This is follow-up for Suresh's runqueue align in smp patch at:
http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0704.1/0340.html
The patches place all of smp cacheline aligned percpu data into .data.percpu.cacheline_aligned_in_smp. Other percpu data is still in data.percpu section. The patches can reduce cache line access in SMP and reduce alignment gap waste. The patches also define PERCPU macro for vmlinux.lds.S for code clean up.
PATCH 1/2: Define percpu smp cacheline align interface

Ummm... The per cpu area is for exclusive use of a particular processor.
If there is contention in the per cpu area then a data object needs to be
removed from the per cpu area because the object is *not* accessed only
from a certain cpu.

Christoph, This data(that is being accessed by other cpus) also needs
to be defined for each cpu and as such it is getting appended (and
clearly seperated in a different section) to the data which is accessed
only by the local cpu.
Not sure what your concern is.

Sure. cacheline_algined_in_smp was sort of indicating this. But this
name is short and also will clear the confusion.
But this still need to tap into per cpu infrastructure, so that the
new area can be allocated for each cpu during boot time..

There are some fields in percpu section which are accessed by other
cpu's but not cache line aligned, e.g. cpu_idle_state, flush_state in
x86-64. We don't want to place those fields into same subsection as
cacheline aligned fields.
So perhaps, I can change the section name
.data.percpu.cacheline_aligned_in_smp to
.data.percpu.shared_cacheline_aligned. And change macro
DEFINE_PER_CPU_CACHELINE_ALIGNED_IN_SMP to
DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_CACHELINE_ALIGNED.
.data.percpu.shared_cacheline_aligned contains only cpu shared percpu
fields which are cacheline aligned. In future (or in a separate patch
series), we can define another percpu section .data.percpu.shared and
its macro DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_CACHELINE_ALIGNED which store all of cpu
shared percpu fields. The new .data.percpu.shared and
DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_CACHELINE_ALIGNED are for better coding and
understanding.
Thanks.

This is updated patch. Per cpu cacheline aligned data section name and macro name are changed to have better code understanding.
The patches place all of smp cacheline aligned percpu data into .data.percpu.shared_cacheline_aligned. Other percpu data is still in data.percpu section. The patches can reduce cache line access in SMP and reduce alignment gap waste. The patches also define PERCPU macro for vmlinux.lds.S for concise code.

hm, DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_CACHELINE_ALIGNED is a bit of a mouthful.
I wonder if we can improve things here so that we use the runtime-detected
cacheline size rather than the compile-time size. I guess not, given that
the offsets into the percpu area are calculated at build-time.
Did you work out how much space this change will actually save? It
should be available by suitable crunching on the nm and objdump output.

Depending on how data fields are arranged by linker, the patches could
save or waste per_cpu size. Below is data I got.
Case 1: On linux-2.6.21-rc7-mm2 with defconfig build.
Case 2: On linux-2.6.21-rc7-mm2 plus the patches in this thread with
defconfig build.
Case 3: On linux-2.6.21-rc7-mm2 with defconfig with VSMP=y build.
Case 4: On linux-2.6.21-rc7-mm2 plus the patches in this thread with
defconfig with VSMP=y build.
Please note that on x86/x86-64, per_cpu_init_tss is placed in the first
place in per_cpu section in Case 1 and 3. And thus there is no padding
waste for per_cpu_init_tss in Case 1 and 3.
On X86:
Case 1: Size of per_cpu section is: 0x7768
Case 2: Size of per_cpu section is: 0x790c
The patches waste 0x1a4 bytes.
per_cpu__init_tss, per_cpu__irq_stat, and per_cpu__runqueues are moved
to shared_cacheline_aligned section.
On X86-64:
Case 1: Size of per_cpu section is: 0x72d0
Case 2: Size of per_cpu section is: 0x6540
The patches save 0xd90 bytes.
Case 3: Size of per_cpu section is: 0x72d0
Case 4: Size of per_cpu section is: 0x8340
The patches waste 0x1070 bytes.
Shall we not use shared_cacheline_aligned section for VSMP case? The
waste of cache eventually may offset the potential gain of alignment.
Probably need to set up a cache line size threshold: if L1 cache line
size is bigger than a number CACHELINE_ALIGN_SHRESHOLD, don't do
cacheline alignment.
per_cpu__init_tss and per_cpu__runqueues are moved to
shared_cacheline_aligned section.
On ia64:
Case 1: Size of per_cpu section is: 0x8370
Case 2: Size of per_cpu section is: 0x7fc0
The patches save 0x3b0 bytes.
per_cpu_ipi_operation and per_cpu_runqueues are moved to
shared_cacheline_aligned section

What was it? 0.5% performance improvement on a synthetic benchmark?

Andrew, There are two advantages with this patch.
1. Space savings.. For me, I really don't worry about this. As VSMP only
uses 4K cacheline alignment and the regular kernels don't use VSMP.
2. data accessed by different cpus gets their own cachelines.
Both the beginning and end of these data elements will be cacheline
aligned.
i.e., other data which gets referenced heavily by local cpu will not bring
the remote lines to local cpu(no unnecessary cacheline bouncing). This
is important, going forward.

Christoph, don't get confused. The patch which gives 0.5% is already
in linus git tree. This adds a clean infrastructure, to avoid the two
above mentioned issues.
thanks,
suresh

The initial patch and discussion is from:
http://www.uwsg.iu.edu/hypermail/linux/kernel/0704.1/0340.html
Yes, the runqueue patch has a 0.5% perf improvement on database
workload(which is a good improvement for this workload).
The theory behind the patches is:
1. Minimize number of cache lines that are touched during a remote
access. On Numa system, remote access is more expensive than local.
2. Do not share cache line between remote accessed data and local
accessed data. Local data update may cause remote access cache miss and
wait for longer time.
Although the patches themselves don't save or waste per_cpu size, the
above two reasons are good to have them in.
Thanks.

Guys, this is all a lesson in the value of changelogs, and in how not to
write them.
Can you please prepare a new changelog for these patches? Something which
encapsulates all the above in as brief a form as possible and which
includes some numbers describing the space and/or speed improvements?
Thanks.

Currently most of the per cpu data, which is accessed by different cpus, has a
____cacheline_aligned_in_smp attribute. Move all this data to the new per cpu
shared data section: .data.percpu.shared_aligned.
This will seperate the percpu data which is referenced frequently by other cpus
from the local only percpu data.

* [PATCH 1/2] Define new percpu interface for shared data -- version 2

To: akpm, Siddha, Suresh B, Christoph Lameter, kiran, linux-kernel; +Cc: fenghua.yu
Changes from previous version:
1. Shorter macro and section names.
2. Detailed change log.
per cpu data section contains two types of data. One set which is exclusively
accessed by the local cpu and the other set which is per cpu, but also shared
by remote cpus. In the current kernel, these two sets are not clearely
separated out. This can potentially cause the same data cacheline shared
between the two sets of data, which will result in unnecessary bouncing of the
cacheline between cpus.
One way to fix the problem is to cacheline align the remotely accessed per cpu
data, both at the beginning and at the end. Because of the padding at both ends,
this will likely cause some memory wastage and also the interface to achieve
this is not clean.
This patch:
Moves the remotely accessed per cpu data (which is currently marked
as ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp) into a different section, where all the data
elements are cacheline aligned. And as such, this differentiates the local
only data and remotely accessed data cleanly.

The patches can reduce cache line access in SMP and reduce alignment gap waste. The patches also define PERCPU macro for vmlinux.lds.S for concise code.

Seems I don't have the latest version any more so I'll drop it.
