[PATCH v4 0/3] locking/rwsem: Rwsem rearchitecture part 0

[PATCH v4 0/3] locking/rwsem: Rwsem rearchitecture part 0

[Waiman Long]

v4:
 - Remove rwsem-spinlock.c and make all archs use rwsem-xadd.c.

v3:
 - Optimize __down_read_trylock() for the uncontended case as suggested
   by Linus.

v2:
 - Add patch 2 to optimize __down_read_trylock() as suggested by PeterZ.
 - Update performance test data in patch 1.

The goal of this patchset is to remove the architecture specific files
for rwsem-xadd to make it easer to add enhancements in the later rwsem
patches. It also removes the legacy rwsem-spinlock.c file and make all
the architectures use one single implementation of rwsem - rwsem-xadd.c.

Waiman Long (3):
  locking/rwsem: Remove arch specific rwsem files
  locking/rwsem: Remove rwsem-spinlock.c & use rwsem-xadd.c for all
    archs
  locking/rwsem: Optimize down_read_trylock()

[PATCH v4 1/3] locking/rwsem: Remove arch specific rwsem files

[Waiman Long]

As the generic rwsem-xadd code is using the appropriate acquire and
release versions of the atomic operations, the arch specific rwsem.h
files will not be that much faster than the generic code as long as the
atomic functions are properly implemented. So we can remove those arch
specific rwsem.h and stop building asm/rwsem.h to reduce maintenance
effort.

Currently, only x86, alpha and ia64 have implemented architecture
specific fast paths. I don't have access to alpha and ia64 systems for
testing, but they are legacy systems that are not likely to be updated
to the latest kernel anyway.

By using a rwsem microbenchmark, the total locking rates on a 4-socket
56-core 112-thread x86-64 system before and after the patch were as
follows (mixed means equal # of read and write locks):

                      Before Patch              After Patch
   # of Threads  wlock   rlock   mixed     wlock   rlock   mixed

        8         6,762  13,412     764     6,826  13,652     726

       32         6,145  15,286     496     5,549  15,487     511

There were some run-to-run variations for the multi-thread tests. For
x86-64, using the generic C code fast path seems to be a little bit
faster than the assembly version with low lock contention.  Looking at
the assembly version of the fast paths, there are assembly to/from C
code wrappers that save and restore all the callee-clobbered registers
(7 registers on x86-64). The assembly generated from the generic C
code doesn't need to do that. That may explain the slight performance
gain here.

The generic asm rwsem.h can also be merged into kernel/locking/rwsem.h
with no code change as no other code other than those under
kernel/locking needs to access the internal rwsem macros and functions.

-/* rwsem.h: R/W semaphores implemented using XADD/CMPXCHG for i486+
- *
- * Written by David Howells (dhowells@redhat.com).
- *
- * Derived from asm-x86/semaphore.h
- *
- *
- * The MSW of the count is the negated number of active writers and waiting
- * lockers, and the LSW is the total number of active locks
- *
- * The lock count is initialized to 0 (no active and no waiting lockers).
- *
- * When a writer subtracts WRITE_BIAS, it'll get 0xffff0001 for the case of an
- * uncontended lock. This can be determined because XADD returns the old value.
- * Readers increment by 1 and see a positive value when uncontended, negative
- * if there are writers (and maybe) readers waiting (in which case it goes to
- * sleep).
- *
- * The value of WAITING_BIAS supports up to 32766 waiting processes. This can
- * be extended to 65534 by manually checking the whole MSW rather than relying
- * on the S flag.
- *
- * The value of ACTIVE_BIAS supports up to 65535 active processes.
- *
- * This should be totally fair - if anything is waiting, a process that wants a
- * lock will go to the back of the queue. When the currently active lock is
- * released, if there's a writer at the front of the queue, then that and only
- * that will be woken up; if there's a bunch of consecutive readers at the
- * front, then they'll all be woken up, but no other readers will be.

[PATCH v4 2/3] locking/rwsem: Remove rwsem-spinlock.c & use rwsem-xadd.c for all archs

[Waiman Long]

Currently, we have two different implementation of rwsem:
 1) CONFIG_RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK (rwsem-spinlock.c)
 2) CONFIG_RWSEM_XCHGADD_ALGORITHM (rwsem-xadd.c)

As we are going to use a single generic implementation for rwsem-xadd.c
and no architecture-specific code will be needed, there is no point
in keeping two different implementations of rwsem. In most cases, the
performance of rwsem-spinlock.c will be worse. It also doesn't get all
the performance tuning and optimizations that had been implemented in
rwsem-xadd.c over the years.

For simplication, we are going to remove rwsem-spinlock.c and make all
architectures use a single implementation of rwsem - rwsem-xadd.c.

All references to RWSEM_GENERIC_SPINLOCK and RWSEM_XCHGADD_ALGORITHM
in the code are removed.

Another nice cleanup, and it looks like the optimistic spinning in the xadd
implementation is predicated on ARCH_SUPPORTS_ATOMIC_RMW, so we're all good
there too.

[PATCH v4 3/3] locking/rwsem: Optimize down_read_trylock()

[Waiman Long]

Modify __down_read_trylock() to optimize for an unlocked rwsem and make
it generate slightly better code.

Before this patch, down_read_trylock:

   0x0000000000000000 <+0>:     callq  0x5 <down_read_trylock+5>
   0x0000000000000005 <+5>:     jmp    0x18 <down_read_trylock+24>
   0x0000000000000007 <+7>:     lea    0x1(%rdx),%rcx
   0x000000000000000b <+11>:    mov    %rdx,%rax
   0x000000000000000e <+14>:    lock cmpxchg %rcx,(%rdi)
   0x0000000000000013 <+19>:    cmp    %rax,%rdx
   0x0000000000000016 <+22>:    je     0x23 <down_read_trylock+35>
   0x0000000000000018 <+24>:    mov    (%rdi),%rdx
   0x000000000000001b <+27>:    test   %rdx,%rdx
   0x000000000000001e <+30>:    jns    0x7 <down_read_trylock+7>
   0x0000000000000020 <+32>:    xor    %eax,%eax
   0x0000000000000022 <+34>:    retq
   0x0000000000000023 <+35>:    mov    %gs:0x0,%rax
   0x000000000000002c <+44>:    or     $0x3,%rax
   0x0000000000000030 <+48>:    mov    %rax,0x20(%rdi)
   0x0000000000000034 <+52>:    mov    $0x1,%eax
   0x0000000000000039 <+57>:    retq

After patch, down_read_trylock:

   0x0000000000000000 <+0>:	callq  0x5 <down_read_trylock+5>
   0x0000000000000005 <+5>:	xor    %eax,%eax
   0x0000000000000007 <+7>:	lea    0x1(%rax),%rdx
   0x000000000000000b <+11>:	lock cmpxchg %rdx,(%rdi)
   0x0000000000000010 <+16>:	jne    0x29 <down_read_trylock+41>
   0x0000000000000012 <+18>:	mov    %gs:0x0,%rax
   0x000000000000001b <+27>:	or     $0x3,%rax
   0x000000000000001f <+31>:	mov    %rax,0x20(%rdi)
   0x0000000000000023 <+35>:	mov    $0x1,%eax
   0x0000000000000028 <+40>:	retq
   0x0000000000000029 <+41>:	test   %rax,%rax
   0x000000000000002c <+44>:	jns    0x7 <down_read_trylock+7>
   0x000000000000002e <+46>:	xor    %eax,%eax
   0x0000000000000030 <+48>:	retq

By using a rwsem microbenchmark, the down_read_trylock() rate (with a
load of 10 to lengthen the lock critical section) on a x86-64 system
before and after the patch were:

                 Before Patch    After Patch
   # of Threads     rlock           rlock
   ------------     -----           -----
        1           14,496          14,716
        2            8,644           8,453
	4            6,799           6,983
	8            5,664           7,190

On a ARM64 system, the performance results were:

                 Before Patch    After Patch
   # of Threads     rlock           rlock
   ------------     -----           -----
        1           23,676          24,488
        2            7,697           9,502
        4            4,945           3,440
        8            2,641           1,603

For the uncontended case (1 thread), the new down_read_trylock() is a
little bit faster. For the contended cases, the new down_read_trylock()
perform pretty well in x86-64, but performance degrades at high
contention level on ARM64.

Nit: but I guess that should be RWSEM_UNLOCKED_VALUE instead of 0.

Using RWSEM_UNLOCKED_VALUE may be better. Anyway, it is not a big deal
as I am going to change this again in a later patch.

with the caveat that I'm happy to exchange patch 3 back to my earlier
suggestion in case Will expesses concerns wrt the ARM64 performance of
Linus' suggestion.

I inserted a few lock event counters into the rwsem trylock code:

static inline int __down_read_trylock(struct rw_semaphore *sem)
{
        /*
         * Optimize for the case when the rwsem is not locked at all.
         */
        long tmp = RWSEM_UNLOCKED_VALUE;

        lockevent_inc(rwsem_rtrylock);
        do {
                if (atomic_long_try_cmpxchg_acquire(&sem->count, &tmp,
                                        tmp + RWSEM_ACTIVE_READ_BIAS)) {
                        rwsem_set_reader_owned(sem);
                        return 1;
                }
                lockevent_inc(rwsem_rtrylock_retry);
        } while (tmp >= 0);
        lockevent_inc(rwsem_rtrylock_fail);
        return 0;
}

static inline int __down_write_trylock(struct rw_semaphore *sem)
{
        long tmp;

        lockevent_inc(rwsem_wtrylock);
        tmp = atomic_long_cmpxchg_acquire(&sem->count, RWSEM_UNLOCKED_VALUE,
                      RWSEM_ACTIVE_WRITE_BIAS);
        if (tmp == RWSEM_UNLOCKED_VALUE) {
                rwsem_set_owner(sem);
                return true;
        }
        lockevent_inc(rwsem_wtrylock_fail);
        return false;
}

I booted the new kernel on a 4-socket 56-core 112-thread Broadwell
system. The counter values

1) After bootup:

rwsem_rtrylock=784029
rwsem_rtrylock_fail=59
rwsem_rtrylock_retry=394
rwsem_wtrylock=18284
rwsem_wtrylock_fail=230

2) After parallel kernel build (-j112):

rwsem_rtrylock=338667559
rwsem_rtrylock_fail=18
rwsem_rtrylock_retry=51
rwsem_wtrylock=17016332
rwsem_wtrylock_fail=98058

At least for these two use cases, try-for-ownership as suggested by
Linus is the right choice.

Cheers,
Longman

Right, the current proposal doesn't work well for us, unfortunately. Which
was your earlier suggestion?

In my posting yesterday, I showed that most of the trylocks done were
actually uncontended. Assuming that pattern hold for the most of the
workloads, it will not that bad after all.

That's fair enough; if you're going to sit in a tight trylock() loop like the
benchmark does, then you're much better off just calling lock() if you care
at all about scalability.
