Add an interface for a user-defined workqueue lockdep map, which is
helpful when multiple workqueues are created for the same purpose. This
also helps avoid leaking lockdep maps on each workqueue creation.

The enable_and_queue_work() function is introduced to streamline
the process of enabling and queuing a work item on a specific
workqueue. This function combines the functionalities of
enable_work() and queue_work() in a single call, providing a
concise and convenient API for enabling and queuing work items.
The function accepts a target workqueue and a work item as parameters.
It first attempts to enable the work item using enable_work(). A successful
enable operation means that the work item was previously disabled
and is now marked as eligible for execution. If the enable operation
is successful, the work item is then queued on the specified workqueue
using queue_work(). The function returns true if the work item was
successfully enabled and queued, and false otherwise.
Note: This function may lead to unnecessary spurious wake-ups in cases
where the work item is expected to be dormant but enable/disable are called
frequently. Spurious wake-ups refer to the condition where worker threads
are woken up without actual work to be done. Callers should be aware of
this behavior and may need to employ additional synchronization mechanisms
to avoid these overheads if such wake-ups are not desired.
This addition aims to enhance code readability and maintainability by
providing a unified interface for the common use case of enabling and
queuing work items on a workqueue.

cancel[_delayed]_work_sync() guarantees that it can shut down
self-requeueing work items. To achieve that, it grabs and then holds
WORK_STRUCT_PENDING bit set while flushing the currently executing instance.
As the PENDING bit is set, all queueing attempts including the
self-requeueing ones fail and once the currently executing instance is
flushed, the work item should be idle as long as someone else isn't actively
queueing it.
This means that the cancel_work_sync path may hold the PENDING bit set while
flushing the target work item. This isn't a problem for the queueing path -
it can just fail which is the desired effect. It doesn't affect flush. It
doesn't matter to cancel_work either as it can just report that the work
item has successfully canceled. However, if there's another cancel_work_sync
attempt on the work item, it can't simply fail or report success and that
would breach the guarantee that it should provide. cancel_work_sync has to
wait for and grab that PENDING bit and go through the motions.
WORK_OFFQ_CANCELING and wq_cancel_waitq are what implement this
cancel_work_sync to cancel_work_sync wait mechanism. When a work item is
being canceled, WORK_OFFQ_CANCELING is also set on it and other
cancel_work_sync attempts wait on the bit to be cleared using the wait
queue.
While this works, it's an isolated wart which doesn't jive with the rest of
flush and cancel mechanisms and forces enable_work() and disable_work() to
require a sleepable context, which hampers their usability.
Now that a work item can be disabled, we can use that to block queueing
while cancel_work_sync is in progress. Instead of holding PENDING the bit,
it can temporarily disable the work item, flush and then re-enable it as
that'd achieve the same end result of blocking queueings while canceling and
thus enable canceling of self-requeueing work items.
- WORK_OFFQ_CANCELING and the surrounding mechanims are removed.
- work_grab_pending() is now simpler, no longer has to wait for a blocking
operation and thus can be called from any context.
- With work_grab_pending() simplified, no need to use try_to_grab_pending()
directly. All users are converted to use work_grab_pending().
- __cancel_work_sync() is updated to __cancel_work() with
WORK_CANCEL_DISABLE to cancel and plug racing queueing attempts. It then
flushes and re-enables the work item if necessary.
- These changes allow disable_work() and enable_work() to be called from any
context.
v2: Lai pointed out that mod_delayed_work_on() needs to check the disable
count before queueing the delayed work item. Added
clear_pending_if_disabled() call.

While (delayed) work items could be flushed and canceled, there was no way
to prevent them from being queued in the future. While this didn't lead to
functional deficiencies, it sometimes required a bit more effort from the
workqueue users to e.g. sequence shutdown steps with more care.
Workqueue is currently in the process of replacing tasklet which does
support disabling and enabling. The feature is used relatively widely to,
for example, temporarily suppress main path while a control plane operation
(reset or config change) is in progress.
To enable easy conversion of tasklet users and as it seems like an inherent
useful feature, this patch implements disabling and enabling of work items.
- A work item carries 16bit disable count in work->data while not queued.
The access to the count is synchronized by the PENDING bit like all other
parts of work->data.
- If the count is non-zero, the work item cannot be queued. Any attempt to
queue the work item fails and returns %false.
- disable_work[_sync](), enable_work(), disable_delayed_work[_sync]() and
enable_delayed_work() are added.
v3: enable_work() was using local_irq_enable() instead of
local_irq_restore() to undo IRQ-disable by work_grab_pending(). This is
awkward now and will become incorrect as enable_work() will later be
used from IRQ context too. (Lai)
v2: Lai noticed that queue_work_node() wasn't checking the disable count.
Fixed. queue_rcu_work() is updated to trigger warning if the inner work
item is disabled.

The cancel[_sync] paths acquire and release WORK_STRUCT_PENDING, and
manipulate WORK_OFFQ_CANCELING. However, they assume that all the OFFQ bit
values except for the pool ID are statically known and don't preserve them,
which is not wrong in the current code as the pool ID and CANCELING are the
only information carried. However, the planned disable/enable support will
add more fields and need them to be preserved.
This patch updates work data handling so that only the bits which need
updating are updated.
- struct work_offq_data is added along with work_offqd_unpack() and
work_offqd_pack_flags() to help manipulating multiple fields contained in
work->data. Note that the helpers look a bit silly right now as there
isn't that much to pack. The next patch will add more.
- mark_work_canceling() which is used only by __cancel_work_sync() is
replaced by open-coded usage of work_offq_data and
set_work_pool_and_keep_pending() in __cancel_work_sync().
- __cancel_work[_sync]() uses offq_data helpers to preserve other OFFQ bits
when clearing WORK_STRUCT_PENDING and WORK_OFFQ_CANCELING at the end.
- This removes all users of get_work_pool_id() which is dropped. Note that
get_work_pool_id() could handle both WORK_STRUCT_PWQ and !WORK_STRUCT_PWQ
cases; however, it was only being called after try_to_grab_pending()
succeeded, in which case WORK_STRUCT_PWQ is never set and thus it's safe
to use work_offqd_unpack() instead.
No behavior changes intended.

Boqun pointed out that workqueues aren't handling BH work items on offlined
CPUs. Unlike tasklet which transfers out the pending tasks from
CPUHP_SOFTIRQ_DEAD, BH workqueue would just leave them pending which is
problematic. Note that this behavior is specific to BH workqueues as the
non-BH per-CPU workers just become unbound when the CPU goes offline.
This patch fixes the issue by draining the pending BH work items from an
offlined CPU from CPUHP_SOFTIRQ_DEAD. Because work items carry more context,
it's not as easy to transfer the pending work items from one pool to
another. Instead, run BH work items which execute the offlined pools on an
online CPU.
Note that this assumes that no further BH work items will be queued on the
offlined CPUs. This assumption is shared with tasklet and should be fine for
conversions. However, this issue also exists for per-CPU workqueues which
will just keep executing work items queued after CPU offline on unbound
workers and workqueue should reject per-CPU and BH work items queued on
offline CPUs. This will be addressed separately later.

To streamline the transition from tasklets to worqueues, a new helper
function, from_work(), is introduced. This helper, inspired by existing
from_() patterns, utilizes container_of() and eliminates the redundancy
of declaring variable types, leading to more concise and readable code.
The modified code snippet demonstrates the enhanced clarity achieved
with from_wq():
void callback(struct work_struct *w)
{
- struct some_data_structure *local = container_of(w,
struct some_data_structure,
work);
+ struct some_data_structure *local = from_work(local, w, work);
This change aims to facilitate a smoother transition and uphold code
quality standards.

- Let WORK_STRUCT_*_BIT's values be determined by enum definition order.
- Deliminate different bit sections the same way using SHIFT and BITS
values.
- Rename __WORK_OFFQ_CANCELING to WORK_OFFQ_CANCELING_BIT for consistency.
- Introduce WORK_STRUCT_PWQ_SHIFT and replace WORK_STRUCT_FLAG_MASK and
WORK_STRUCT_WQ_DATA_MASK with WQ_STRUCT_PWQ_MASK for clarity.
- Improve documentation.

Since 5797b1c18919 ("workqueue: Implement system-wide nr_active enforcement

sets the number of interdependent work items that can be handled. This value

5c0338c68706 ("workqueue: restore WQ_UNBOUND/max_active==1 to be ordered")
automoatically promoted UNBOUND workqueues w/ @max_active==1 to ordered
workqueues because UNBOUND workqueues w/ @max_active==1 used to be the way
to create ordered workqueues and the new NUMA support broke it. These
problems can be subtle and the fact that they can only trigger on NUMA
machines made them even more difficult to debug.
However, overloading the UNBOUND allocation interface this way creates other
issues. It's difficult to tell whether a given workqueue actually needs to
be ordered and users that legitimately want a min concurrency level wq
unexpectedly gets an ordered one instead. With planned UNBOUND workqueue
udpates to improve execution locality and more prevalence of chiplet designs
which can benefit from such improvements, this isn't a state we wanna be in
forever.
There aren't that many UNBOUND w/ @max_active==1 users in the tree and the
preceding patches audited all and converted them to
alloc_ordered_workqueue() as appropriate. This patch removes the implicit
promotion of UNBOUND w/ @max_active==1 workqueues to ordered ones.
v2: v1 patch incorrectly dropped !list_empty(&wq->pwqs) condition in
apply_workqueue_attrs_locked() which spuriously triggers WARNING and
fails workqueue creation. Fix it.

The only generic interface to execute asynchronously in the BH context is
tasklet; however, it's marked deprecated and has some design flaws such as
the execution code accessing the tasklet item after the execution is
complete which can lead to subtle use-after-free in certain usage scenarios
and less-developed flush and cancel mechanisms.
This patch implements BH workqueues which share the same semantics and
features of regular workqueues but execute their work items in the softirq
context. As there is always only one BH execution context per CPU, none of
the concurrency management mechanisms applies and a BH workqueue can be
thought of as a convenience wrapper around softirq.
Except for the inability to sleep while executing and lack of max_active
adjustments, BH workqueues and work items should behave the same as regular
workqueues and work items.
Currently, the execution is hooked to tasklet[_hi]. However, the goal is to
convert all tasklet users over to BH workqueues. Once the conversion is
complete, tasklet can be removed and BH workqueues can directly take over
the tasklet softirqs.
system_bh[_highpri]_wq are added. As queue-wide flushing doesn't exist in
tasklet, all existing tasklet users should be able to use the system BH
workqueues without creating their own workqueues.
v3: - Add missing interrupt.h include.
v2: - Instead of using tasklets, hook directly into its softirq action
functions - tasklet[_hi]_action(). This is slightly cheaper and closer
to the eventual code structure we want to arrive at. Suggested by Lai.
- Lai also pointed out several places which need NULL worker->task
handling or can use clarification. Updated.

A pool_workqueue (pwq) represents the connection between a workqueue and a
worker_pool. One of the roles that a pwq plays is enforcement of the
max_active concurrency limit. Before 636b927eba5b ("workqueue: Make unbound
workqueues to use per-cpu pool_workqueues"), there was one pwq per each CPU
for per-cpu workqueues and per each NUMA node for unbound workqueues, which
was a natural result of per-cpu workqueues being served by per-cpu pools and
unbound by per-NUMA pools.
In terms of max_active enforcement, this was, while not perfect, workable.
For per-cpu workqueues, it was fine. For unbound, it wasn't great in that
NUMA machines would get max_active that's multiplied by the number of nodes
but didn't cause huge problems because NUMA machines are relatively rare and
the node count is usually pretty low.
However, cache layouts are more complex now and sharing a worker pool across
a whole node didn't really work well for unbound workqueues. Thus, a series
of commits culminating on 8639ecebc9b1 ("workqueue: Make unbound workqueues
to use per-cpu pool_workqueues") implemented more flexible affinity
mechanism for unbound workqueues which enables using e.g. last-level-cache
aligned pools. In the process, 636b927eba5b ("workqueue: Make unbound
workqueues to use per-cpu pool_workqueues") made unbound workqueues use
per-cpu pwqs like per-cpu workqueues.
While the change was necessary to enable more flexible affinity scopes, this
came with the side effect of blowing up the effective max_active for unbound
workqueues. Before, the effective max_active for unbound workqueues was
multiplied by the number of nodes. After, by the number of CPUs.
636b927eba5b ("workqueue: Make unbound workqueues to use per-cpu
pool_workqueues") claims that this should generally be okay. It is okay for
users which self-regulates concurrency level which are the vast majority;
however, there are enough use cases which actually depend on max_active to
prevent the level of concurrency from going bonkers including several IO
handling workqueues that can issue a work item for each in-flight IO. With
targeted benchmarks, the misbehavior can easily be exposed as reported in
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/dbu6wiwu3sdhmhikb2w6lns7b27gbobfavhjj57kwi2quafgwl@htjcc5oikcr3.
Unfortunately, there is no way to express what these use cases need using
per-cpu max_active. A CPU may issue most of in-flight IOs, so we don't want
to set max_active too low but as soon as we increase max_active a bit, we
can end up with unreasonable number of in-flight work items when many CPUs
issue IOs at the same time. ie. The acceptable lowest max_active is higher
than the acceptable highest max_active.
Ideally, max_active for an unbound workqueue should be system-wide so that
the users can regulate the total level of concurrency regardless of node and
cache layout. The reasons workqueue hasn't implemented that yet are:
- One max_active enforcement decouples from pool boundaires, chaining
execution after a work item finishes requires inter-pool operations which
would require lock dancing, which is nasty.
- Sharing a single nr_active count across the whole system can be pretty
expensive on NUMA machines.
- Per-pwq enforcement had been more or less okay while we were using
per-node pools.
It looks like we no longer can avoid decoupling max_active enforcement from
pool boundaries. This patch implements system-wide nr_active mechanism with
the following design characteristics:
- To avoid sharing a single counter across multiple nodes, the configured
max_active is split across nodes according to the proportion of each
workqueue's online effective CPUs per node. e.g. A node with twice more
online effective CPUs will get twice higher portion of max_active.
- Workqueue used to be able to process a chain of interdependent work items
which is as long as max_active. We can't do this anymore as max_active is
distributed across the nodes. Instead, a new parameter min_active is
introduced which determines the minimum level of concurrency within a node
regardless of how max_active distribution comes out to be.
It is set to the smaller of max_active and WQ_DFL_MIN_ACTIVE which is 8.
This can lead to higher effective max_weight than configured and also
deadlocks if a workqueue was depending on being able to handle chains of
interdependent work items that are longer than 8.
I believe these should be fine given that the number of CPUs in each NUMA
node is usually higher than 8 and work item chain longer than 8 is pretty
unlikely. However, if these assumptions turn out to be wrong, we'll need
to add an interface to adjust min_active.
- Each unbound wq has an array of struct wq_node_nr_active which tracks
per-node nr_active. When its pwq wants to run a work item, it has to
obtain the matching node's nr_active. If over the node's max_active, the
pwq is queued on wq_node_nr_active->pending_pwqs. As work items finish,
the completion path round-robins the pending pwqs activating the first
inactive work item of each, which involves some pool lock dancing and
kicking other pools. It's not the simplest code but doesn't look too bad.
v4: - wq_adjust_max_active() updated to invoke wq_update_node_max_active().
- wq_adjust_max_active() is now protected by wq->mutex instead of
wq_pool_mutex.
v3: - wq_node_max_active() used to calculate per-node max_active on the fly
based on system-wide CPU online states. Lai pointed out that this can
lead to skewed distributions for workqueues with restricted cpumasks.
Update the max_active distribution to use per-workqueue effective
online CPU counts instead of system-wide and cache the calculation
results in node_nr_active->max.
v2: - wq->min/max_active now uses WRITE/READ_ONCE() as suggested by Lai.

wq_unbound_cpumask
When the "isolcpus" boot command line option is used to add a set
of isolated CPUs, those CPUs will be excluded automatically from
wq_unbound_cpumask to avoid running work functions from unbound
workqueues.
Recently cpuset has been extended to allow the creation of partitions
of isolated CPUs dynamically. To make it closer to the "isolcpus"
in functionality, the CPUs in those isolated cpuset partitions should be
excluded from wq_unbound_cpumask as well. This can be done currently by
explicitly writing to the workqueue's cpumask sysfs file after creating
the isolated partitions. However, this process can be error prone.
Ideally, the cpuset code should be allowed to request the workqueue code
to exclude those isolated CPUs from wq_unbound_cpumask so that this
operation can be done automatically and the isolated CPUs will be returned
back to wq_unbound_cpumask after the destructions of the isolated
cpuset partitions.
This patch adds a new workqueue_unbound_exclude_cpumask() function to
enable that. This new function will exclude the specified isolated
CPUs from wq_unbound_cpumask. To be able to restore those isolated
CPUs back after the destruction of isolated cpuset partitions, a new
wq_requested_unbound_cpumask is added to store the user provided unbound
cpumask either from the boot command line options or from writing to
the cpumask sysfs file. This new cpumask provides the basis for CPU
exclusion.
To enable users to understand how the wq_unbound_cpumask is being
modified internally, this patch also exposes the newly introduced
wq_requested_unbound_cpumask as well as a wq_isolated_cpumask to
store the cpumask to be excluded from wq_unbound_cpumask as read-only
sysfs files.

All callers of work_on_cpu() share the same lock class key for all the
functions queued. As a result the workqueue related locking scenario for
a function A may be spuriously accounted as an inversion against the
locking scenario of function B such as in the following model:
long A(void *arg)
{
mutex_lock(&mutex);
mutex_unlock(&mutex);
}
long B(void *arg)
{
}
void launchA(void)
{
work_on_cpu(0, A, NULL);
}
void launchB(void)
{
mutex_lock(&mutex);
work_on_cpu(1, B, NULL);
mutex_unlock(&mutex);
}
launchA and launchB running concurrently have no chance to deadlock.
However the above can be reported by lockdep as a possible locking
inversion because the works containing A() and B() are treated as
belonging to the same locking class.
The following shows an existing example of such a spurious lockdep splat:

While workqueue.default_affinity_scope is writable, it only affects

let's introduce explicit "default" scope and update the effective scope

An unbound workqueue can be served by multiple worker_pools to improve
locality. The segmentation is achieved by grouping CPUs into pods. By
default, the cache boundaries according to cpus_share_cache() define the
CPUs are grouped. Let's a workqueue is allowed to run on all CPUs and the
system has two L3 caches. The workqueue would be mapped to two worker_pools
each serving one L3 cache domains.
While this improves locality, because the pod boundaries are strict, it
limits the total bandwidth a given issuer can consume. For example, let's
say there is a thread pinned to a CPU issuing enough work items to saturate
the whole machine. With the machine segmented into two pods, no matter how
many work items it issues, it can only use half of the CPUs on the system.
While this limitation has existed for a very long time, it wasn't very
pronounced because the affinity grouping used to be always by NUMA nodes.
With cache boundaries as the default and support for even finer grained
scopes (smt and cpu), it is now an a lot more pressing problem.
This patch implements non-strict affinity scope where the pod boundaries
aren't enforced strictly. Going back to the previous example, the workqueue
would still be mapped to two worker_pools; however, the affinity enforcement
would be soft. The workers in both pools would have their cpus_allowed set
to the whole machine thus allowing the scheduler to migrate them anywhere on
the machine. However, whenever an idle worker is woken up, the workqueue
code asks the scheduler to bring back the task within the pod if the worker
is outside. ie. work items start executing within its affinity scope but can
be migrated outside as the scheduler sees fit. This removes the hard cap on
utilization while maintaining the benefits of affinity scopes.
After the earlier ->__pod_cpumask changes, the implementation is pretty
simple. When non-strict which is the new default:
* pool_allowed_cpus() returns @pool->attrs->cpumask instead of
->__pod_cpumask so that the workers are allowed to run on any CPU that
the associated workqueues allow.
* If the idle worker task's ->wake_cpu is outside the pod, kick_pool() sets
the field to a CPU within the pod.
This would be the first use of task_struct->wake_cpu outside scheduler
proper, so it isn't clear whether this would be acceptable. However, other
methods of migrating tasks are significantly more expensive and are likely
prohibitively so if we want to do this on every work item. This needs
discussion with scheduler folks.
There is also a race window where setting ->wake_cpu wouldn't be effective
as the target task is still on CPU. However, the window is pretty small and
this being a best-effort optimization, it doesn't seem to warrant more
complexity at the moment.
While the non-strict cache affinity scopes seem to be the best option, the
performance picture interacts with the affinity scope and is a bit
complicated to fully discuss in this patch, so the behavior is made easily
selectable through wqattrs and sysfs and the next patch will add
documentation to discuss performance implications.
v2: pool->attrs->affn_strict is set to true for per-cpu worker_pools.

workqueue_attrs has two uses:
* to specify the required unouned workqueue properties by users
* to match worker_pool's properties to workqueues by core code
For example, if the user wants to restrict a workqueue to run only CPUs 0
and 2, and the two CPUs are on different affinity scopes, the workqueue's
attrs->cpumask would contains CPUs 0 and 2, and the workqueue would be
associated with two worker_pools, one with attrs->cpumask containing just
CPU 0 and the other CPU 2.
Workqueue wants to support non-strict affinity scopes where work items are
started in their matching affinity scopes but the scheduler is free to
migrate them outside the starting scopes, which can enable utilizing the
whole machine while maintaining most of the locality benefits from affinity
scopes.
To enable that, worker_pools need to distinguish the strict affinity that it
has to follow (because that's the restriction coming from the user) and the
soft affinity that it wants to apply when dispatching work items. Note that
two worker_pools with different soft dispatching requirements have to be
separate; otherwise, for example, we'd be ping-ponging worker threads across
NUMA boundaries constantly.
This patch adds workqueue_attrs->__pod_cpumask. The new field is double
underscored as it's only used internally to distinguish worker_pools. A
worker_pool's ->cpumask is now always the same as the online subset of
allowed CPUs of the associated workqueues, and ->__pod_cpumask is the pod's
subset of that ->cpumask. Going back to the example above, both worker_pools
would have ->cpumask containing both CPUs 0 and 2 but one's ->__pod_cpumask
would contain 0 while the other's 2.
* pool_allowed_cpus() is added. It returns the worker_pool's strict cpumask
that the pool's workers must stay within. This is currently always
->__pod_cpumask as all boundaries are still strict.
* As a workqueue_attrs can now track both the associated workqueues' cpumask
and its per-pod subset, wq_calc_pod_cpumask() no longer needs an external
out-argument. Drop @cpumask and instead store the result in
->__pod_cpumask.
* The above also simplifies apply_wqattrs_prepare() as the same
workqueue_attrs can be used to create all pods associated with a
workqueue. tmp_attrs is dropped.
* wq_update_pod() is updated to use wqattrs_equal() to test whether a pwq
update is needed instead of only comparing ->cpumask so that
->__pod_cpumask is compared too. It can directly compare ->__pod_cpumaks
but the code is easier to understand and more robust this way.
The only user-visible behavior change is that two workqueues with different
cpumasks no longer can share worker_pools even when their pod subsets
coincide. Going back to the example, let's say there's another workqueue
with cpumask 0, 2, 3, where 2 and 3 are in the same pod. It would be mapped
to two worker_pools - one with CPU 0, the other with 2 and 3. The former has
the same cpumask as the first pod of the earlier example and would have
shared the same worker_pool but that's no longer the case after this patch.
The worker_pools would have the same ->__pod_cpumask but their ->cpumask's
wouldn't match.
While this is necessary to support non-strict affinity scopes, there can be
further optimizations to maintain sharing among strict affinity scopes.
However, non-strict affinity scopes are going to be preferable for most use
cases and we don't see very diverse mixture of unbound workqueue cpumasks
anyway, so the additional overhead doesn't seem to justify the extra
complexity.
v2: - wq_update_pod() was incorrectly comparing target_attrs->__pod_cpumask
to pool->attrs->cpumask instead of its ->__pod_cpumask. Fix it by
using wqattrs_equal() for comparison instead.
- Per-cpu worker pools weren't initializing ->__pod_cpumask which caused
a subtle problem later on. Set it to cpumask_of(cpu) like ->cpumask.

Add three more affinity scopes - WQ_AFFN_CPU, SMT and CACHE - and make CACHE
the default. The code changes to actually add the additional scopes are
trivial.
Also add module parameter "workqueue.default_affinity_scope" to override the
default scope and "affinity_scope" sysfs file to configure it per workqueue.
wq_dump.py and documentations are updated accordingly.
This enables significant flexibility in configuring how unbound workqueues
behave. If affinity scope is set to "cpu", it'll behave close to a per-cpu
workqueue. On the other hand, "system" removes all locality boundaries.
Many modern machines have multiple L3 caches often while being mostly
uniform in terms of memory access. Thus, workqueue's previous behavior of
spreading work items in each NUMA node had negative performance implications
from unncessarily crossing L3 boundaries between issue and execution.
However, picking a finer grained affinity scope also has a downside in that
an issuer in one group can't utilize CPUs in other groups.
While dependent on the specifics of workload, there's usually a noticeable
penalty in crossing L3 boundaries, so let's default to CACHE. This issue
will be further addressed and documented with examples in future patches.

While renamed to pod, the code still assumes that the pods are defined by
NUMA boundaries. Let's generalize it:
* workqueue_attrs->affn_scope is added. Each enum represents the type of
boundaries that define the pods. There are currently two scopes -
WQ_AFFN_NUMA and WQ_AFFN_SYSTEM. The former is the same behavior as before
- one pod per NUMA node. The latter defines one global pod across the
whole system.
* struct wq_pod_type is added which describes how pods are configured for
each affnity scope. For each pod, it lists the member CPUs and the
preferred NUMA node for memory allocations. The reverse mapping from CPU
to pod is also available.
* wq_pod_enabled is dropped. Pod is now always enabled. The previously
disabled behavior is now implemented through WQ_AFFN_SYSTEM.
* get_unbound_pool() wants to determine the NUMA node to allocate memory
from for the new pool. The variables are renamed from node to pod but the
logic still assumes they're one and the same. Clearly distinguish them -
walk the WQ_AFFN_NUMA pods to find the matching pod and then use the pod's
NUMA node.
* wq_calc_pod_cpumask() was taking @pod but assumed that it was the NUMA
node. Take @cpu instead and determine the cpumask to use from the pod_type
matching @attrs.
* apply_wqattrs_prepare() is update to return ERR_PTR() on error instead of
NULL so that it can indicate -EINVAL on invalid affinity scopes.
This patch allows CPUs to be grouped into pods however desired per type.
While this patch causes some internal behavior changes, nothing material
should change for workqueue users.
v2: Trigger WARN_ON_ONCE() in wqattrs_pod_type() if affn_scope is
WQ_AFFN_NR_TYPES which indicates that the function is called with a
worker_pool's attrs instead of a workqueue's.

During boot, to initialize unbound CPU pods, wq_pod_init() was called from
workqueue_init(). This is early enough for NUMA nodes to be set up but
before SMP is brought up and CPU topology information is populated.
Workqueue is in the process of improving CPU locality for unbound workqueues
and will need access to topology information during pod init. This adds a
new init function workqueue_init_topology() which is called after CPU
topology information is available and replaces wq_pod_init().
As unbound CPU pods are now initialized after workqueues are activated, we
need to revisit the workqueues to apply the pod configuration. Workqueues
which are created before workqueue_init_topology() are set up so that they
always use the default worker pool. After pods are set up in
workqueue_init_topology(), wq_update_pod() is called on all existing
workqueues to update the pool associations accordingly.
Note that wq_update_pod_attrs_buf allocation is moved to
workqueue_init_early(). This isn't necessary right now but enables further
generalization of pod handling in the future.
This patch changes the initialization sequence but the end result should be
the same.

A pwq (pool_workqueue) represents an association between a workqueue and a
worker_pool. When a work item is queued, the workqueue selects the pwq to
use, which in turn determines the pool, and queues the work item to the pool
through the pwq. pwq is also what implements the maximum concurrency limit -
@max_active.
As a per-cpu workqueue should be assocaited with a different worker_pool on
each CPU, it always had per-cpu pwq's that are accessed through wq->cpu_pwq.
However, unbound workqueues were sharing a pwq within each NUMA node by
default. The sharing has several downsides:
* Because @max_active is per-pwq, the meaning of @max_active changes
depending on the machine configuration and whether workqueue NUMA locality
support is enabled.
* Makes per-cpu and unbound code deviate.
* Gets in the way of making workqueue CPU locality awareness more flexible.
This patch makes unbound workqueues use per-cpu pwq's the same way per-cpu
workqueues do by making the following changes:
* wq->numa_pwq_tbl[] is removed and unbound workqueues now use wq->cpu_pwq
just like per-cpu workqueues. wq->cpu_pwq is now RCU protected for unbound
workqueues.
* numa_pwq_tbl_install() is renamed to install_unbound_pwq() and installs
the specified pwq to the target CPU's wq->cpu_pwq.
* apply_wqattrs_prepare() now always allocates a separate pwq for each CPU
unless the workqueue is ordered. If ordered, all CPUs use wq->dfl_pwq.
This makes the return value of wq_calc_node_cpumask() unnecessary. It now
returns void.
* @max_active now means the same thing for both per-cpu and unbound
workqueues. WQ_UNBOUND_MAX_ACTIVE now equals WQ_MAX_ACTIVE and
documentation is updated accordingly. WQ_UNBOUND_MAX_ACTIVE is no longer
used in workqueue implementation and will be removed later.
* All unbound pwq operations which used to be per-numa-node are now per-cpu.
For most unbound workqueue users, this shouldn't cause noticeable changes.
Work item issue and completion will be a small bit faster, flush_workqueue()
would become a bit more expensive, and the total concurrency limit would
likely become higher. All @max_active==1 use cases are currently being
audited for conversion into alloc_ordered_workqueue() and they shouldn't be
affected once the audit and conversion is complete.
One area where the behavior change may be more noticeable is
workqueue_congested() as the reported congestion state is now per CPU
instead of NUMA node. There are only two users of this interface -
drivers/infiniband/hw/hfi1 and net/smc. Maintainers of both subsystems are
cc'd. Inputs on the behavior change would be very much appreciated.

Dave Airlie reports that gcc-13.1.1 has started complaining about some
of the workqueue code in 32-bit arm builds:
kernel/workqueue.c: In function ‘get_work_pwq’:
kernel/workqueue.c:713:24: error: cast to pointer from integer of different size [-Werror=int-to-pointer-cast]
713 | return (void *)(data & WORK_STRUCT_WQ_DATA_MASK);
| ^
[ ... a couple of other cases ... ]
and while it's not immediately clear exactly why gcc started complaining
about it now, I suspect it's some C23-induced enum type handlign fixup in
gcc-13 is the cause.
Whatever the reason for starting to complain, the code and data types
are indeed disgusting enough that the complaint is warranted.
The wq code ends up creating various "helper constants" (like that
WORK_STRUCT_WQ_DATA_MASK) using an enum type, which is all kinds of
confused. The mask needs to be 'unsigned long', not some unspecified
enum type.
To make matters worse, the actual "mask and cast to a pointer" is
repeated a couple of times, and the cast isn't even always done to the
right pointer, but - as the error case above - to a 'void *' with then
the compiler finishing the job.
That's now how we roll in the kernel.
So create the masks using the proper types rather than some ambiguous
enumeration, and use a nice helper that actually does the type
conversion in one well-defined place.
Incidentally, this magically makes clang generate better code. That,
admittedly, is really just a sign of clang having been seriously
confused before, and cleaning up the typing unconfuses the compiler too.

Since flush operation synchronously waits for completion, flushing
system-wide WQs (e.g. system_wq) might introduce possibility of deadlock
due to unexpected locking dependency. Tejun Heo commented at [1] that it
makes no sense at all to call flush_workqueue() on the shared WQs as the
caller has no idea what it's gonna end up waiting for.
Although there is flush_scheduled_work() which flushes system_wq WQ with
"Think twice before calling this function! It's very easy to get into
trouble if you don't take great care." warning message, syzbot found a
circular locking dependency caused by flushing system_wq WQ [2].
Therefore, let's change the direction to that developers had better use
their local WQs if flush_scheduled_work()/flush_workqueue(system_*_wq) is
inevitable.
Steps for converting system-wide WQs into local WQs are explained at [3],
and a conversion to stop flushing system-wide WQs is in progress. Now we
want some mechanism for preventing developers who are not aware of this
conversion from again start flushing system-wide WQs.
Since I found that WARN_ON() is complete but awkward approach for teaching
developers about this problem, let's use __compiletime_warning() for
incomplete but handy approach. For completeness, we will also insert
WARN_ON() into __flush_workqueue() after all in-tree users stopped calling
flush_scheduled_work().

Currently show_workqueue_state shows the state of all workqueues and of
all worker pools. In certain cases we may need to dump state of only a
specific workqueue or worker pool. For example in destroy_workqueue we
only need to show state of the workqueue which is getting destroyed.
So rename show_workqueue_state to show_all_workqueues(to signify it
dumps state of all busy workqueues) and divide it into more granular
functions (show_one_workqueue and show_one_worker_pool), that would show
states of individual workqueues and worker pools and can be used in
cases such as the one mentioned above.
Also, as mentioned earlier, make destroy_workqueue dump data pertaining
to only the workqueue that is being destroyed and make user(s) of
earlier interface(show_workqueue_state), use new interface
(show_all_workqueues).

There are two kinds of "delayed" work items in workqueue subsystem.
One is for timer-delayed work items which are visible to workqueue users.
The other kind is for work items delayed by active management which can
not be directly visible to workqueue users. We mixed the word "delayed"
for both kinds and caused somewhat ambiguity.
This patch renames the later one (delayed by active management) to
"inactive", because it is used for workqueue active management and
most of its related symbols are named with "active" or "activate".
All "delayed" and "DELAYED" are carefully checked and renamed one by
one to avoid accidentally changing the name of the other kind for
timer-delayed.
No functional change intended.
