[PATCH 01/11] block: Stop abusing csd.list for fifo_time

[Frederic Weisbecker]

From: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

Block layer currently abuses rq->csd.list.next for storing fifo_time.
That is a terrible hack and completely unnecessary as well. Union
achieves the same space saving in a cleaner way.

[PATCH 02/11] block: Remove useless IPI struct initialization

[Frederic Weisbecker]

rq_fifo_clear() reset the csd.list through INIT_LIST_HEAD for no clear
purpose. The csd.list doesn't need to be initialized as a list head
because it's only ever used as a list node.

Lets remove this useless initialization.

[PATCH 03/11] block: Stop abusing rq->csd.list in blk-softirq

[Frederic Weisbecker]

From: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

Abusing rq->csd.list for a list of requests to complete is rather ugly.
We use rq->queuelist instead which is much cleaner. It is safe because
queuelist is used by the block layer only for requests waiting to be
submitted to a device. Thus it is unused when irq reports the request IO
is finished.

[PATCH 04/11] smp: Iterate functions through llist_for_each_entry_safe()

[Frederic Weisbecker]

From: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

The IPI function llist iteration is open coded. Lets simplify this
with using an llist iterator.

Also we want to keep the iteration safe against possible
csd.llist->next value reuse from the IPI handler. At least the block
subsystem used to do such things so lets stay careful and use
llist_for_each_entry_safe().

[PATCH 07/11] smp: Consolidate the various smp_call_function_single() declensions

[Frederic Weisbecker]

__smp_call_function_single() and smp_call_function_single() share some
code that can be factorized: execute inline when the target is local,
check if the target is online, lock the csd, call generic_exec_single().

Lets move the common parts to generic_exec_single().

[PATCH 08/11] smp: Move __smp_call_function_single() below its safe version

[Frederic Weisbecker]

Move this function closer to __smp_call_function_single(). These functions
have very similar behavior and should be displayed in the same block
for clarity.

[PATCH 09/11] watchdog: Simplify a little the IPI call

[Frederic Weisbecker]

In order to remotely restart the watchdog hrtimer, update_timers()
allocates a csd on the stack and pass it to __smp_call_function_single().

There is no partcular need, however, for a specific csd here. Lets
simplify that a little by calling smp_call_function_single()
which can already take care of the csd allocation by itself.

[PATCH 10/11] smp: Remove wait argument from __smp_call_function_single()

[Frederic Weisbecker]

The main point of calling __smp_call_function_single() is to send
an IPI in a pure asynchronous way. By embedding a csd in an object,
a caller can send the IPI without waiting for a previous one to complete
as is required by smp_call_function_single() for example. As such,
sending this kind of IPI can be safe even when irqs are disabled.

This flexibility comes at the expense of the caller who then needs to
synchronize the csd lifecycle by himself and make sure that IPIs on a
single csd are serialized.

This is how __smp_call_function_single() works when wait = 0 and this
usecase is relevant.

Now there don't seem to be any usecase with wait = 1 that can't be
covered by smp_call_function_single() instead, which is safer. Lets look
at the two possible scenario:

1) The user calls __smp_call_function_single(wait = 1) on a csd embedded
   in an object. It looks like a nice and convenient pattern at the first
   sight because we can then retrieve the object from the IPI handler easily.

   But actually it is a waste of memory space in the object since the csd
   can be allocated from the stack by smp_call_function_single(wait = 1)
   and the object can be passed an the IPI argument.

   Besides that, embedding the csd in an object is more error prone
   because the caller must take care of the serialization of the IPIs
   for this csd.

2) The user calls __smp_call_function_single(wait = 1) on a csd that
   is allocated on the stack. It's ok but smp_call_function_single()
   can do it as well and it already takes care of the allocation on the
   stack. Again it's more simple and less error prone.

Therefore, using the underscore prepend API version with wait = 1
is a bad pattern and a sign that the caller can do safer and more
simple.

There was a single user of that which has just been converted.
So lets remove this option to discourage further users.

[PATCH 11/11] smp: Rename __smp_call_function_single() to smp_call_function_single_async()

[Frederic Weisbecker]

The name __smp_call_function_single() doesn't tell much about the
properties of this function, especially when compared to
smp_call_function_single().

The comments above the implementation are also misleading. The main
point of this function is actually not to be able to embed the csd
in an object. This is actually a requirement that result from the
purpose of this function which is to raise an IPI asynchronously.

As such it can be called with interrupts disabled. And this feature
comes at the cost of the caller who then needs to serialize the
IPIs on this csd.

Lets rename the function and enhance the comments so that they reflect
these properties.

I initially planned to push this tree to Ingo because I have some nohz patches
that will depend on this set.

But there is indeed quite some block changes there. So I should let these go
through your tree to avoid bad conflicts. If you never rebase your tree I can
work on top if it.

Thanks!

Yeah, plus most of the original singe call function (at least the part 
where it didn't suck big time) kernel/smp.c functionality in this area 
came in through me/block to begin with as well.

I'll queue it up for 3.15.

[PATCH 04/11] smp: Iterate functions through llist_for_each_entry_safe()

[Frederic Weisbecker]

From: Jan Kara <jack@suse.cz>

The IPI function llist iteration is open coded. Lets simplify this
with using an llist iterator.

Also we want to keep the iteration safe against possible
csd.llist->next value reuse from the IPI handler. At least the block
subsystem used to do such things so lets stay careful and use
llist_for_each_entry_safe().
