Since 9e8cd2f589 ("workqueue: implement apply_workqueue_attrs()"),
init_and_link_pwq() may be called to initialize a new pool_workqueue
for a workqueue which is already online, but the function was setting
pwq->max_active to wq->saved_max_active without proper
synchronization.
Fix it by calling pwq_adjust_max_active() under proper locking instead
of manually setting max_active.

Rename pwq_set_max_active() to pwq_adjust_max_active() and move
pool_workqueue->max_active synchronization and max_active
determination logic into it.
The new function should be called with workqueue_lock held for stable
workqueue->saved_max_active, determines the current max_active value
the target pool_workqueue should be using from @wq->saved_max_active
and the state of the associated pool, and applies it with proper
synchronization.
The current two users - workqueue_set_max_active() and
thaw_workqueues() - are updated accordingly. In addition, the manual
freezing handling in __alloc_workqueue_key() and
freeze_workqueues_begin() are replaced with calls to
pwq_adjust_max_active().
This centralizes max_active handling so that it's less error-prone.

Implement a function which queries whether it currently is running off

There are cases where workqueue users want to expose control knobs to
userland. e.g. Unbound workqueues with custom attributes are
scheduled to be used for writeback workers and depending on
configuration it can be useful to allow admins to tinker with the
priority or allowed CPUs.
This patch implements workqueue_sysfs_register(), which makes the
workqueue visible under /sys/bus/workqueue/devices/WQ_NAME. There
currently are two attributes common to both per-cpu and unbound pools
and extra attributes for unbound pools including nice level and
cpumask.
If alloc_workqueue*() is called with WQ_SYSFS,
workqueue_sysfs_register() is called automatically as part of
workqueue creation. This is the preferred method unless the workqueue
user wants to apply workqueue_attrs before making the workqueue
visible to userland.
v2: Disallow exposing ordered workqueues as ordered workqueues can't
be tuned in any way.

Adjusting max_active of or applying new workqueue_attrs to an ordered
workqueue breaks its ordering guarantee. The former is obvious. The
latter is because applying attrs creates a new pwq (pool_workqueue)
and there is no ordering constraint between the old and new pwqs.
Make apply_workqueue_attrs() and workqueue_set_max_active() trigger
WARN_ON() if those operations are requested on an ordered workqueue
and fail / ignore respectively.

Implement apply_workqueue_attrs() which applies workqueue_attrs to the
specified unbound workqueue by creating a new pwq (pool_workqueue)
linked to worker_pool with the specified attributes.
A new pwq is linked at the head of wq->pwqs instead of tail and
__queue_work() verifies that the first unbound pwq has positive refcnt
before choosing it for the actual queueing. This is to cover the case
where creation of a new pwq races with queueing. As base ref on a pwq
won't be dropped without making another pwq the first one,
__queue_work() is guaranteed to make progress and not add work item to
a dead pwq.
init_and_link_pwq() is updated to return the last first pwq the new
pwq replaced, which is put by apply_workqueue_attrs().
Note that apply_workqueue_attrs() is almost identical to unbound pwq
part of alloc_and_link_pwqs(). The only difference is that there is
no previous first pwq. apply_workqueue_attrs() is implemented to
handle such cases and replaces unbound pwq handling in
alloc_and_link_pwqs().

Because per-cpu workqueues have multiple pwqs (pool_workqueues) to
serve the CPUs, to guarantee that a single work item isn't queued on
one pwq while still executing another, __queue_work() takes a look at
the previous pool the target work item was on and if it's still
executing there, queue the work item on that pool.
To support changing workqueue_attrs on the fly, unbound workqueues too
will have multiple pwqs and thus need non-reentrancy test when
queueing. This patch modifies __queue_work() such that the reentrancy
test is performed regardless of the workqueue type.
per_cpu_ptr(wq->cpu_pwqs, cpu) used to be used to determine the
matching pwq for the last pool. This can't be used for unbound
workqueues and is replaced with worker->current_pwq which also happens
to be simpler.

unbound pool_workqueues
Unbound pwqs (pool_workqueues) will be dynamically created and
destroyed with the scheduled unbound workqueue w/ custom attributes
support. This patch synchronizes pwq linking and unlinking against
flush_workqueue() so that its operation isn't disturbed by pwqs coming
and going.
Linking and unlinking a pwq into wq->pwqs is now protected also by
wq->flush_mutex and a new pwq's work_color is initialized to
wq->work_color during linking. This ensures that pwqs changes don't
disturb flush_workqueue() in progress and the new pwq's work coloring
stays in sync with the rest of the workqueue.
flush_mutex during unlinking isn't strictly necessary but it's simpler
to do it anyway.

Add pool_workqueue->refcnt along with get/put_pwq(). Both per-cpu and
unbound pwqs have refcnts and any work item inserted on a pwq
increments the refcnt which is dropped when the work item finishes.
For per-cpu pwqs the base ref is never dropped and destroy_workqueue()
frees the pwqs as before. For unbound ones, destroy_workqueue()
simply drops the base ref on the first pwq. When the refcnt reaches
zero, pwq_unbound_release_workfn() is scheduled on system_wq, which
unlinks the pwq, puts the associated pool and frees the pwq and wq as
necessary. This needs to be done from a work item as put_pwq() needs
to be protected by pool->lock but release can't happen with the lock
held - e.g. put_unbound_pool() involves blocking operations.
Unbound pool->locks are marked with lockdep subclas 1 as put_pwq()
will schedule the release work item on system_wq while holding the
unbound pool's lock and triggers recursive locking warning spuriously.
This will be used to implement dynamic creation and destruction of
unbound pwqs.

This patch makes unbound worker_pools reference counted and
dynamically created and destroyed as workqueues needing them come and
go. All unbound worker_pools are hashed on unbound_pool_hash which is
keyed by the content of worker_pool->attrs.
When an unbound workqueue is allocated, get_unbound_pool() is called
with the attributes of the workqueue. If there already is a matching
worker_pool, the reference count is bumped and the pool is returned.
If not, a new worker_pool with matching attributes is created and
returned.
When an unbound workqueue is destroyed, put_unbound_pool() is called
which decrements the reference count of the associated worker_pool.
If the refcnt reaches zero, the worker_pool is destroyed in sched-RCU
safe way.
Note that the standard unbound worker_pools - normal and highpri ones
with no specific cpumask affinity - are no longer created explicitly
during init_workqueues(). init_workqueues() only initializes
workqueue_attrs to be used for standard unbound pools -
unbound_std_wq_attrs[]. The pools are spawned on demand as workqueues
are created.
v2: - Comment added to init_worker_pool() explaining that @pool should
be in a condition which can be passed to put_unbound_pool() even
on failure.
- pool->refcnt reaching zero and the pool being removed from
unbound_pool_hash should be dynamic. pool->refcnt is converted
to int from atomic_t and now manipulated inside workqueue_lock.
- Removed an incorrect sanity check on nr_idle in
put_unbound_pool() which may trigger spuriously.

The three freeze/thaw related functions - freeze_workqueues_begin(),
freeze_workqueues_busy() and thaw_workqueues() - need to iterate
through all pool_workqueues of all freezable workqueues. They did it
by first iterating pools and then visiting all pwqs (pool_workqueues)
of all workqueues and process it if its pwq->pool matches the current
pool. This is rather backwards and done this way partly because
workqueue didn't have fitting iteration helpers and partly to avoid
the number of lock operations on pool->lock.
Workqueue now has fitting iterators and the locking operation overhead
isn't anything to worry about - those locks are unlikely to be
contended and the same CPU visiting the same set of locks multiple
times isn't expensive.
Restructure the three functions such that the flow better matches the
logical steps and pwq iteration is done using for_each_pwq() inside
workqueue iteration.
* freeze_workqueues_begin(): Setting of FREEZING is moved into a
separate for_each_pool() iteration. pwq iteration for clearing
max_active is updated as described above.
* freeze_workqueues_busy(): pwq iteration updated as described above.
* thaw_workqueues(): The single for_each_wq_cpu() iteration is broken
into three discrete steps - clearing FREEZING, restoring max_active,
and kicking workers. The first and last steps use for_each_pool()
and the second step uses pwq iteration described above.
This makes the code easier to understand and removes the use of
for_each_wq_cpu() for walking pwqs, which can't support multiple
unbound pwqs which will be needed to implement unbound workqueues with
custom attributes.

Since multiple pools per cpu have been introduced, wq_unbind_fn() has
a subtle bug which may theoretically stall work item processing. The
problem is two-fold.
* wq_unbind_fn() depends on the worker executing wq_unbind_fn() itself
to start unbound chain execution, which works fine when there was
only single pool. With multiple pools, only the pool which is
running wq_unbind_fn() - the highpri one - is guaranteed to have
such kick-off. The other pool could stall when its busy workers
block.
* The current code is setting WORKER_UNBIND / POOL_DISASSOCIATED of
the two pools in succession without initiating work execution
inbetween. Because setting the flags requires grabbing assoc_mutex
which is held while new workers are created, this could lead to
stalls if a pool's manager is waiting for the previous pool's work
items to release memory. This is almost purely theoretical tho.
Update wq_unbind_fn() such that it sets WORKER_UNBIND /
POOL_DISASSOCIATED, goes over schedule() and explicitly kicks off
execution for a pool and then moves on to the next one.

the current worker task, they are always the same.
Update worker_maybe_bind_and_lock() to use %current consistently.
This doesn't introduce any functional change.

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived
list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)
The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:
hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)
Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.
Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:
- Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
- Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
- A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
was modified to use 'obj->member' instead.
- Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.
The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

commit d8e794dfd51c368ed3f686b7f4172830b60ae47b ("workqueue: set
delayed_work->timer function on initialization") exports function
delayed_work_timer_fn() only for GPL modules. This makes delayed-works
unusable for non-GPL modules, because initialization macro now requires
GPL symbol. For example schedule_delayed_work() available for non-GPL.

workqueue has moved away from global_cwqs to worker_pools and with the
scheduled custom worker pools, wforkqueues will be associated with
pools which don't have anything to do with CPUs. The workqueue code
went through significant amount of changes recently and mass renaming
isn't likely to hurt much additionally. Let's replace 'cpu' with
'pool' so that it reflects the current design.
* s/struct cpu_workqueue_struct/struct pool_workqueue/
* s/cpu_wq/pool_wq/

is_chained_work() was added before current_wq_worker() and implemented
its own ham-fisted way of finding out whether %current is a workqueue
worker - it iterates through all possible workers.
Drop the custom implementation and reimplement using
current_wq_worker().

c9e7cf273f ("workqueue: move busy_hash from global_cwq to
worker_pool") incorrectly converted is_chained_work() to use
get_gcwq() inside for_each_gcwq_cpu() while removing get_gcwq().
As cwq might not exist for all possible workqueue CPUs, @cwq can be
NULL and the following cwq deferences can lead to oops.
Fix it by using for_each_cwq_cpu() instead, which is the better one to
use anyway as we only need to check pools that the wq is associated
with.

Currently, __queue_work() chooses the pool to queue a work item to and
then determines cwq from the target wq and the chosen pool. This is a
bit backwards in that we can determine cwq first and simply use
cwq->pool. This way, we can skip get_std_worker_pool() in queueing
path which will be a hurdle when implementing custom worker pools.
Update __queue_work() such that it chooses the target cwq and then use
cwq->pool instead of the other way around. While at it, add missing
{} in an if statement.
This patch doesn't introduce any functional changes.
tj: The original patch had two get_cwq() calls - the first to
determine the pool by doing get_cwq(cpu, wq)->pool and the second
to determine the matching cwq from get_cwq(pool->cpu, wq).
Updated the function such that it chooses cwq instead of pool and
removed the second call. Rewrote the description.

get_work_pool_id() currently first obtains pool using get_work_pool()
and then return pool->id. For an off-queue work item, this involves
obtaining pool ID from worker->data, performing idr_find() to find the
matching pool and then returning its pool->id which of course is the
same as the one which went into idr_find().
Just open code WORK_STRUCT_CWQ case and directly return pool ID from
work->data.
tj: The original patch dropped on-queue work item handling and renamed
the function to offq_work_pool_id(). There isn't much benefit in
doing so. Handling it only requires a single if() and we need at
least BUG_ON(), which is also a branch, even if we drop on-queue
handling. Open code WORK_STRUCT_CWQ case and keep the function in
line with get_work_pool(). Rewrote the description.

As nr_running is likely to be accessed from other CPUs during
try_to_wake_up(), it was kept outside worker_pool; however, while less
frequent, other fields in worker_pool are accessed from other CPUs
for, e.g., non-reentrancy check. Also, with recent pool related
changes, accessing nr_running matching the worker_pool isn't as simple
as it used to be.
Move nr_running inside worker_pool. Keep it aligned to cacheline and
define CPU pools using DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED(). This should
give at least the same cacheline behavior.
get_pool_nr_running() is replaced with direct pool->nr_running
accesses.

Currently, determining whether a work item is queued on a locked pool
involves somewhat convoluted memory barrier dancing. It goes like the
following.
* When a work item is queued on a pool, work->data is updated before
work->entry is linked to the pending list with a wmb() inbetween.
* When trying to determine whether a work item is currently queued on
a pool pointed to by work->data, it locks the pool and looks at
work->entry. If work->entry is linked, we then do rmb() and then
check whether work->data points to the current pool.
This works because, work->data can only point to a pool if it
currently is or were on the pool and,
* If it currently is on the pool, the tests would obviously succeed.
* It it left the pool, its work->entry was cleared under pool->lock,
so if we're seeing non-empty work->entry, it has to be from the work
item being linked on another pool. Because work->data is updated
before work->entry is linked with wmb() inbetween, work->data update
from another pool is guaranteed to be visible if we do rmb() after
seeing non-empty work->entry. So, we either see empty work->entry
or we see updated work->data pointin to another pool.
While this works, it's convoluted, to put it mildly. With recent
updates, it's now guaranteed that work->data points to cwq only while
the work item is queued and that updating work->data to point to cwq
or back to pool is done under pool->lock, so we can simply test
whether work->data points to cwq which is associated with the
currently locked pool instead of the convoluted memory barrier
dancing.
This patch replaces the memory barrier based "are you still here,
really?" test with much simpler "does work->data points to me?" test -
if work->data points to a cwq which is associated with the currently
locked pool, the work item is guaranteed to be queued on the pool as
work->data can start and stop pointing to such cwq only under
pool->lock and the start and stop coincide with queue and dequeue.
