On callback overload, we want to force quiescent state immediately,
for the first and second fqs. Enforce the same, by including
RCU_GP_FLAG_OVLD flag, in fqsstart check.

Good catch!

But what did you do to verify that this change does the right thing?

I haven't done a runtime verification of this code path; I posted this, 
based on review of this code.

My concern is that under overload, the FQS scans would happen continuously
rather than accelerating only the first such scan in a given grace period.
This would of course result in a CPU-bound grace-period kthread, which
users might not be all that happy with.

Or am I missing something subtle that prevents this?

But yes, it does look like the current mainline code fails to do the
first scan immediately, so again, good catch!

							Thanx, Paul

Looks like under overload, only the first and second scans are accelerated?

     gf = 0;
     if (first_gp_fqs) {
          first_gp_fqs = false;
           gf = rcu_state.cbovld ? RCU_GP_FLAG_OVLD : 0;
     }

Very good, it does sound like you understand this, and it matches my
analysis and passes light testing, so I queued this one.  I did improve
the commit log, please check below.  The added detail is helpful to people
(including ourselves, by the way) who might need to look at this commit
some time in the future.

If you have an x86 system lying around, running rcutorture is quite
straightforward.  Non-x86 systems can also run rcutorture, if nothing
else by using modprobe and rmmod as described here:

https://paulmck.livejournal.com/57769.html

The scripting described in the latter part of this document has worked
on ARMv8 and PowerPC, and might still work for all I know.

						Thanx, Paul

commit 9482524d7dd0aea5d32a6efa2979223eea07c029
Author: Neeraj Upadhyay <neeraju@codeaurora.org>
Date:   Mon Jun 22 00:07:27 2020 +0530

    rcu/tree: Force quiescent state on callback overload
    
    On callback overload, it is necessary to quickly detect idle CPUs,
    and rcu_gp_fqs_check_wake() checks for this condition.  Unfortunately,
    the code following the call to this function does not repeat this check,
    which means that in reality no actual quiescent-state forcing, instead
    only a couple of quick and pointless wakeups at the beginning of the
    grace period.
    
    This commit therefore adds a check for the RCU_GP_FLAG_OVLD flag in
    the post-wakeup "if" statement in rcu_gp_fqs_loop().

Thanks; patch looks good; I will try to put more efforts on commit log
for future patches.

I will set it up at my end; the livejournal is pretty detailed! Thanks
