicely cleans up that locking. This rework removes a situation that resulted in a locking imbalance in zfcp_qdio_sbal_get(): BUG: workqueue leaked lock or atomic: events/1/0xffffff00/10 last function: zfcp_fc_wka_port_offline+0x0/0xa0 [zfcp] It was introduced by commit c2af7545aaff3495d9bf9a7608c52f0af86fb194 "[SCSI] zfcp: Do not wait for SBALs on stopped queue", which had a new code path related to ZFCP_STATUS_ADAPTER_QDIOUP that took an early exit without a required lock being held. The problem occured when a special, non-SCSI I/O request was being submitted in process context, when the adapter's queues had been torn down. In this case the bug surfaced when the Fibre Channel port connection for a well-known address was closed during a concurrent adapter shut-down procedure, which is a rare constellation. This patch also fixes these warnings from the sparse tool (make C=1): drivers/s390/scsi/zfcp_qdio.c:224:12: warning: context imbalance in 'zfcp_qdio_sbal_check' - wrong count at exit drivers/s390/scsi/zfcp_qdio.c:244:5: warning: context imbalance in 'zfcp_qdio_sbal_get' - unexpected unlock Last but not least, we get rid of that crappy lock-unlock-lock sequence at the beginning of the critical section.

scsi: sched/wait: Add wait_event_lock_irq_timeout for TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE usage Short of reverting commit 00d909a10710 ("scsi: target: Make the session shutdown code also wait for commands that are being aborted") for v4.19, target-core needs a wait_event_t macro can be executed using TASK_UNINTERRUPTIBLE to function correctly with existing fabric drivers that expect to run with signals pending during session shutdown and active se_cmd I/O quiesce. The most notable is iscsi-target/iser-target, while ibmvscsi_tgt invokes session shutdown logic from userspace via configfs attribute that could also potentially have signals pending. So go ahead and introduce wait_event_lock_irq_timeout() to achieve this, and update + rename __wait_event_lock_irq_timeout() to make it accept 'state' as a parameter.

sched/wait: Standardize internal naming of wait-queue entries So the various wait-queue entry variables in include/linux/wait.h and kernel/sched/wait.c are named in a colorfully inconsistent way: wait_queue_entry_t *wait wait_queue_entry_t *__wait (even in plain C code!) wait_queue_entry_t *q (!) wait_queue_entry_t *new (making anyone who knows C++ cringe) wait_queue_entry_t *old I think part of the reason for the inconsistency is the constant apparent confusion about what a wait queue 'head' versus 'entry' is. ( Some of the documentation talks about a 'wait descriptor', which is the wait-queue entry itself - further adding to the confusion. ) The most common name is 'wait', but that in itself is somewhat ambiguous as well, as it does not really make it clear whether it's a wait-queue entry or head. To improve all this name the wait-queue entry structure parameters and variables consistently and push through this naming into all the wait.h and wait.c code: struct wait_queue_entry *wq_entry The 'wq_' prefix makes it easy to grep for, and we also use the opportunity to move away from the typedef to a plain 'struct' naming: in the kernel we typically reserve typedefs for cases where a C structure is really small and somewhat opaque - such as pte_t. wait-queue entries are neither small nor opaque, so use the more standard 'struct xxx_entry' list management code nomenclature instead. ( We don't touch external users, and we preserve the typedef as well for actual wait-queue users, to reduce unnecessary churn. ) Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>

sched/wait: Disambiguate wq_entry->task_list and wq_head->task_list naming So I've noticed a number of instances where it was not obvious from the code whether ->task_list was for a wait-queue head or a wait-queue entry. Furthermore, there's a number of wait-queue users where the lists are not for 'tasks' but other entities (poll tables, etc.), in which case the 'task_list' name is actively confusing. To clear this all up, name the wait-queue head and entry list structure fields unambiguously: struct wait_queue_head::task_list => ::head struct wait_queue_entry::task_list => ::entry For example, this code: rqw->wait.task_list.next != &wait->task_list ... is was pretty unclear (to me) what it's doing, while now it's written this way: rqw->wait.head.next != &wait->entry ... which makes it pretty clear that we are iterating a list until we see the head.

net: Avoid extra wakeups of threads blocked in wait_for_packet() In 2.6.25 we added UDP mem accounting. This unfortunatly added a penalty when a frame is transmitted, since we have at TX completion time to call sock_wfree() to perform necessary memory accounting. This calls sock_def_write_space() and utimately scheduler if any thread is waiting on the socket. Thread(s) waiting for an incoming frame was scheduled, then had to sleep again as event was meaningless. (All threads waiting on a socket are using same sk_sleep anchor) This adds lot of extra wakeups and increases latencies, as noted by Christoph Lameter, and slows down softirq handler. Reference : http://marc.info/?l=linux-netdev&m=124060437012283&w=2 Fortunatly, Davide Libenzi recently added concept of keyed wakeups into kernel, and particularly for sockets (see commit 37e5540b3c9d838eb20f2ca8ea2eb8072271e403 epoll keyed wakeups: make sockets use keyed wakeups) Davide goal was to optimize epoll, but this new wakeup infrastructure can help non epoll users as well, if they care to setup an appropriate handler. This patch introduces new DEFINE_WAIT_FUNC() helper and uses it in wait_for_packet(), so that only relevant event can wakeup a thread blocked in this function. Trace of function calls from bnx2 TX completion bnx2_poll_work() is : __kfree_skb() skb_release_head_state() sock_wfree() sock_def_write_space() __wake_up_sync_key() __wake_up_common() receiver_wake_function() : Stops here since thread is waiting for an INPUT Reported-by: Christoph Lameter <cl@linux.com> Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

sched/core: Add function to sample state of locked-down task A running task's state can be sampled in a consistent manner (for example, for diagnostic purposes) simply by invoking smp_call_function_single() on its CPU, which may be obtained using task_cpu(), then having the IPI handler verify that the desired task is in fact still running. However, if the task is not running, this sampling can in theory be done immediately and directly. In practice, the task might start running at any time, including during the sampling period. Gaining a consistent sample of a not-running task therefore requires that something be done to lock down the target task's state. This commit therefore adds a try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() function that invokes a specified function if the specified task can be locked down, returning true if successful and if the specified function returns true. Otherwise this function simply returns false. Given that the function passed to try_invoke_on_nonrunning_task() might be invoked with a runqueue lock held, that function had better be quite lightweight. The function is passed the target task's task_struct pointer and the argument passed to try_invoke_on_locked_down_task(), allowing easy access to task state and to a location for further variables to be passed in and out. Note that the specified function will be called even if the specified task is currently running. The function can use ->on_rq and task_curr() to quickly and easily determine the task's state, and can return false if this state is not to the function's liking. The caller of the try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() would then see the false return value, and could take appropriate action, for example, trying again later or sending an IPI if matters are more urgent. It is expected that use cases such as the RCU CPU stall warning code will simply return false if the task is currently running. However, there are use cases involving nohz_full CPUs where the specified function might instead fall back to an alternative sampling scheme that relies on heavier synchronization (such as memory barriers) in the target task.
