locking/atomic: treewide: use raw_atomic*_()

2023-06-05T07:57:20+00:00

Now that we have raw_atomic*_() definitions, there's no need to use
arch_atomic*_() definitions outside of the low-level atomic
definitions.

Move treewide users of arch_atomic*_() over to the equivalent
raw_atomic*_().

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

context_tracking: Fix noinstr vs KASAN

2023-01-13T10:48:18+00:00

Low level noinstr context-tracking code is calling out to instrumented
code on KASAN:

  vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: __ct_user_enter+0x72: call to __kasan_check_write() leaves .noinstr.text section
  vmlinux.o: warning: objtool: __ct_user_exit+0x47: call to __kasan_check_write() leaves .noinstr.text section

Use even lower level atomic methods to avoid the instrumentation.

MAINTAINERS: Add Paul as context tracking maintainer

2022-07-05T20:33:00+00:00

Since most of the bits have been imported from kernel/rcu/tree.c and
now that the context tracking code is tightly linked to RCU, add Paul
as a context tracking maintainer.

Also update the context tracking file header accordingly.

context_tracking: Convert state to atomic_t

2022-07-05T20:33:00+00:00

Context tracking's state and dynticks counter are going to be merged
in a single field so that both updates can happen atomically and at the
same time. Prepare for that with converting the state into an atomic_t.

rcu/context-tracking: Remove unused and/or unecessary middle functions

2022-07-05T20:33:00+00:00

Some eqs functions are now only used internally by context tracking, so
their public declarations can be removed.

Also middle functions such as rcu_user_*() and rcu_idle_*()
which now directly call to rcu_eqs_enter() and rcu_eqs_exit() can be
wiped out as well.

rcu/context-tracking: Move RCU-dynticks internal functions to context_tracking

2022-07-05T20:32:59+00:00

Move the core RCU eqs/dynticks functions to context tracking so that
we can later merge all that code within context tracking.

rcu/context-tracking: Move deferred nocb resched to context tracking

2022-07-05T20:32:59+00:00

To prepare for migrating the RCU eqs accounting code to context tracking,
split the last-resort deferred nocb resched from rcu_user_enter() and
move it into a separate call from context tracking.

rcu/context_tracking: Move dynticks_nmi_nesting to context tracking

The RCU eqs tracking is going to be performed by the context tracking
subsystem. The related nesting counters thus need to be moved to the
