Paul E. McKenney d1b222c6be rcu/nocb: Add bypass callback queueing
Use of the rcu_data structure's segmented ->cblist for no-CBs CPUs
takes advantage of unrelated grace periods, thus reducing the memory
footprint in the face of floods of call_rcu() invocations.  However,
the ->cblist field is a more-complex rcu_segcblist structure which must
be protected via locking.  Even though there are only three entities
which can acquire this lock (the CPU invoking call_rcu(), the no-CBs
grace-period kthread, and the no-CBs callbacks kthread), the contention
on this lock is excessive under heavy stress.

This commit therefore greatly reduces contention by provisioning
an rcu_cblist structure field named ->nocb_bypass within the
rcu_data structure.  Each no-CBs CPU is permitted only a limited
number of enqueues onto the ->cblist per jiffy, controlled by a new
nocb_nobypass_lim_per_jiffy kernel boot parameter that defaults to
about 16 enqueues per millisecond (16 * 1000 / HZ).  When that limit is
exceeded, the CPU instead enqueues onto the new ->nocb_bypass.

The ->nocb_bypass is flushed into the ->cblist every jiffy or when
the number of callbacks on ->nocb_bypass exceeds qhimark, whichever
happens first.  During call_rcu() floods, this flushing is carried out
by the CPU during the course of its call_rcu() invocations.  However,
a CPU could simply stop invoking call_rcu() at any time.  The no-CBs
grace-period kthread therefore carries out less-aggressive flushing
(every few jiffies or when the number of callbacks on ->nocb_bypass
exceeds (2 * qhimark), whichever comes first).  This means that the
no-CBs grace-period kthread cannot be permitted to do unbounded waits
while there are callbacks on ->nocb_bypass.  A ->nocb_bypass_timer is
used to provide the needed wakeups.
