futex: Verify under the lock if hash can be replaced
Once the global hash is requested there is no way back to switch back to
the per-task private hash. This is checked at the begin of the function.
It is possible that two threads simultaneously request the global hash
and both pass the initial check and block later on the
mm::futex_hash_lock. In this case the first thread performs the switch
to the global hash. The second thread will also attempt to switch to the
global hash and while doing so, accessing the nonexisting slot 1 of the
struct futex_private_hash.
The same applies if the hash is made immutable: There is no reference
counting and the hash must not be replaced.
Verify under mm_struct::futex_phash that neither the global hash nor an
immutable hash in use.

Extend the futex2 interface to be aware of mempolicy.
When FUTEX2_MPOL is specified and there is a MPOL_PREFERRED or
home_node specified covering the futex address, use that hash-map.
Notably, in this case the futex will go to the global node hashtable,
even if it is a PRIVATE futex.
When FUTEX2_NUMA|FUTEX2_MPOL is specified and the user specified node
value is FUTEX_NO_NODE, the MPOL lookup (as described above) will be
tried first before reverting to setting node to the local node.

futex: Implement FUTEX2_NUMA
Extend the futex2 interface to be numa aware.
When FUTEX2_NUMA is specified for a futex, the user value is extended
to two words (of the same size). The first is the user value we all
know, the second one will be the node to place this futex on.
struct futex_numa_32 {
u32 val;
u32 node;
};
When node is set to ~0, WAIT will set it to the current node_id such
that WAKE knows where to find it. If userspace corrupts the node value
between WAIT and WAKE, the futex will not be found and no wakeup will
happen.
When FUTEX2_NUMA is not set, the node is simply an extension of the
hash, such that traditional futexes are still interleaved over the
nodes.
This is done to avoid having to have a separate !numa hash-table.

futex: Allow to make the private hash immutable
My initial testing showed that:
perf bench futex hash
reported less operations/sec with private hash. After using the same
amount of buckets in the private hash as used by the global hash then
the operations/sec were about the same.
This changed once the private hash became resizable. This feature added
an RCU section and reference counting via atomic inc+dec operation into
the hot path.
The reference counting can be avoided if the private hash is made
immutable.
Extend PR_FUTEX_HASH_SET_SLOTS by a fourth argument which denotes if the
private should be made immutable. Once set (to true) the a further
resize is not allowed (same if set to global hash).
Add PR_FUTEX_HASH_GET_IMMUTABLE which returns true if the hash can not
be changed.
Update "perf bench" suite.

futex: Allow to resize the private local hash
The mm_struct::futex_hash_lock guards the futex_hash_bucket assignment/
replacement. The futex_hash_allocate()/ PR_FUTEX_HASH_SET_SLOTS
operation can now be invoked at runtime and resize an already existing
internal private futex_hash_bucket to another size.
The reallocation is based on an idea by Thomas Gleixner: The initial
allocation of struct futex_private_hash sets the reference count
to one. Every user acquires a reference on the local hash before using
it and drops it after it enqueued itself on the hash bucket. There is no
reference held while the task is scheduled out while waiting for the
wake up.
The resize process allocates a new struct futex_private_hash and drops
the initial reference. Synchronized with mm_struct::futex_hash_lock it
is checked if the reference counter for the currently used
mm_struct::futex_phash is marked as DEAD. If so, then all users enqueued
on the current private hash are requeued on the new private hash and the
new private hash is set to mm_struct::futex_phash. Otherwise the newly
allocated private hash is saved as mm_struct::futex_phash_new and the
rehashing and reassigning is delayed to the futex_hash() caller once the
reference counter is marked DEAD.
The replacement is not performed at rcuref_put() time because certain
callers, such as futex_wait_queue(), drop their reference after changing
the task state. This change will be destroyed once the futex_hash_lock
is acquired.
The user can change the number slots with PR_FUTEX_HASH_SET_SLOTS
multiple times. An increase and decrease is allowed and request blocks
until the assignment is done.
The private hash allocated at thread creation is changed from 16 to
16 <= 4 * number_of_threads <= global_hash_size
where number_of_threads can not exceed the number of online CPUs. Should
the user PR_FUTEX_HASH_SET_SLOTS then the auto scaling is disabled.
[peterz: reorganize the code to avoid state tracking and simplify new
object handling, block the user until changes are in effect, allow
increase and decrease of the hash].

futex: Add basic infrastructure for local task local hash
The futex hash is system wide and shared by all tasks. Each slot
is hashed based on futex address and the VMA of the thread. Due to
randomized VMAs (and memory allocations) the same logical lock (pointer)
can end up in a different hash bucket on each invocation of the
application. This in turn means that different applications may share a
hash bucket on the first invocation but not on the second and it is not
always clear which applications will be involved. This can result in
high latency's to acquire the futex_hash_bucket::lock especially if the
lock owner is limited to a CPU and can not be effectively PI boosted.
Introduce basic infrastructure for process local hash which is shared by
all threads of process. This hash will only be used for a
PROCESS_PRIVATE FUTEX operation.
The hashmap can be allocated via:
prctl(PR_FUTEX_HASH, PR_FUTEX_HASH_SET_SLOTS, num);
A `num' of 0 means that the global hash is used instead of a private
hash.
Other values for `num' specify the number of slots for the hash and the
number must be power of two, starting with two.
The prctl() returns zero on success. This function can only be used
before a thread is created.
The current status for the private hash can be queried via:
num = prctl(PR_FUTEX_HASH, PR_FUTEX_HASH_GET_SLOTS);
which return the current number of slots. The value 0 means that the
global hash is used. Values greater than 0 indicate the number of slots
that are used. A negative number indicates an error.
For optimisation, for the private hash jhash2() uses only two arguments
the address and the offset. This omits the VMA which is always the same.
[peterz: Use 0 for global hash. A bit shuffling and renaming. ]

futex: Introduce futex_q_lockptr_lock()
futex_lock_pi() and __fixup_pi_state_owner() acquire the
futex_q::lock_ptr without holding a reference assuming the previously
obtained hash bucket and the assigned lock_ptr are still valid. This
isn't the case once the private hash can be resized and becomes invalid
after the reference drop.
Introduce futex_q_lockptr_lock() to lock the hash bucket recorded in
futex_q::lock_ptr. The lock pointer is read in a RCU section to ensure
that it does not go away if the hash bucket has been replaced and the
old pointer has been observed. After locking the pointer needs to be
compared to check if it changed. If so then the hash bucket has been
replaced and the user has been moved to the new one and lock_ptr has
been updated. The lock operation needs to be redone in this case.
The locked hash bucket is not returned.
A special case is an early return in futex_lock_pi() (due to signal or
timeout) and a successful futex_wait_requeue_pi(). In both cases a valid
futex_q::lock_ptr is expected (and its matching hash bucket) but since
the waiter has been removed from the hash this can no longer be
guaranteed. Therefore before the waiter is removed and a reference is
acquired which is later dropped by the waiter to avoid a resize.
Add futex_q_lockptr_lock() and use it.
Acquire an additional reference in requeue_pi_wake_futex() and
futex_unlock_pi() while the futex_q is removed, denote this extra
reference in futex_q::drop_hb_ref and let the waiter drop the reference
in this case.

futex: Decrease the waiter count before the unlock operation
To support runtime resizing of the process private hash, it's required
to not use the obtained hash bucket once the reference count has been
dropped. The reference will be dropped after the unlock of the hash
bucket.
The amount of waiters is decremented after the unlock operation. There
is no requirement that this needs to happen after the unlock. The
increment happens before acquiring the lock to signal early that there
will be a waiter. The waiter can avoid blocking on the lock if it is
known that there will be no waiter.
There is no difference in terms of ordering if the decrement happens
before or after the unlock.
Decrease the waiter count before the unlock operation.
