As a preparation to use simple wait queues for completions: - Provide swake_up_all_locked() to support complete_all() - Make __prepare_to_swait() public available This is done to enable the usage of complete() within truly atomic contexts on a PREEMPT_RT enabled kernel. Signed-off-by:

Since swait basically implemented exclusive waits only, make sure the API reflects that. $ git grep -l -e "\<swake_up\>" -e "\<swait_event[^ (]*" -e "\<prepare_to_swait\>" | while read file; do sed -i -e 's/\<swake_up\>/&_one/g' -e 's/\<swait_event[^ (]*/&_exclusive/g' -e 's/\<prepare_to_swait\>/&_exclusive/g' $file; done With a few manual touch-ups.

Linus noted that swait basically implements exclusive mode -- because swake_up() only wakes a single waiter. And because of that it should take care to properly deal with the interruptible case. In short, the problem is that swake_up() can race with a signal. In this this case it is possible the swake_up() 'wakes' the waiter that is already on the way out because it just got a signal and the wakeup gets lost. The normal wait code is very careful and avoids this situation, make sure we do too. Copy the exact exclusive semantics from wait. Suggested-by:

Do the following cleanups and simplifications: - sched/sched.h already includes <asm/paravirt.h>, so no need to include it in sched/core.c again. - order the <linux/sched/*.h> headers alphabetically - add all <linux/sched/*.h> headers to kernel/sched/sched.h - remove all unnecessary includes from the .c files that are already included in kernel/sched/sched.h. Finally, make all scheduler .c files use a single common header: #include "sched.h" ... which now contains a union of the relied upon headers. This makes the various .c files easier to read and easier to handle.

A good number of small style inconsistencies have accumulated in the scheduler core, so do a pass over them to harmonize all these details: - fix speling in comments, - use curly braces for multi-line statements, - remove unnecessary parentheses from integer literals, - capitalize consistently, - remove stray newlines, - add comments where necessary, - remove invalid/unnecessary comments, - align structure definitions and other data types vertically, - add missing newlines for increased readability, - fix vertical tabulation where it's misaligned, - harmonize preprocessor conditional block labeling and vertical alignment, - remove line-breaks where they uglify the code, - add newline after local variable definitions, No change in functionality: md5: 1191fa0a890cfa8132156d2959d7e9e2 built-in.o.before.asm 1191fa0a890cfa8132156d2959d7e9e2 built-in.o.after.asm Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Mike Galbraith <efault@gmx.de> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Signed-off-by:

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. Reviewed-by:

Steven Rostedt reported a potential race in RCU core because of swake_up(): CPU0 CPU1 ---- ---- __call_rcu_core() { spin_lock(rnp_root) need_wake = __rcu_start_gp() { rcu_start_gp_advanced() { gp_flags = FLAG_INIT } } rcu_gp_kthread() { swait_event_interruptible(wq, gp_flags & FLAG_INIT) { spin_lock(q->lock) *fetch wq->task_list here! * list_add(wq->task_list, q->task_list) spin_unlock(q->lock); *fetch old value of gp_flags here * spin_unlock(rnp_root) rcu_gp_kthread_wake() { swake_up(wq) { swait_active(wq) { list_empty(wq->task_list) } * return false * if (condition) * false * schedule(); In this case, a wakeup is missed, which could cause the rcu_gp_kthread waits for a long time. The reason of this is that we do a lockless swait_active() check in swake_up(). To fix this, we can either 1) add a smp_mb() in swake_up() before swait_active() to provide the proper order or 2) simply remove the swait_active() in swake_up(). The solution 2 not only fixes this problem but also keeps the swait and wait API as close as possible, as wake_up() doesn't provide a full barrier and doesn't do a lockless check of the wait queue either. Moreover, there are users already using swait_active() to do their quick checks for the wait queues, so it make less sense that swake_up() and swake_up_all() do this on their own. This patch then removes the lockless swait_active() check in swake_up() and swake_up_all(). Reported-by:Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by:

The existing wait queue support has support for custom wake up call backs, wake flags, wake key (passed to call back) and exclusive flags that allow wakers to be tagged as exclusive, for limiting the number of wakers. In a lot of cases, none of these features are used, and hence we can benefit from a slimmed down version that lowers memory overhead and reduces runtime overhead. The concept originated from -rt, where waitqueues are a constant source of trouble, as we can't convert the head lock to a raw spinlock due to fancy and long lasting callbacks. With the removal of custom callbacks, we can use a raw lock for queue list manipulations, hence allowing the simple wait support to be used in -rt. [Patch is from PeterZ which is based on Thomas version. Commit message is written by Paul G. Daniel: - Fixed some compile issues - Added non-lazy implementation of swake_up_locked as suggested by Boqun Feng.] Originally-by:
