Fix: high cpu usage in synchronize_rcu with long RCU read-side C.S.

We noticed that with this kind of scenario:
- application using urcu-mb, urcu-membarrier, urcu-signal, or urcu-bp,
- long RCU read-side critical sections, caused by e.g. long network I/O
  system calls,
- other short lived RCU critical sections running in other threads,
- very frequent invocation of call_rcu to enqueue callbacks,
lead to abnormally high CPU usage within synchronize_rcu() in the
call_rcu worker threads.

Inspection of the code gives us the answer: in urcu.c, we expect that if
we need to wait on a futex (wait_gp()), we expect to be able to end the
grace period within the next loop, having been notified by a
rcu_read_unlock(). However, this is not always the case: we can very
well be awakened by a rcu_read_unlock() executed on a thread running
short-lived RCU read-side critical sections, while the long-running RCU
read-side C.S. is still active. We end up in a situation where we
busy-wait for a very long time, because the counter is !=
RCU_QS_ACTIVE_ATTEMPTS until a 32-bit overflow happens (or more likely,
until we complete the grace period). We need to change the wait_loops ==
RCU_QS_ACTIVE_ATTEMPTS check into an inequality to use wait_gp() for
every attempts beyond RCU_QS_ACTIVE_ATTEMPTS loops.

urcu-bp.c also has this issue. Moreover, it uses usleep() rather than
poll() when dealing with long-running RCU read-side critical sections.
Turn the usleep 1000us (1ms) into a poll of 10ms. One of the advantage
of using poll() rather than usleep() is that it does not interact with
SIGALRM.

urcu-qsbr.c already checks for wait_loops >= RCU_QS_ACTIVE_ATTEMPTS, so
it is not affected by this issue.

Looking into these loops, however, shows that overflow of the loop
counter, although unlikely, would bring us back to a situation of high
cpu usage (a negative value well below RCU_QS_ACTIVE_ATTEMPTS).
Therefore, change the counter behavior so it stops incrementing when it
reaches RCU_QS_ACTIVE_ATTEMPTS, to eliminate overflow.

Fix: urcu-bp interaction with threads vs constructors/destructors

Add a reference counter for threads using urcu-bp, thus ensuring that
even if the urcu destructor is executed before each thread using RCU

Also, don't use URCU_TLS() within urcu_bp_thread_exit_notifier(). It

fixed by reference counting). Anyway, play safe, and pass the rcu_key

Keep ABI compatible with already compiled LGPL applications

Applications with _LGPL_SOURCE defined that were compiled against bogus
tls-compat.h header *and* which are using multiple urcu flavors
concurrently need to be told that they need to be recompiled against a
fixed tls-compat.h header. Detect these usage, and abort() with a
message error on stderr.

This is needed for stable-0.7 and stable-0.8 branches of userspace RCU
only. The upcoming 0.9 will bump the soname version, and therefore does
not have to care about this aspect of ABI compatibility.

Fix: tls-compat multi-lib conflict

When configured with the TLS pthread key fallback either:

- explicitly with ./configure --disable-compiler-tls,
- or if compiler TLS is not usable,

(this can be confirmed by looking at the configure output:
Thread Local Storage (TLS): pthread_getspecific().)

There is an issue when using multiple flavors of RCU within the same
program. Unit tests concerned:

tests/unit/test_urcu_multiflavor
tests/unit/test_urcu_multiflavor_dynlink

Vladimir Nikulichev noticed crashes when using this setup. The problem
can be pinpointed to a missing macro expansion in urcu/tls-compat.h:

looking at the output of

nm tests/unit/.libs/test_urcu_multiflavor :

                 U __tls_access_rcu_reader

this seems to be the issue. We're missing macro expansion in
tls-compat.h. With this commit, it becomes:

                 U __tls_access_rcu_reader_bp
                 U __tls_access_rcu_reader_mb
                 U __tls_access_rcu_reader_memb
                 U __tls_access_rcu_reader_sig

Please note that this affects an unusual configuration of userspace RCU
(with TLS pthread key fallback), needed for some BSD that don't support
compiler TLS. Strictly speaking, this requires bumping the URCU library
soname version major number, because it breaks the ABI presented to
applications on those unusual configurations.

A following commit will handle the ABI migration: for stable releases
(stable-0.7 and stable-0.8 branches), the ABI is kept compatible, and
bogus usage are detected. For the upcoming stable-0.9, the soname will
simply be bumped.

When compiling code using the rcu_xchg_pointer() family of functions,
with the following define:

 #define URCU_INLINE_SMALL_FUNCTIONS

prior to including urcu headers, when compiling with gcc with

Fix: urcu-bp segfault in glibc pthread_kill()

This fixes an issue that appears after this recent urcu-bp fix is
applied:

  Fix: urcu-bp: Bulletproof RCU arena resize bug

Prior to this fix, on Linux at least, the behavior was to allocate
(and leak) one memory map region per reader thread. It worked, except
for the unfortunate leak. The fact that it worked, even though not the
way we had intended it to, is is why testing did not raise any red flag.
That state of affairs has prevailed for a long time, but it was
side-tracking some issues. After fixing the underlying bug that was
causing the memory map leak, another issue appears.

The garbage collection scheme reclaiming the thread tracking structures
in urcu-bp fails in stress tests to due a bug in glibc (tested against
glibc 2.13 and 2.17). Under this workload, on a 2-core/hyperthreaded i7:

./test_urcu_bp 40 4 10

we can easily trigger a segmentation fault in the pthread_kill() code.

Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.

Fix urcu-bp: don't move registry

It is not correct to move the registry address range, since there are
external references from reader threads. This will trigger on workloads
with many threads.

Typically, on Linux, mremap can expand the existing range, which is OK.
However, if there is not enough space around the existing range, it may
try to map it at a different address, which is incorrect.

It is more likely that this bug will be observed on operating systems
where urcu uses the mmap/munmap fallback instead of mremap.

Moreover, prior to commit:

  "Fix: urcu-bp: Bulletproof RCU arena resize bug"

this issue was hidden by the fact that each thread ended up with their

rculist: ensure atomic updates of next pointers

in cds_list_add_rcu, use rcu_assign_pointer to update head->next
atomically and provide the memory barrier before publishing head->next.
Notice that we don't need the wmb() prior to store to prev, because RCU
traversals only go forward, and thus only use "next".

in cds_list_del_rcu, use CMM_STORE_SHARED() to store to elem->prev->next
atomically.
