2014-04-07lglock: map to spinlock when !CONFIG_SMPJosh Triplett1-1/+2
When the system has only one CPU, lglock is effectively a spinlock; map it directly to spinlock to eliminate the indirection and duplicate code. In addition to removing overhead, this drops 1.6k of code with a defconfig modified to have !CONFIG_SMP, and 1.1k with a minimal config.

2014-03-12locking/mutex: Fix debug checksPeter Zijlstra2-0/+13
OK, so commit: 1d8fe7dc8078 ("locking/mutexes: Unlock the mutex without the wait_lock") generates this boot warning when CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES=y: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 139 at /usr/src/linux-2.6/kernel/locking/mutex-debug.c:82 debug_mutex_unlock+0x155/0x180() DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(lock->owner != current) And that makes sense, because as soon as we release the lock a new owner can come in... One would think that !__mutex_slowpath_needs_to_unlock() implementations suffer the same, but for DEBUG we fall back to mutex-null.h which has an unconditional 1 for that. The mutex debug code requires the mutex to be unlocked after doing the debug checks, otherwise it can find inconsistent state.

2014-03-11locking/mutexes: Unlock the mutex without the wait_lockJason Low1-4/+4
When running workloads that have high contention in mutexes on an 8 socket machine, mutex spinners would often spin for a long time with no lock owner. The main reason why this is occuring is in __mutex_unlock_common_slowpath(), if __mutex_slowpath_needs_to_unlock(), then the owner needs to acquire the mutex->wait_lock before releasing the mutex (setting lock->count to 1). When the wait_lock is contended, this delays the mutex from being released. We should be able to release the mutex without holding the wait_lock.

2014-03-11locking/mutexes: Modify the way optimistic spinners are queuedJason Low1-9/+6
The mutex->spin_mlock was introduced in order to ensure that only 1 thread spins for lock acquisition at a time to reduce cache line contention. When lock->owner is NULL and the lock->count is still not 1, the spinner(s) will continually release and obtain the lock->spin_mlock. This can generate quite a bit of overhead/contention, and also might just delay the spinner from getting the lock. This patch modifies the way optimistic spinners are queued by queuing before entering the optimistic spinning loop as oppose to acquiring before every call to mutex_spin_on_owner(). So in situations where the spinner requires a few extra spins before obtaining the lock, then there will only be 1 spinner trying to get the lock and it will avoid the overhead from unnecessarily unlocking and locking the spin_mlock.

2014-02-22sched: Consider pi boosting in setscheduler()Thomas Gleixner1-0/+12
If a PI boosted task policy/priority is modified by a setscheduler() call we unconditionally dequeue and requeue the task if it is on the runqueue even if the new priority is lower than the current effective boosted priority. This can result in undesired reordering of the priority bucket list. If the new priority is less or equal than the current effective we just store the new parameters in the task struct and leave the scheduler class and the runqueue untouched. This is handled when the task deboosts itself. Only if the new priority is higher than the effective boosted priority we apply the change immediately.

2014-02-09lockdep: Make held_lock->check and "int check" argument boolOleg Nesterov1-7/+4
The "int check" argument of lock_acquire() and held_lock->check are misleading. This is actually a boolean: 2 means "true", everything else is "false". And there is no need to pass 1 or 0 to lock_acquire() depending on CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING, __lock_acquire() checks prove_locking at the start and clears "check" if !CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING. Note: probably we can simply kill this member/arg. The only explicit user of check => 0 is rcu_lock_acquire(), perhaps we can change it to use lock_acquire(trylock =>, read => 2). __lockdep_no_validate means check => 0 implicitly, but we can change validate_chain() to check hlock->instance->key instead.

Extracting the MCS code from mutex.c and put into its own file allow us to reuse this code easily. We also inline mcs_spin_lock and mcs_spin_unlock functions for better efficiency. Note that using the smp_load_acquire/smp_store_release pair used in mcs_lock and mcs_unlock is not sufficient to form a full memory barrier across cpus for many architectures (except x86). For applications that absolutely need a full barrier across multiple cpus with mcs_unlock and mcs_lock pair, smp_mb__after_unlock_lock() should be used after mcs_lock. Reviewed-by: Paul E.

2014-01-13sched/deadline: Add SCHED_DEADLINE inheritance logicDario Faggioli2-9/+23
Some method to deal with rt-mutexes and make sched_dl interact with the current PI-coded is needed, raising all but trivial issues, that needs (according to us) to be solved with some restructuring of the pi-code (i.e., going toward a proxy execution-ish implementation). This is under development, in the meanwhile, as a temporary solution, what this commits does is: - ensure a pi-lock owner with waiters is never throttled down. Instead, when it runs out of runtime, it immediately gets replenished and it's deadline is postponed; - the scheduling parameters (relative deadline and default runtime) used for that replenishments --during the whole period it holds the pi-lock-- are the ones of the waiting task with earliest deadline. Acting this way, we provide some kind of boosting to the lock-owner, still by using the existing (actually, slightly modified by the previous commit) pi-architecture. We would stress the fact that this is only a surely needed, all but clean solution to the problem. In the end it's only a way to re-start discussion within the community.

Turn the pi-chains from plist to rb-tree, in the rt_mutex code, and provide a proper comparison function for -deadline and -priority tasks. This is done mainly because: - classical prio field of the plist is just an int, which might not be enough for representing a deadline; - manipulating such a list would become O(nr_deadline_tasks), which might be to much, as the number of -deadline task increases. Therefore, an rb-tree is used, and tasks are queued in it according to the following logic: - among two -priority (i.e., SCHED_BATCH/OTHER/RR/FIFO) tasks, the one with the higher (lower, actually!) prio wins; - among a -priority and a -deadline task, the latter always wins; - among two -deadline tasks, the one with the earliest deadline wins. Queueing and dequeueing functions are changed accordingly, for both the list of a task's pi-waiters and the list of tasks blocked on a pi-lock.

2013-12-17mutexes: Give more informative mutex warning in the !lock->owner caseChuansheng Liu1-1/+6
When mutex debugging is enabled and an imbalanced mutex_unlock() is called, we get the following, slightly confusing warning: [ 364.208284] DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(lock->owner != current) But in that case the warning is due to an imbalanced mutex_unlock() call, and the lock->owner is NULL - so the message is misleading. So improve the message by testing for this case specifically: DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(!lock->owner) Signed-off-by: Liu, Chuansheng <chuansheng.liu@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Paul E.

2013-11-27lockdep: Be nice about building from userspaceSasha Levin1-0/+4
Lockdep is an awesome piece of code which detects locking issues which are relevant both to userspace and kernelspace. We can easily make lockdep work in userspace since there is really no kernel spacific magic going on in the code. All we need is to wrap two functions which are used by lockdep and are very kernel specific. Doing that will allow tools located in tools/ to easily utilize lockdep's code for their own use.
