locking/mutex: Fix mutex debug call and ww_mutex documentation 
The following commit:

  08295b3b5b ("Implement an algorithm choice for Wound-Wait mutexes")

introduced a reference in the documentation to a function that was
removed in an earlier commit.

It also forgot to remove a call to debug_mutex_add_waiter() which is now
unconditionally called by __mutex_add_waiter().

Fix those bugs.

locking: Implement an algorithm choice for Wound-Wait mutexes 
The current Wound-Wait mutex algorithm is actually not Wound-Wait but
Wait-Die. Implement also Wound-Wait as a per-ww-class choice. Wound-Wait
is, contrary to Wait-Die a preemptive algorithm and is known to generate
fewer backoffs. Testing reveals that this is true if the
number of simultaneous contending transactions is small.
As the number of simultaneous contending threads increases, Wait-Wound
becomes inferior to Wait-Die in terms of elapsed time.
Possibly due to the larger number of held locks of sleeping transactions.

Update documentation and callers.

Add kernel-doc for mutex_lock_killable() and mutex_lock_io().  Reword the
kernel-doc for mutex_lock_interruptible().

locking/mutex: Fix lockdep_assert_held() fail 
In commit:

  659cf9f582 ("locking/ww_mutex: Optimize ww-mutexes by waking at most one waiter for backoff when acquiring the lock")

I replaced a comment with a lockdep_assert_held(). However it turns out
we hide that lock from lockdep for hysterical raisins, which results
in the assertion always firing.

Remove the old debug code as lockdep will easily spot the abuse it was
meant to catch, which will make the lock visible to lockdep and make
the assertion work as intended.

locking/mutex, sched/wait: Add mutex_lock_io() 
We sometimes end up propagating IO blocking through mutexes; however,
because there currently is no way of annotating mutex sleeps as
iowait, there are cases where iowait and /proc/stat:procs_blocked
report misleading numbers obscuring the actual state of the system.

This patch adds mutex_lock_io() so that mutex sleeps can be marked as
iowait in those cases.

locking/ww_mutex: Optimize ww-mutexes by yielding to other waiters from optimistic spin 
Lock stealing is less beneficial for w/w mutexes since we may just end up
backing off if we stole from a thread with an earlier acquire stamp that
already holds another w/w mutex that we also need. So don't spin
optimistically unless we are sure that there is no other waiter that might
cause us to back off.

Median timings taken of a contention-heavy GPU workload:

Before:

  real    0m52.946s
  user    0m7.272s
  sys     1m55.964s

After:

  real    0m53.086s
  user    0m7.360s
  sys     1m46.204s

This particular workload still spends 20%-25% of CPU in mutex_spin_on_owner
according to perf, but my attempts to further reduce this spinning based on
various heuristics all lead to an increase in measured wall time despite
the decrease in sys time.

locking/ww_mutex: Re-check ww->ctx in the inner optimistic spin loop 
In the following scenario, thread #1 should back off its attempt to lock
ww1 and unlock ww2 (assuming the acquire context stamps are ordered
accordingly).

    Thread #0               Thread #1
    ---------               ---------
                            successfully lock ww2
    set ww1->base.owner
                            attempt to lock ww1
                            confirm ww1->ctx == NULL
                            enter mutex_spin_on_owner
    set ww1->ctx

What was likely to happen previously is:

    attempt to lock ww2
    refuse to spin because
      ww2->ctx != NULL
    schedule()
                            detect thread #0 is off CPU
                            stop optimistic spin
                            return -EDEADLK
                            unlock ww2
                            wakeup thread #0
    lock ww2

Now, we are more likely to see:

                            detect ww1->ctx != NULL
                            stop optimistic spin
                            return -EDEADLK
                            unlock ww2
    successfully lock ww2

... because thread #1 will stop its optimistic spin as soon as possible.

The whole scenario is quite unlikely, since it requires thread #1 to get
between thread #0 setting the owner and setting the ctx. But since we're
idling here anyway, the additional check is basically free.

Found by inspection.

locking/mutex: Improve inlining 
Instead of inlining __mutex_lock_common() 5 times, once for each
{state,ww} variant. Reduce this to two, ww and !ww.

Then add __always_inline to mutex_optimistic_spin(), so that that will
get inlined all 4 remaining times, for all {waiter,ww} variants.

locking/ww_mutex: Optimize ww-mutexes by waking at most one waiter for backoff when acquiring the lock 
The wait list is sorted by stamp order, and the only waiting task that may
have to back off is the first waiter with a context.

The regular slow path does not have to wake any other tasks at all, since
all other waiters that would have to back off were either woken up when
the waiter was added to the list, or detected the condition before they
added themselves.

locking/ww_mutex: Notify waiters that have to back off while adding tasks to wait list 
While adding our task as a waiter, detect if another task should back off
because of us.

With this patch, we establish the invariant that the wait list contains
at most one (sleeping) waiter with ww_ctx->acquired > 0, and this waiter
will be the first waiter with a context.

Since only waiters with ww_ctx->acquired > 0 have to back off, this allows
us to be much more economical with wakeups.

locking/ww_mutex: Add waiters in stamp order 
Add regular waiters in stamp order. Keep adding waiters that have no
context in FIFO order and take care not to starve them.

While adding our task as a waiter, back off if we detect that there is
a waiter with a lower stamp in front of us.

Make sure to call lock_contended even when we back off early.

For w/w mutexes, being first in the wait list is only stable when
taking the lock without a context. Therefore, the purpose of the first
flag is split into two: 'first' remains to indicate whether we want to
spin optimistically, while 'handoff' indicates that we should be
prepared to accept a handoff.

For w/w locking with a context, we always accept handoffs after the
first schedule(), to handle the following sequence of events:

 1. Task #0 unlocks and hands off to Task #2 which is first in line

 2. Task #1 adds itself in front of Task #2

 3. Task #2 wakes up and must accept the handoff even though it is no
    longer first in line

locking/ww_mutex: Set use_ww_ctx even when locking without a context 
We will add a new field to struct mutex_waiter.  This field must be
initialized for all waiters if any waiter uses the ww_use_ctx path.

So there is a trade-off: Keep ww_mutex locking without a context on
the faster non-use_ww_ctx path, at the cost of adding the
initialization to all mutex locks (including non-ww_mutexes), or avoid
the additional cost for non-ww_mutex locks, at the cost of adding
additional checks to the use_ww_ctx path.

We take the latter choice.  It may be worth eliminating the users of
ww_mutex_lock(lock, NULL), but there are a lot of them.

locking/mutex: Fix mutex handoff 
While reviewing the ww_mutex patches, I noticed that it was still
possible to (incorrectly) succeed for (incorrect) code like:

	mutex_lock(&a);
	mutex_lock(&a);

This was possible if the second mutex_lock() would block (as expected)
but then receive a spurious wakeup. At that point it would find itself
at the front of the queue, request a handoff and instantly claim
ownership and continue, since owner would point to itself.

Avoid this scenario and simplify the code by introducing a third low
bit to signal handoff pickup. So once we request handoff, unlock
clears the handoff bit and sets the pickup bit along with the new
owner.

This also removes the need for the .handoff argument to
__mutex_trylock(), since that becomes superfluous with PICKUP.

In order to guarantee enough low bits, ensure task_struct alignment is
at least L1_CACHE_BYTES (which seems a good ideal regardless).

sched/core: Remove set_task_state() 
This is a nasty interface and setting the state of a foreign task must
not be done. As of the following commit:

  be628be095 ("bcache: Make gc wakeup sane, remove set_task_state()")

... everyone in the kernel calls set_task_state() with current, allowing
the helper to be removed.

However, as the comment indicates, it is still around for those archs
where computing current is more expensive than using a pointer, at least
in theory. An important arch that is affected is arm64, however this has
been addressed now [1] and performance is up to par making no difference
with either calls.

Of all the callers, if any, it's the locking bits that would care most
about this -- ie: we end up passing a tsk pointer to a lot of the lock
slowpath, and setting ->state on that. The following numbers are based
on two tests: a custom ad-hoc microbenchmark that just measures
latencies (for ~65 million calls) between get_task_state() vs
get_current_state().

Secondly for a higher overview, an unlink microbenchmark was used,
which pounds on a single file with open, close,unlink combos with
increasing thread counts (up to 4x ncpus). While the workload is quite
unrealistic, it does contend a lot on the inode mutex or now rwsem.

runs. In the case of x86, there was a decent amount of variation in the
latency runs, but always within a 20 to 50ms increase), ppc was more constant.

kernel/locking: Compute 'current' directly 
This patch effectively replaces the tsk pointer dereference
(which is obviously == current), to directly use get_current()
macro. This is to make the removal of setting foreign task
states smoother and painfully obvious. Performance win on some
archs such as x86-64 and ppc64. On a microbenchmark that calls
set_task_state() vs set_current_state() and an inode rwsem
pounding benchmark doing unlink:

sched/wake_q: Rename WAKE_Q to DEFINE_WAKE_Q 
Currently the wake_q data structure is defined by the WAKE_Q() macro.
This macro, however, looks like a function doing something as "wake" is
a verb. Even checkpatch.pl was confused as it reported warnings like

  WARNING: Missing a blank line after declarations
  #548: FILE: kernel/futex.c:3665:
  +	int ret;
  +	WAKE_Q(wake_q);

This patch renames the WAKE_Q() macro to DEFINE_WAKE_Q() which clarifies
what the macro is doing and eliminates the checkpatch.pl warnings.

locking/mutex: Restructure wait loop 
Doesn't really matter yet, but pull the HANDOFF and trylock out from
under the wait_lock.

The intention is to add an optimistic spin loop here, which requires
we do not hold the wait_lock, so shuffle code around in preparation.

Also clarify the purpose of taking the wait_lock in the wait loop, its
tempting to want to avoid it altogether, but the cancellation cases
need to to avoid losing wakeups.

locking/mutex: Add lock handoff to avoid starvation 
Implement lock handoff to avoid lock starvation.

Lock starvation is possible because mutex_lock() allows lock stealing,
where a running (or optimistic spinning) task beats the woken waiter
to the acquire.

Lock stealing is an important performance optimization because waiting
for a waiter to wake up and get runtime can take a significant time,
during which everyboy would stall on the lock.

The down-side is of course that it allows for starvation.

This patch has the waiter requesting a handoff if it fails to acquire
the lock upon waking. This re-introduces some of the wait time,
because once we do a handoff we have to wait for the waiter to wake up
again.

A future patch will add a round of optimistic spinning to attempt to
alleviate this penalty, but if that turns out to not be enough, we can
add a counter and only request handoff after multiple failed wakeups.

There are a few tricky implementation details:

 - accepting a handoff must only be done in the wait-loop. Since the
   handoff condition is owner == current, it can easily cause
   recursive locking trouble.

 - accepting the handoff must be careful to provide the ACQUIRE
   semantics.

 - having the HANDOFF bit set on unlock requires care, we must not
   clear the owner.

 - we must be careful to not leave HANDOFF set after we've acquired
   the lock. The tricky scenario is setting the HANDOFF bit on an
   unlocked mutex.

locking/mutex: Rework mutex::owner 
The current mutex implementation has an atomic lock word and a
non-atomic owner field.

This disparity leads to a number of issues with the current mutex code
as it means that we can have a locked mutex without an explicit owner
(because the owner field has not been set, or already cleared).

This leads to a number of weird corner cases, esp. between the
optimistic spinning and debug code. Where the optimistic spinning
code needs the owner field updated inside the lock region, the debug
code is more relaxed because the whole lock is serialized by the
wait_lock.

Also, the spinning code itself has a few corner cases where we need to
deal with a held lock without an owner field.

Furthermore, it becomes even more of a problem when trying to fix
starvation cases in the current code. We end up stacking special case
on special case.

To solve this rework the basic mutex implementation to be a single
atomic word that contains the owner and uses the low bits for extra
state.

This matches how PI futexes and rt_mutex already work. By having the
owner an integral part of the lock state a lot of the problems
dissapear and we get a better option to deal with starvation cases,
direct owner handoff.

Changing the basic mutex does however invalidate all the arch specific
mutex code; this patch leaves that unused in-place, a later patch will
remove that.

locking/ww_mutex: Report recursive ww_mutex locking early 
Recursive locking for ww_mutexes was originally conceived as an
exception. However, it is heavily used by the DRM atomic modesetting
code. Currently, the recursive deadlock is checked after we have queued
up for a busy-spin and as we never release the lock, we spin until
kicked, whereupon the deadlock is discovered and reported.

A simple solution for the now common problem is to move the recursive
deadlock discovery to the first action when taking the ww_mutex.

locking/mutex: Allow next waiter lockless wakeup 
Make use of wake-queues and enable the wakeup to occur after releasing the
wait_lock. This is similar to what we do with rtmutex top waiter,
slightly shortening the critical region and allow other waiters to
acquire the wait_lock sooner. In low contention cases it can also help
the recently woken waiter to find the wait_lock available (fastpath)
when it continues execution.

locking/mutex: Further simplify mutex_spin_on_owner() 
Similar to what Linus suggested for rwsem_spin_on_owner(), in
mutex_spin_on_owner() instead of having while (true) and
breaking out of the spin loop on lock->owner != owner, we can
have the loop directly check for while (lock->owner == owner) to
improve the readability of the code.

It also shrinks the code a bit:

   text    data     bss     dec     hex filename
   3721       0       0    3721     e89 mutex.o.before
   3705       0       0    3705     e79 mutex.o.after

locking: Remove ACCESS_ONCE() usage 
With the new standardized functions, we can replace all
ACCESS_ONCE() calls across relevant locking - this includes
lockref and seqlock while at it.

ACCESS_ONCE() does not work reliably on non-scalar types.
For example gcc 4.6 and 4.7 might remove the volatile tag
for such accesses during the SRA (scalar replacement of
aggregates) step:

  https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=58145

Update the new calls regardless of if it is a scalar type,
this is cleaner than having three alternatives.

locking/rwsem: Set lock ownership ASAP 
In order to optimize the spinning step, we need to set the lock
owner as soon as the lock is acquired; after a successful counter
cmpxchg operation, that is. This is particularly useful as rwsems
need to set the owner to nil for readers, so there is a greater
chance of falling out of the spinning. Currently we only set the
owner much later in the game, in the more generic level -- latency
can be specially bad when waiting for a node->next pointer when
releasing the osq in up_write calls.

As such, update the owner inside rwsem_try_write_lock (when the
lock is obtained after blocking) and rwsem_try_write_lock_unqueued
(when the lock is obtained while spinning). This requires creating
a new internal rwsem.h header to share the owner related calls.

Also cleanup some headers for mutex and rwsem.

locking/mutex: Refactor mutex_spin_on_owner() 
As suggested by Davidlohr, we could refactor mutex_spin_on_owner().

Currently, we split up owner_running() with mutex_spin_on_owner().
When the owner changes, we make duplicate owner checks which are not
necessary. It also makes the code a bit obscure as we are using a
second check to figure out why we broke out of the loop.

This patch modifies it such that we remove the owner_running() function
and the mutex_spin_on_owner() loop directly checks for if the owner changes,
if the owner is not running, or if we need to reschedule. If the owner
changes, we break out of the loop and return true. If the owner is not
running or if we need to reschedule, then break out of the loop and return
false.

locking/mutex: In mutex_spin_on_owner(), return true when owner changes 
In the mutex_spin_on_owner(), we return true only if lock->owner == NULL.
This was beneficial in situations where there were multiple threads
simultaneously spinning for the mutex. If another thread got the lock
while other spinner(s) were also doing mutex_spin_on_owner(), then the
other spinners would stop spinning. This workaround helped reduce the
chance that many spinners were simultaneously spinning for the mutex
which can help reduce contention in highly contended cases.

However, recent changes were made to the optimistic spinning code such
that instead of having all spinners simultaneously spin for the mutex,
we queue the spinners with an MCS lock such that only one thread spins
for the mutex at a time. Furthermore, the OSQ optimizations ensure that
spinners in the queue will stop waiting if it needs to reschedule.

Now, we don't have to worry about multiple threads spinning on owner
at the same time, and if lock->owner is not NULL at this point, it likely
means another thread happens to obtain the lock in the fastpath. In this
case, it would make sense for the spinner to continue spinning as long
as the spinner doesn't need to schedule and the mutex owner is running.

This patch changes this so that mutex_spin_on_owner() returns true when
the lock owner changes, which means a thread will only stop spinning
if it either needs to reschedule or if the lock owner is not running.

We saw up to a 5% performance improvement in the fserver workload with
this patch.

locking/mutex: Don't assume TASK_RUNNING 
We're going to make might_sleep() test for TASK_RUNNING, because
blocking without TASK_RUNNING will destroy the task state by setting
it to TASK_RUNNING.

There are a few occasions where its 'valid' to call blocking
primitives (and mutex_lock in particular) and not have TASK_RUNNING,
typically such cases are right before we set TASK_RUNNING anyhow.

Robustify the code by not assuming this; this has the beneficial side
effect of allowing optional code emission for fixing the above
might_sleep() false positives.
