workqueue: mark init_workqueues() as early_initcall()
Mark init_workqueues() as early_initcall() and thus it will be initialized
before smp bringup. init_workqueues() registers for the hotcpu notifier
and thus it should cope with the processors that are brought online after
the workqueues are initialized.
x86 smp bringup code uses workqueues and uses a workaround for the
cold boot process (as the workqueues are initialized post smp_init()).
Marking init_workqueues() as early_initcall() will pave the way for
cleaning up this code.

workqueue: fix how cpu number is stored in work->data
Once a work starts execution, its data contains the cpu number it was
on instead of pointing to cwq. This is added by commit
7a22ad75
(workqueue: carry cpu number in work data once execution starts) to
reliably determine the work was last on even if the workqueue itself
was destroyed inbetween.
Whether data points to a cwq or contains a cpu number was
distinguished by comparing the value against PAGE_OFFSET. The
assumption was that a cpu number should be below PAGE_OFFSET while a
pointer to cwq should be above it. However, on architectures which
use separate address spaces for user and kernel spaces, this doesn't
hold as PAGE_OFFSET is zero.
Fix it by using an explicit flag, WORK_STRUCT_CWQ, to mark what the
data field contains. If the flag is set, it's pointing to a cwq;
otherwise, it contains a cpu number.

workqueue: implement concurrency managed dynamic worker pool
Instead of creating a worker for each cwq and putting it into the
shared pool, manage per-cpu workers dynamically.
Works aren't supposed to be cpu cycle hogs and maintaining just enough
concurrency to prevent work processing from stalling due to lack of
processing context is optimal. gcwq keeps the number of concurrent
active workers to minimum but no less. As long as there's one or more
running workers on the cpu, no new worker is scheduled so that works
can be processed in batch as much as possible but when the last
running worker blocks, gcwq immediately schedules new worker so that
the cpu doesn't sit idle while there are works to be processed.
gcwq always keeps at least single idle worker around. When a new
worker is necessary and the worker is the last idle one, the worker
assumes the role of "manager" and manages the worker pool -
ie. creates another worker. Forward-progress is guaranteed by having
dedicated rescue workers for workqueues which may be necessary while
creating a new worker. When the manager is having problem creating a
new worker, mayday timer activates and rescue workers are summoned to
the cpu and execute works which might be necessary to create new
workers.
Trustee is expanded to serve the role of manager while a CPU is being
taken down and stays down. As no new works are supposed to be queued
on a dead cpu, it just needs to drain all the existing ones. Trustee
continues to try to create new workers and summon rescuers as long as
there are pending works. If the CPU is brought back up while the
trustee is still trying to drain the gcwq from the previous offlining,
the trustee will kill all idles ones and tell workers which are still
busy to rebind to the cpu, and pass control over to gcwq which assumes
the manager role as necessary.
Concurrency managed worker pool reduces the number of workers
drastically. Only workers which are necessary to keep the processing
going are created and kept. Also, it reduces cache footprint by
avoiding unnecessarily switching contexts between different workers.
Please note that this patch does not increase max_active of any
workqueue. All workqueues can still only process one work per cpu.

workqueue: use shared worklist and pool all workers per cpu
Use gcwq->worklist instead of cwq->worklist and break the strict
association between a cwq and its worker. All works queued on a cpu
are queued on gcwq->worklist and processed by any available worker on
the gcwq.
As there no longer is strict association between a cwq and its worker,
whether a work is executing can now only be determined by calling
[__]find_worker_executing_work().
After this change, the only association between a cwq and its worker
is that a cwq puts a worker into shared worker pool on creation and
kills it on destruction. As all workqueues are still limited to
max_active of one, this means that there are always at least as many
workers as active works and thus there's no danger for deadlock.
The break of strong association between cwqs and workers requires
somewhat clumsy changes to current_is_keventd() and
destroy_workqueue(). Dynamic worker pool management will remove both
clumsy changes. current_is_keventd() won't be necessary at all as the
only reason it exists is to avoid queueing a work from a work which
will be allowed just fine. The clumsy part of destroy_workqueue() is
added because a worker can only be destroyed while idle and there's no
guarantee a worker is idle when its wq is going down. With dynamic
pool management, workers are not associated with workqueues at all and
only idle ones will be submitted to destroy_workqueue() so the code
won't be necessary anymore.

pool and suboptimal in that it ends up crossing cpu boundaries often.
Reimplement st workqueue using dynamic single cpu binding and
cwq->limit. WQ_SINGLE_THREAD is replaced with WQ_SINGLE_CPU. In a
single cpu workqueue, at most single cwq is bound to the wq at any
given time. Arbitration is done using atomic accesses to
wq->single_cpu when queueing a work. Once bound, the binding stays
till the workqueue is drained.
Note that the binding is never broken while a workqueue is frozen.
This is because idle cwqs may have works waiting in delayed_works
queue while frozen. On thaw, the cwq is restarted if there are any
delayed works or unbound otherwise.
When combined with max_active limit of 1, single cpu workqueue has
exactly the same execution properties as the original single thread
workqueue while allowing sharing of per-cpu workers.

workqueue: reimplement CPU hotplugging support using trustee
Reimplement CPU hotplugging support using trustee thread. On CPU
down, a trustee thread is created and each step of CPU down is
executed by the trustee and workqueue_cpu_callback() simply drives and
waits for trustee state transitions.
CPU down operation no longer waits for works to be drained but trustee
sticks around till all pending works have been completed. If CPU is
brought back up while works are still draining,
workqueue_cpu_callback() tells trustee to step down and tell workers
to rebind to the cpu.
As it's difficult to tell whether cwqs are empty if it's freezing or
frozen, trustee doesn't consider draining to be complete while a gcwq
is freezing or frozen (tracked by new GCWQ_FREEZING flag). Also,
workers which get unbound from their cpu are marked with WORKER_ROGUE.
Trustee based implementation doesn't bring any new feature at this
point but it will be used to manage worker pool when dynamic shared
worker pool is implemented.

workqueue: implement worker states
Implement worker states. After created, a worker is STARTED. While a
worker isn't processing a work, it's IDLE and chained on
gcwq->idle_list. While processing a work, a worker is BUSY and
chained on gcwq->busy_hash. Also, gcwq now counts the number of all
workers and idle ones.
worker_thread() is restructured to reflect state transitions.
cwq->more_work is removed and waking up a worker makes it check for
events. A worker is killed by setting DIE flag while it's IDLE and
waking it up.
This gives gcwq better visibility of what's going on and allows it to
find out whether a work is executing quickly which is necessary to
have multiple workers processing the same cwq.

workqueue: reimplement workqueue flushing using color coded works
Reimplement workqueue flushing using color coded works. wq has the
current work color which is painted on the works being issued via
cwqs. Flushing a workqueue is achieved by advancing the current work
colors of cwqs and waiting for all the works which have any of the
previous colors to drain.
Currently there are 16 possible colors, one is reserved for no color
and 15 colors are useable allowing 14 concurrent flushes. When color
space gets full, flush attempts are batched up and processed together
when color frees up, so even with many concurrent flushers, the new
implementation won't build up huge queue of flushers which has to be
processed one after another.
Only works which are queued via __queue_work() are colored. Works
which are directly put on queue using insert_work() use NO_COLOR and
don't participate in workqueue flushing. Currently only works used
for work-specific flush fall in this category.
This new implementation leaves only cleanup_workqueue_thread() as the
user of flush_cpu_workqueue(). Just make its users use
flush_workqueue() and kthread_stop() directly and kill
cleanup_workqueue_thread(). As workqueue flushing doesn't use barrier
request anymore, the comment describing the complex synchronization
around it in cleanup_workqueue_thread() is removed together with the
function.
This new implementation is to allow having and sharing multiple
workers per cpu.

work->data field is used for two purposes. It points to cwq it's

every architecture. However, future changes will need more flag bits.
On SMP, the percpu allocator is capable of honoring larger alignment
(there are other users which depend on it) and larger alignment works
just fine. On UP, percpu allocator is a thin wrapper around
kzalloc/kfree() and don't honor alignment request.
This patch introduces WORK_STRUCT_FLAG_BITS and implements
alloc/free_cwqs() which guarantees max(1 << WORK_STRUCT_FLAG_BITS,

check for that. It's not clear to me if it can also return NULL
pointers or not so I left the original NULL pointer check as is.

net: deliver skbs on inactive slaves to exact matches
Currently, the accelerated receive path for VLAN's will
drop packets if the real device is an inactive slave and
is not one of the special pkts tested for in
skb_bond_should_drop(). This behavior is different then
the non-accelerated path and for pkts over a bonded vlan.
For example,
vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx
will be dropped in the vlan path and not delivered to any
packet handlers at all. However,
bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx
and
bond0 -> ethx
will be delivered to handlers that match the exact dev,
because the VLAN path checks the real_dev which is not a
slave and netif_recv_skb() doesn't drop frames but only
delivers them to exact matches.
This patch adds a sk_buff flag which is used for tagging
skbs that would previously been dropped and allows the
skb to continue to skb_netif_recv(). Here we add
logic to check for the deliver_no_wcard flag and if it
is set only deliver to handlers that match exactly. This
makes both paths above consistent and gives pkt handlers
a way to identify skbs that come from inactive slaves.
Without this patch in some configurations skbs will be
delivered to handlers with exact matches and in others
be dropped out right in the vlan path.
I have tested the following 4 configurations in failover modes
and load balancing modes.
# bond0 -> ethx
# vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx
# bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx
# bond0 -> ethx
