Subject: rcu: Make ksoftirqd do RCU quiescent states
From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Date: Wed, 5 Oct 2011 11:45:18 -0700
Implementing RCU-bh in terms of RCU-preempt makes the system vulnerable
to network-based denial-of-service attacks. This patch therefore
makes __do_softirq() invoke rcu_bh_qs(), but only when __do_softirq()
is running in ksoftirqd context. A wrapper layer in interposed so that
other calls to __do_softirq() avoid invoking rcu_bh_qs(). The underlying
function __do_softirq_common() does the actual work.
The reason that rcu_bh_qs() is bad in these non-ksoftirqd contexts is
that there might be a local_bh_enable() inside an RCU-preempt read-side
critical section. This local_bh_enable() can invoke __do_softirq()
directly, so if __do_softirq() were to invoke rcu_bh_qs() (which just
calls rcu_preempt_qs() in the PREEMPT_RT_FULL case), there would be
an illegal RCU-preempt quiescent state in the middle of an RCU-preempt
read-side critical section. Therefore, quiescent states can only happen
in cases where __do_softirq() is invoked directly from ksoftirqd.
