Currently, rcu_torture_boost() runs CPU-bound at real-time priority
to force RCU priority inversions. It then checks that grace periods
progress during this CPU-bound time. If grace periods fail to progress,
it reports and RCU priority boosting failure.
However, it is possible (and sometimes does happen) that the grace period
fails to progress due to a CPU failing to pass through a quiescent state
for an extended time period (3.5 seconds by default). This can happen
due to vCPU preemption, long-running interrupts, and much else besides.
There is nothing that RCU priority boosting can do about these situations,
and so they should not be counted as RCU priority boosting failures.
This commit therefore checks for CPUs (as opposed to preempted tasks)
holding up a grace period, and flags the resulting RCU priority boosting
failures, but does not splat nor count them as errors. It does rate-limit
them to avoid flooding the console log.

It is possible that a delayed grace period that rcu_torture_boost()
was polling for ended while rcu_torture_boost_failed() was printing the
failure splat. It would be good to know when this happens. This commit
therefore has rcu_torture_boost_failed() recheck the grace period after
printing the splat, and printing a message indicating whether or not
the grace period has ended.

This commit consolidates two loops in rcu_torture_boost(), one of which
counts the number of boost-test episodes and the other of which computes
the start time of the next episode, into one loop that does both with but
a single acquisition of boost_mutex. This means that the count of the
number of boost-test episodes is incremented after an episode completes
rather than before it starts, but it also avoids the over-counting that
was possible previously.

If an rcu_torture_boost() kthread determines that its grace period
has not yet ended, it invokes rcu_torture_boost_failed() which checks
whether enough time has elapsed for this to be considered a failure of
RCU priority boosting, and, if so, flags the error.
Unfortunately, that kthread might be preempted for some seconds between
the time that it checks the grace period and the time that it checks the
time. This delay can result in a false positive, featuring a complaint
that a particular grace period has not ended, followed by a diagnostic
dump featuring a much later grace period.
This commit avoids these false positives by rechecking for the end of
the grace period after the time check.

Currently, rcutorture's testing of RCU priority boosting insists not
only that grace periods complete, but also that callbacks be invoked.
Although this is in fact what the user would want, ensuring that there
is sufficient CPU bandwidth devoted to callback execution is in fact
the user's responsibility. One could argue that rcutorture can take on
that responsibility, which is true in theory. But in practice, ensuring
sufficient CPU bandwidth to ksoftirqd, any rcuc kthreads, and any rcuo
kthreads is not particularly consistent with rcutorture's main job,
that of stress-testing RCU. In addition, if the system administrator
(say) makes very poor choices when pinning rcuo kthreads and then runs
rcutorture, there really isn't much rcutorture can do.
Besides, RCU priority boosting only boosts lagging readers, not all the
machinery required to invoke callbacks in a timely fashion.
This commit therefore switches rcutorture's evaluation of RCU priority
boosting from callback execution to grace-period completion by using
the new start_poll_synchronize_rcu() and poll_state_synchronize_rcu()
functions. When rcutorture is built in (as in when there is no innocent
workload to inconvenience), the ksoftirqd ktheads are boosted to real-time
priority 2 in order to allow timeouts to work properly in the face of
rcutorture's testing of RCU priority boosting.
Indeed, it is not as easy as it looks to create a reliable test of RCU
priority boosting without destroying the rest of the kernel!

This commit causes rcutorture to test the new start_poll_synchronize_rcu()
and poll_state_synchronize_rcu() functions. Because of the difficulty of
determining the nature of a synchronous RCU grace (expedited or not),
the test that insisted that poll_state_synchronize_rcu() detect an
intervening synchronize_rcu() had to be dropped.

Currently, rcutorture refuses to test RCU priority boosting in
CONFIG_HOTPLUG_CPU=y kernels, which are the only kind normally built on
x86 these days. This commit therefore updates rcutorture's tests of RCU
priority boosting to make them safe for CPU hotplug. However, these tests
will fail unless TIMER_SOFTIRQ runs at realtime priority, which does not
happen in current mainline. This commit therefore also refuses to test
RCU priority boosting except in kernels built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y.
While in the area, this commt adds some debug output at boost-fail time
that helps diagnose the cause of the failure, for example, failing to
run TIMER_SOFTIRQ at realtime priority.

The TREE01 rcutorture scenario intentionally creates confusion as to the
number of available CPUs by specifying the "maxcpus=8 nr_cpus=43" kernel
boot parameters. This can disable rcutorture's load shedding, which
currently uses num_online_cpus(), which would count the extra 35 CPUs.
However, the rcutorture guest OS will be provisioned with only 8 CPUs,
which means that rcutorture will present full load even when all but one
of the original 8 CPUs are offline. This can result in spurious errors
due to extreme overloading of that single remaining CPU.
This commit therefore keeps a separate set of books on the number of
usable online CPUs, so that torture_num_online_cpus() is used for load
shedding instead of num_online_cpus(). Note that initial sizing must
use num_online_cpus() because torture_num_online_cpus() will return
NR_CPUS until shortly after torture_onoff_init() is invoked.

Because rcu_torture_writer() and rcu_torture_fakewriter() predate
hrtimers, they do timer-wheel-decoupled timed waits by using the
timer-wheel-based schedule_timeout_interruptible() functions in
conjunction with a random udelay()-based wait. This latter unnecessarily
burns CPU time, so this commit instead uses torture_hrtimeout_jiffies()
to decouple from the timer wheels without busy-waiting.

Full testing of the new SRCU polling API requires that the fake writers
also use it in order to test concurrent calls to all of the API members,
especially start_poll_synchronize_srcu(). This commit prepares the ground
for this by making the synctype[] and nsynctype variables be static
globals so that the rcu_torture_fakewriter() function can access them.
Initialization of these variables is moved from rcu_torture_writer()
to a new rcu_torture_write_types() function that is invoked from
rcu_torture_init() just before the first writer kthread is spawned.

Currently, the rcu_torture_writer() function checks that all required
grace periods elapse during a stutter interval, which is a multi-second
time period during which the test load is removed. However, this check
is suppressed during early boot (that is, before init is spawned) in
order to avoid false positives that otherwise occur due to heavy load
on the single boot CPU.
Unfortunately, this approach is insufficient. It is possible that the
stutter interval might end just as init is spawned, so that early boot
conditions prevailed during almost the entire stutter interval.
This commit therefore takes a snapshot of boot-complete state just
before the stutter interval, thus suppressing the check for failure to
complete grace periods unless the entire stutter interval took place
after early boot.

RCU guarantees that anything seen by a given reader will also be seen
after any grace period that must wait on that reader. This is very likely
to hold based on inspection, but the advantage of having rcutorture do
the inspecting is that rcutorture doesn't mind inspecting frequently
and often.
This commit therefore adds code to test RCU's global memory ordering.

This commit adds writer-side testing of the polling grace-period API.
One test verifies that the polling API sees a grace period caused by
some other mechanism. Another test verifies that using the polling API
to wait for a grace period does not result in too-short grace periods.
A third test verifies that the polling API does not report
completion within a read-side critical section. A fourth and final
test verifies that the polling API does report completion given an
intervening grace period.

Currently, stutter_wait() will happily spin waiting for the stutter
interval to end even if the caller is running at a real-time priority
level. This could starve normal-priority tasks for no good reason. This
commit therefore drops the calling task's priority to SCHED_OTHER MAX_NICE
if stutter_wait() needs to wait. But when it waits, stutter_wait()
returns true, which allows the caller to restore the priority if needed.
Callers that were already running at SCHED_OTHER MAX_NICE obviously
do not need any changes, but this commit also restores priority for
higher-priority callers.
