The setup/remove_state/instance() functions in the hotplug core code are
serialized against concurrent CPU hotplug, but unfortunately not serialized
against themself.
As a consequence a concurrent invocation of these function results in
corruption of the callback machinery because two instances try to invoke
callbacks on remote cpus at the same time. This results in missing callback
invocations and initiator threads waiting forever on the completion.
The obvious solution to replace get_cpu_online() with cpu_hotplug_begin()
is not possible because at least one callsite calls into these functions
from a get_online_cpu() locked region.
Extend the protection scope of the cpuhp_state_mutex from solely protecting
the state arrays to cover the callback invocation machinery as well.

Since the change in commit:
fd7a4bed18 ("sched, rt: Convert switched_{from, to}_rt() / prio_changed_rt() to balance callbacks")
... we don't reschedule a task under certain circumstances:
Lets say task-A, SCHED_OTHER, is running on CPU0 (and it may run only on
CPU0) and holds a PI lock. This task is removed from the CPU because it
used up its time slice and another SCHED_OTHER task is running. Task-B on
CPU1 runs at RT priority and asks for the lock owned by task-A. This
results in a priority boost for task-A. Task-B goes to sleep until the
lock has been made available. Task-A is already runnable (but not active),
so it receives no wake up.
The reality now is that task-A gets on the CPU once the scheduler decides
to remove the current task despite the fact that a high priority task is
enqueued and waiting. This may take a long time.
The desired behaviour is that CPU0 immediately reschedules after the
priority boost which made task-A the task with the lowest priority.

RCU_EXPEDITE_BOOT should speed up the boot process by enforcing
synchronize_rcu_expedited() instead of synchronize_rcu() during the boot
process. There should be no reason why one does not want this and there
is no need worry about real time latency at this point.
Therefore make it default.
Note that users wishing to avoid expediting entirely, for example when
bringing up new hardware possibly having flaky IPIs, can use the
rcu_normal boot parameter to override boot-time expediting.

Initially I wanted to remove mcheck_cpu_init() from identify_cpu() and let it
become an independent early hotplug callback. The main problem here was that
the init on the boot CPU may happen too late
(device_initcall_sync(mcheck_init_device)) and nobody wanted to risk receiving
and MCE event at boot time leading to a shutdown (if the MCE feature is not yet
enabled).
Here is attempt two: the timming stays as-is but the ordering of the functions
is changed:
- mcheck_cpu_init() (which is run from identify_cpu()) will setup the timer
struct but won't fire the timer. This is moved to CPU_ONLINE since its
cleanup part is in CPU_DOWN_PREPARE. So if it is okay to stop the timer early
in the shutdown phase, it should be okay to start it late in the bring up phase.
- CPU_DOWN_PREPARE disables the MCE feature flags for !INTEL CPUs in
mce_disable_cpu(). If a failure occures it would be re-enabled on all vendor
CPUs (including Intel where it was not disabled during shutdown). To keep this
working I am moving it to CPU_ONLINE. smp_call_function_single() is dropped
beause the notifier runs nowdays on the target CPU.
- CPU_ONLINE is invoking mce_device_create() + mce_threshold_create_device()
but its cleanup part is in CPU_DEAD (mce_threshold_remove_device() and
mce_device_remove()). In order to keep this symmetrical I am moving the clean
up from CPU_DEAD to CPU_DOWN_PREPARE.

This DMA driver is used by 8250-omap on DRA7-evm. There is one
requirement that is to pause a transfer. This is currently used on the RX
side. It is possible that the UART HW aborted the RX (UART's RX-timeout)
but the DMA controller starts the transfer shortly after.
Before we can manually purge the FIFO we need to pause the transfer,
check how many bytes it already received and terminate the transfer
without it making any progress.
From testing on the TX side it seems that it is possible that we invoke
pause once the transfer has completed which is indicated by the missing
CCR_ENABLE bit but before the interrupt has been noticed. In that case the
interrupt will come even after disabling it.
The AM572x manual says that we have to wait for the CCR_RD_ACTIVE &
CCR_WR_ACTIVE bits to be gone before programming it again here is the
drain loop. Also it looks like without the drain the TX-transfer makes
sometimes progress.
One note: The pause + resume combo is broken because after resume the
the complete transfer will be programmed again. That means the already
transferred bytes (until the pause event) will be sent again. This is
currently not important for my UART user because it does only pause +
terminate.
v3…v4:
- update subject line.
v2…v3:
- rephrase the comment based on Russell's information / feedback.
v1…v2:
- move the drain loop into omap_dma_drain_chan() instead of having it
twice.
- allow pause only for DMA_DEV_TO_MEM transfers if non-cyclic. Add a
comment why DMA_MEM_TO_DEV not allowed.
- clear pause on terminate_all. Otherwise pause() + terminate_all()
will keep the pause bit set and we can't pause the following
transfer.

This patch moves the wakeup_process() invocation so it is not done under
the ipc global lock by making use of a lockless wake_q. With this change,
the waiter is woken up once the message has been assigned and it does not
need to loop on SMP if the message points to NULL. In the signal case we
still need to check the pointer under the lock to verify the state.
This change should also avoid the introduction of preempt_disable() in -RT
which avoids a busy-loop which pools for the NULL -> !NULL change if the
waiter has a higher priority compared to the waker.
By making use of wake_qs, the logic of sysv msg queues is greatly
simplified (and very well suited as we can batch lockless wakeups),
particularly around the lockless receive algorithm.

The resent conversion of the cpu hotplug support in the uncore driver
introduced a regression due to the way the callbacks are invoked at
initialization time.
The old code called the prepare/starting/online function on each online cpu
as a block. The new code registers the hotplug callbacks in the core for
each state. The core invokes the callbacks at each registration on all
online cpus.
The code implicitely relied on the prepare/starting/online callbacks being
called as combo on a particular cpu, which was not obvious and completely
undocumented.
The resulting subtle wreckage happens due to the way how the uncore code
manages shared data structures for cpus which share an uncore resource in
hardware. The sharing is determined in the cpu starting callback, but the
prepare callback allocates per cpu data for the upcoming cpu because
potential sharing is unknown at this point. If the starting callback finds
a online cpu which shares the hardware resource it takes a refcount on the
percpu data of that cpu and puts the own data structure into a
'free_at_online' pointer of that shared data structure. The online callback
frees that.
With the old model this worked because in a starting callback only one non
unused structure (the one of the starting cpu) was available. The new code
allocates the data structures for all cpus when the prepare callback is
registered.
Now the starting function iterates through all online cpus and looks for a
data structure (skipping its own) which has a matching hardware id. The id
member of the data structure is initialized to 0, but the hardware id can
be 0 as well. The resulting wreckage is:
CPU0 finds a matching id on CPU1, takes a refcount on CPU1 data and puts
its own data structure into CPU1s data structure to be freed.
CPU1 skips CPU0 because the data structure is its allegedly unsued own.
It finds a matching id on CPU2, takes a refcount on CPU1 data and puts
its own data structure into CPU2s data structure to be freed.
....
Now the online callbacks are invoked.
CPU0 has a pointer to CPU1s data and frees the original CPU0 data. So
far so good.
CPU1 has a pointer to CPU2s data and frees the original CPU1 data, which
is still referenced by CPU0 ---> Booom
So there are two issues to be solved here:
1) The id field must be initialized at allocation time to a value which
cannot be a valid hardware id, i.e. -1
This prevents the above scenario, but now CPU1 and CPU2 both stick their
own data structure into the free_at_online pointer of CPU0. So we leak
CPU1s data structure.
2) Fix the memory leak described in #1
Instead of having a single pointer, use a hlist to enqueue the
superflous data structures which are then freed by the first cpu
invoking the online callback.
Ideally we should know the sharing _before_ invoking the prepare callback,
but that's way beyond the scope of this bug fix.

I have here a FPGA behind PCIe which exports SRAM which I use for
pstore. Now it seems that the FPGA no longer supports cmpxchg based
updates and writes back 0xff…ff and returns the same. This leads to
crash during crash rendering pstore useless.
Since I doubt that there is much benefit from using cmpxchg() here, I am
dropping this atomic access and use the spinlock based version.

A basic rmmod ramoops segfaults. Let's see why.
Since commit 34f0ec82e0 ("pstore: Correct the max_dump_cnt clearing of
ramoops") sets ->max_dump_cnt to zero before looping over ->przs but we
didn't use it before that either.
And since commit ee1d267423 ("pstore: add pstore unregister") we free
that memory on rmmod.
But even then, we looped until a NULL pointer or ERR. I don't see where
it is ensured that the last member is NULL. Let's try this instead:
simply error recovery and free. Clean up in error case where resources
were allocated. And then, in the free path, rely on ->max_dump_cnt in
the free path.
