commit a6f88ac32c6e63e69c595bfae220d8641704c9b7 upstream.

There is a deadlock scenario between lockdep and rcu when
rcu nocb feature is enabled, just as following call stack:

     rcuop/x
-000|queued_spin_lock_slowpath(lock = 0xFFFFFF817F2A8A80, val = ?)
-001|queued_spin_lock(inline) // try to hold nocb_gp_lock

-007|rcu_nocb_cb_kthread(arg = 0xFFFFFF817F245680)
-008|kthread(_create = 0xFFFFFF80803122C0)
-009|ret_from_fork(asm)

     rcuop/y
-000|queued_spin_lock_slowpath(lock = 0xFFFFFFC08291BBC8, val = 0)
-001|queued_spin_lock()
-001|lockdep_lock()
-001|graph_lock() // try to hold graph lock
-002|lookup_chain_cache_add()
-002|validate_chain()
-003|lock_acquire
-004|_raw_spin_lock_irqsave(lock = 0xFFFFFF817F211D80)
-005|lock_timer_base(inline)
-006|mod_timer(inline)
-006|wake_nocb_gp_defer(inline)// hold nocb_gp_lock

-011|kthread(_create = 0xFFFFFF8080363740)
-012|ret_from_fork(asm)

rcuop/x and rcuop/y are rcu nocb threads with the same nocb gp thread.
This patch release the graph lock before lockdep call_rcu.

Pull bcachefs updates from Kent Overstreet:

 - Metadata version 1.8: Stripe sectors accounting, BCH_DATA_unstriped

   This splits out the accounting of dirty sectors and stripe sectors in
   alloc keys; this lets us see stripe buckets that still have unstriped
   data in them.

   This is needed for ensuring that erasure coding is working correctly,
   as well as completing stripe creation after a crash.

 - Metadata version 1.9: Disk accounting rewrite

   The previous disk accounting scheme relied heavily on percpu counters
   that were also sharded by outstanding journal buffer; it was fast but
   not extensible or scalable, and meant that all accounting counters
   were recorded in every journal entry.

   The new disk accounting scheme stores accounting as normal btree
   keys; updates are deltas until they are flushed by the btree write
   buffer.

   This means we have no practical limit on the number of counters, and
   a new tagged union format that's easy to extend.

   We now have counters for compression type/ratio, per-snapshot-id
   usage, per-btree-id usage, and pending rebalance work.

 - Self healing on read IO/checksum error

   Data is now automatically rewritten if we get a read error and then a
   successful retry

 - Mount API conversion (thanks to Thomas Bertschinger)

 - Better lockdep coverage

   Previously, btree node locks were tracked individually by lockdep,
   like any other lock. But we may take _many_ btree node locks
   simultaneously, we easily blow through the limit of 48 locks that
   lockdep can track, leading to lockdep turning itself off.

   Tracking each btree node lock individually isn't really necessary
   since we have our own cycle detector for deadlock avoidance and
   centralized tracking of btree node locks, so we now have a single
   lockdep_map in btree_trans for "any btree nodes are locked".

 - Some more small incremental work towards online check_allocations

 - Lots more debugging improvements

 - Fixes, including:
    - undefined behaviour fixes, originally noted as breaking userspace
      LTO builds
    - fix a spurious warning in fsck_err, reported by Marcin
    - fix an integer overflow on trans-&gt;nr_updates, also reported by
      Marcin; this broke during deletion of highly fragmented indirect
      extents

Add a new helper to disable lockdep tracking entirely for a given class.

This is needed for bcachefs, which takes too many btree node locks for
lockdep to track. Instead, we have a single lockdep_map for "btree_trans
has any btree nodes locked", which makes more since given that we have
centralized lock management and a cycle detector.

This commit is part of a greater effort to remove all
empty elements at the end of the ctl_table arrays (sentinels) which will
reduce the overall build time size of the kernel and run time memory
bloat by ~64 bytes per sentinel (further information Link :

Kent reported an occasional KASAN splat in lockdep. Mark then noted:

&gt; I suspect the dodgy access is to chain_block_buckets[-1], which hits the last 4
&gt; bytes of the redzone and gets (incorrectly/misleadingly) attributed to
&gt; nr_large_chain_blocks.

That would mean @size == 0, at which point size_to_bucket() returns -1
and the above happens.

alloc_chain_hlocks() has 'size - req', for the first with the
precondition 'size &gt;= rq', which allows the 0.

This code is trying to split a block, del_chain_block() takes what we
need, and add_chain_block() puts back the remainder, except in the
above case the remainder is 0 sized and things go sideways.

<title>lockdep: fix static memory detection even more</title>

<id>0a6b58c5cd0dfd7961e725212f0fc8dfc5d96195</id>
<content type='text'>
On the parisc architecture, lockdep reports for all static objects which
are in the __initdata section (e.g. "setup_done" in devtmpfs,
"kthreadd_done" in init/main.c) this warning:

	INFO: trying to register non-static key.

The warning itself is wrong, because those objects are in the __initdata
section, but the section itself is on parisc outside of range from
_stext to _end, which is why the static_obj() functions returns a wrong
answer.

While fixing this issue, I noticed that the whole existing check can
be simplified a lot.
Instead of checking against the _stext and _end symbols (which include
code areas too) just check for the .data and .bss segments (since we check a
data object). This can be done with the existing is_kernel_core_data()
macro.

In addition objects in the __initdata section can be checked with
init_section_contains(), and is_kernel_rodata() allows keys to be in the
_ro_after_init section.

This partly reverts and simplifies commit bac59d18c701 ("x86/setup: Fix static
memory detection").

Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar:

 - Introduce cmpxchg128() -- aka. the demise of cmpxchg_double()

   The cmpxchg128() family of functions is basically &amp; functionally the
   same as cmpxchg_double(), but with a saner interface.

   Instead of a 6-parameter horror that forced u128 - u64/u64-halves
   layout details on the interface and exposed users to complexity,
   fragility &amp; bugs, use a natural 3-parameter interface with u128
   types.

 - Restructure the generated atomic headers, and add kerneldoc comments
   for all of the generic atomic{,64,_long}_t operations.

   The generated definitions are much cleaner now, and come with
   documentation.

 - Implement lock_set_cmp_fn() on lockdep, for defining an ordering when
   taking multiple locks of the same type.

   This gets rid of one use of lockdep_set_novalidate_class() in the
   bcache code.

 - Fix raw_cpu_generic_try_cmpxchg() bug due to an unintended variable
   shadowing generating garbage code on Clang on certain ARM builds.

<title>lockdep: Add lock_set_cmp_fn() annotation</title>

This implements a new interface to lockdep, lock_set_cmp_fn(), for
defining a custom ordering when taking multiple locks of the same
class.

This is an alternative to subclasses, but can not fully replace them
since subclasses allow lock hierarchies with other clasees
inter-twined, while this relies on pure class nesting.

Specifically, if A is our nesting class then:

  A/0 &lt;- B &lt;- A/1

Would be a valid lock order with subclasses (each subclass really is a
full class from the validation PoV) but not with this annotation,
which requires all nesting to be consecutive.

Example output:
