locking/lockref: Use try_cmpxchg64 in CMPXCHG_LOOP macro
Use try_cmpxchg64 instead of cmpxchg64 in CMPXCHG_LOOP macro. x86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg (and related move instruction in front of cmpxchg). The main loop of lockref_get improves from: 13: 48 89 c1 mov %rax,%rcx 16: 48 c1 f9 20 sar $0x20,%rcx 1a: 83 c1 01 add $0x1,%ecx 1d: 48 89 ce mov %rcx,%rsi 20: 89 c1 mov %eax,%ecx 22: 48 89 d0 mov %rdx,%rax 25: 48 c1 e6 20 shl $0x20,%rsi 29: 48 09 f1 or %rsi,%rcx 2c: f0 48 0f b1 4d 00 lock cmpxchg %rcx,0x0(%rbp) 32: 48 39 d0 cmp %rdx,%rax 35: 75 17 jne 4e <lockref_get+0x4e> to: 13: 48 89 ca mov %rcx,%rdx 16: 48 c1 fa 20 sar $0x20,%rdx 1a: 83 c2 01 add $0x1,%edx 1d: 48 89 d6 mov %rdx,%rsi 20: 89 ca mov %ecx,%edx 22: 48 c1 e6 20 shl $0x20,%rsi 26: 48 09 f2 or %rsi,%rdx 29: f0 48 0f b1 55 00 lock cmpxchg %rdx,0x0(%rbp) 2f: 75 02 jne 33 <lockref_get+0x33> [ Michael Ellerman and Mark Rutland confirm that code generation on powerpc and arm64 respectively is also ok, even though they do not have a native arch_try_cmpxchg() implementation, and rely on the default fallback case - Linus ] Signed-off-by: Uros Bizjak <ubizjak@gmail.com> Tested-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au> Tested-by: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: Waiman.Long@hp.com Cc: paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
