Linus Torvalds 3ba7dfb8da RCU pull request for v6.15
This pull request contains the following branches:
 
 docs.2025.02.04a:
  - Add broken-timing possibility to stallwarn.rst.
  - Improve discussion of this_cpu_ptr(), add raw_cpu_ptr().
  - Document self-propagating callbacks.
  - Point call_srcu() to call_rcu() for detailed memory ordering.
  - Add CONFIG_RCU_LAZY delays to call_rcu() kernel-doc header.
  - Clarify RCU_LAZY and RCU_LAZY_DEFAULT_OFF help text.
  - Remove references to old grace-period-wait primitives.
 
 srcu.2025.02.05a:
  - Introduce srcu_read_{un,}lock_fast(), which is similar to
    srcu_read_{un,}lock_lite(): avoid smp_mb()s in lock and unlock at the
    cost of calling synchronize_rcu() in synchronize_srcu(). Moreover, by
    returning the percpu offset of the counter at srcu_read_lock_fast()
    time, srcu_read_unlock_fast() can save extra pointer dereferencing,
    which makes it faster than srcu_read_{un,}lock_lite().
    srcu_read_{un,}lock_fast() are intended to replace
    rcu_read_{un,}lock_trace() if possible.
 
 torture.2025.02.05a:
  - Add get_torture_init_jiffies() to return the start time of the test.
  - Add a test_boost_holdoff module parameter to allow delaying boosting
    tests when building rcutorture as built-in.
  - Add grace period sequence number logging at the beginning and end of
    failure/close-call results.
  - Switch to hexadecimal for the expedited grace period sequence number
    in the rcu_exp_grace_period trace point.
  - Make cur_ops->format_gp_seqs take buffer length.
  - Move RCU_TORTURE_TEST_{CHK_RDR_STATE,LOG_CPU} to bool.
  - Complain when invalid SRCU reader_flavor is specified.
  - Add FORCE_NEED_SRCU_NMI_SAFE Kconfig for testing, which forces SRCU
    uses atomics even when percpu ops are NMI safe, and use the Kconfig
    for SRCU lockdep testing.
 
 misc.2025.03.04a:
  - Split rcu_report_exp_cpu_mult() mask parameter and use for tracing.
  - Remove READ_ONCE() for rdp->gpwrap access in __note_gp_changes().
  - Fix get_state_synchronize_rcu_full() GP-start detection.
  - Move RCU Tasks self-tests to core_initcall().
  - Print segment lengths in show_rcu_nocb_gp_state().
  - Make RCU watch ct_kernel_exit_state() warning.
  - Flush console log from kernel_power_off().
  - rcutorture: Allow a negative value for nfakewriters.
  - rcu: Update TREE05.boot to test normal synchronize_rcu().
  - rcu: Use _full() API to debug synchronize_rcu().
 
 lazypreempt.2025.03.04a: Make RCU handle PREEMPT_LAZY better:
  - Fix header guard for rcu_all_qs().
  - rcu: Rename PREEMPT_AUTO to PREEMPT_LAZY.
  - Update __cond_resched comment about RCU quiescent states.
  - Handle unstable rdp in rcu_read_unlock_strict().
  - Handle quiescent states for PREEMPT_RCU=n, PREEMPT_COUNT=y.
  - osnoise: Provide quiescent states.
  - Adjust rcutorture with possible PREEMPT_RCU=n && PREEMPT_COUNT=y
    combination.
  - Limit PREEMPT_RCU configurations.
  - Make rcutorture senario TREE07 and senario TREE10 use PREEMPT_LAZY=y.
