Hi,
Please find the upcoming changes for CONFIG_PREEMPT_LAZY in RCU. The changes can also be found at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rcu/linux.git lazypreempt.2025.02.24a
Paul & Ankur, I put patch #7 and #8 (bug fixes in rcutorture) before patch #9 (which is the one that enables non-preemptible RCU in preemptible kernel), because I want to avoid introduce a bug in-between a series, appreciate it if you can double check on this. Thanks!
Regards, Boqun

rcu_all_qs() is defined for !CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU but the declaration is conditioned on CONFIG_PREEMPTION.
With CONFIG_PREEMPT_LAZY, CONFIG_PREEMPTION=y does not imply CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=y.
Decouple the two.

Replace mentions of PREEMPT_AUTO with PREEMPT_LAZY.
Also, since PREMPT_LAZY implies PREEMPTION, we can reduce the TASKS_RCU selection criteria from this:
NEED_TASKS_RCU && (PREEMPTION || PREEMPT_AUTO)
to this:
NEED_TASKS_RCU && PREEMPTION

rcu_read_unlock_strict() can be called with preemption enabled which can make for an unstable rdp and a racy norm value.
Fix this by dropping the preempt-count in __rcu_read_unlock() after the call to rcu_read_unlock_strict(), adjusting the preempt-count check appropriately.

From: Ankur Arora ankur.a.arora@oracle.com
With PREEMPT_RCU=n, cond_resched() provides urgently needed quiescent states for read-side critical sections via rcu_all_qs(). One reason why this was needed: lacking preempt-count, the tick handler has no way of knowing whether it is executing in a read-side critical section or not.
With (PREEMPT_LAZY=y, PREEMPT_DYNAMIC=n), we get (PREEMPT_COUNT=y, PREEMPT_RCU=n). In this configuration cond_resched() is a stub and does not provide quiescent states via rcu_all_qs(). (PREEMPT_RCU=y provides this information via rcu_read_unlock() and its nesting counter.)
So, use the availability of preempt_count() to report quiescent states in rcu_flavor_sched_clock_irq().

From: Ankur Arora ankur.a.arora@oracle.com
To reduce RCU noise for nohz_full configurations, osnoise depends on cond_resched() providing quiescent states for PREEMPT_RCU=n configurations. For PREEMPT_RCU=y configurations -- where cond_resched() is a stub -- we do this by directly calling rcu_momentary_eqs().
With (PREEMPT_LAZY=y, PREEMPT_DYNAMIC=n), however, we have a configuration with (PREEMPTION=y, PREEMPT_RCU=n) where neither of the above can help.
Handle that by providing an explicit quiescent state here for all configurations.
As mentioned above this is not needed for non-stubbed cond_resched(), but, providing a quiescent state here just pulls in one that a future cond_resched() would provide, so doesn't cause any extra work for this configuration.

The rcutorture_one_extend_check() function's last check assumes that if cur_ops->readlock_nesting() returns greater than zero, either the RCUTORTURE_RDR_RCU_1 or the RCUTORTURE_RDR_RCU_2 bit must be set, that is, there must be at least one rcu_read_lock() in effect.
This works for preemptible RCU and for non-preemptible RCU running in a non-preemptible kernel. But it fails for non-preemptible RCU running in a preemptible kernel because then RCU's cur_ops->readlock_nesting() function, which is rcu_torture_readlock_nesting(), will return the PREEMPT_MASK mask bits from preempt_count(). The result will be greater than zero if preemption is disabled, including by the RCUTORTURE_RDR_PREEMPT and RCUTORTURE_RDR_SCHED bits.
This commit therefore adjusts this check to take into account the case fo non-preemptible RCU running in a preemptible kernel.

From: Ankur Arora ankur.a.arora@oracle.com
PREEMPT_LAZY can be enabled stand-alone or alongside PREEMPT_DYNAMIC which allows for dynamic switching of preemption models.
The choice of PREEMPT_RCU or not, however, is fixed at compile time.
Given that PREEMPT_RCU makes some trade-offs to optimize for latency as opposed to throughput, configurations with limited preemption might prefer the stronger forward-progress guarantees of PREEMPT_RCU=n.
Accordingly, explicitly limit PREEMPT_RCU=y to the latency oriented preemption models: PREEMPT, PREEMPT_RT, and the runtime configurable model PREEMPT_DYNAMIC.
This means the throughput oriented models, PREEMPT_NONE, PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY, and PREEMPT_LAZY will run with PREEMPT_RCU=n.

Please find the upcoming changes for CONFIG_PREEMPT_LAZY in RCU. The changes can also be found at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rcu/linux.git lazypreempt.2025.02.24a
Paul & Ankur, I put patch #7 and #8 (bug fixes in rcutorture) before patch #9 (which is the one that enables non-preemptible RCU in preemptible kernel), because I want to avoid introduce a bug in-between a series, appreciate it if you can double check on this. Thanks!
Makes sense to me.

Looks good to me as well, and thank you for spotting this!
