[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 00/11] Reduce lock contention on TCG hot-path

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 00/11] Reduce lock contention on TCG hot-path

[Sergey Fedorov]

From: Sergey Fedorov <serge.fdrv@gmail.com>

Hi,

This is my respin of Alex's v2 series [1].

The first 8 patches are preparation for the patch 9, the subject matter
of this series, which enables lockless translation block lookup. The
main change here is that Paolo's suggestion is implemented: TBs are
marked with invalid CPU state early during invalidation. This allows to
make lockless lookup safe from races on 'tb_jmp_cache' and direct block
chaining.

The patch 10 is a simple solution to avoid unnecessary bouncing on
'tb_lock' between tb_gen_code() and tb_add_jump(). A local variable is
used to keep track of whether 'tb_lock' has already been taken.

The last patch is my attempt to restructure tb_find_{fast,slow}() into a
single function tb_find(). I think it will be easier to follow the
locking scheme this way. However, I am afraid this last patch can be
controversial, so it can be simply dropped.

This series can be fetch from the public git repository:

    https://github.com/sergefdrv/qemu.git lockless-tb-lookup-v3

[1] http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.qemu/424856

Kind regards,
Sergey

Summary of changes in v3:
 - QHT memory ordering assumptions documented
 - 'tb_jmp_cache' reset in tb_flush() made atomic
 - explicit memory barriers removed around 'tb_jmp_cache' access
 - safe access to 'tb_flushed' out of 'tb_lock' prepared
 - TBs marked with invalid CPU state early on invalidation
 - Alex's tb_find_{fast,slow}() roll-up related patches dropped
 - bouncing of tb_lock between tb_gen_code() and tb_add_jump() avoided
   with local variable 'have_tb_lock'
 - tb_find_{fast,slow}() merged

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 01/11] util/qht: Document memory ordering assumptions

[Sergey Fedorov]

From: Sergey Fedorov <serge.fdrv@gmail.com>

It is naturally expected that some memory ordering should be provided
around qht_insert(), qht_remove(), and qht_lookup(). Document these
assumptions in the header file and put some comments in the source to
denote how that memory ordering requirements are fulfilled.

I wouldn't put those comments in the source--seqlock callers should
know what they're doing, and what barriers seqlocks imply.

I'm OK with stating what the implied ordering is in the header
file, though.

In general I'd agree with you, however in this case the "begin" calls
are what implements QHT's guarantee *for the caller*, so I think it's
worth having the comments.  In other words, if for any reason you do
anything before the read_begin and write_begin you still have to provide
barrier semantics.  It's not an explanation, it's a protection against
future mistakes.

There's no need for such comment at read_retry and write_end callsites,
though.

Also, it's spelled "guarantee". :)

Exactly :)

Why?

Hmm, I can't see where the spelling isn't correct.

There are a few "gaurantee"s in the patch.

Do we really need to guarantee smp_rmb(), or is smp_read_barrier_depends()
aka atomic_rcu_read() enough?

Likewise, perhaps only an implicit smp_wmb() before the insert is
"interesting" to qht_insert__locked callers .

Something like:

The idea was something like: qht_lookup() can be "paired" with either
qht_insert() or qht_remove(). The intention was to guarantee independent
tb_jmp_cache lookup performed before qht_lookup() in tb_find_physical().

I see the idea behind this patch is worthwhile so I spend more time on
refining it and I must look at your patch carefully ;)

Of course; that would not be impacted if qht_lookup() only made a weaker
promise.

Anyway, this patch (or mine or a mix of them) can go in after hard freeze.

I understand why an implied wmb can be expected after the entry is
removed: so that the caller can trash the contents of the object
removed. However that would require double-check on lookup side to make
sure the entry hadn't been removed after the first lookup (something
like seqlock read side). But I have no idea why we might like to promise
wmb before the removal. Could you please share your point regarding this?

I tempt to remove any promises on qht_remove() because it is not clear
for me what would be the natural expectations on memory ordering.

As of qht_insert() and qht_lookup(), I agree and this is enough
guarantees for the series.

The reasoning was to make qht_remove() "look to be ordered" with respect
to writes.  So anything after remove wouldn't bleed into it, nor would
anything before.

In the case of this series, it would let you remove the smp_wmb() after
tb_mark_invalid().  However, it's also okay to only handle qht_insert()
and qht_lookup(), and keep the memory barrier after the TB is marked
invalid (though it is unnecessary).

I'm pretty sure the smp_wmb() after tb_mark_invalid() is unnecessary
anyway. We don't rely on it at all because we're to recheck for
tb_is_invalid() under tb_lock before tb_add_jump(). However we have to
invalidate the CPU state atomically since we're going to check for it
out of tb_lock.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 02/11] cpu-exec: Pass last_tb by value to tb_find_fast()

[Sergey Fedorov]

From: Sergey Fedorov <serge.fdrv@gmail.com>

This is a small clean up. tb_find_fast() is a final consumer of this
variable so no need to pass it by reference. 'last_tb' is always updated
by subsequent cpu_loop_exec_tb() in cpu_exec().

This change also simplifies calling cpu_exec_nocache() in
cpu_handle_exception().

Note that this patch does *not* make CPU's TLB invalidation safe if it
is done from some other thread while the CPU is in its execution loop.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 04/11] tcg: Prepare safe access to tb_flushed out of tb_lock

[Sergey Fedorov]

From: Sergey Fedorov <serge.fdrv@gmail.com>

Ensure atomicity of CPU's 'tb_flushed' access for future translation
block lookup out of 'tb_lock'.

This field can only be touched from another thread by tb_flush() in user
mode emulation. So the only access to be atomic is:
 * a single write in tb_flush();
 * reads/writes out of 'tb_lock'.

In future, before enabling MTTCG in system mode, tb_flush() must be safe
and this field becomes unnecessary.

I can see the sense of moving the setting of nb_tbs but is it strictly
required as part of this patch?

Do you mean atomic_set() vs. atomic_mb_set()?

Yes, otherwise tb_alloc() may start allocation TBs from the beginning of
the translation buffer before 'tb_flushed' is updated.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 05/11] target-i386: Remove redundant HF_SOFTMMU_MASK

[Sergey Fedorov]

From: Sergey Fedorov <serge.fdrv@gmail.com>

'HF_SOFTMMU_MASK' is only set when 'CONFIG_SOFTMMU' is defined. So
there's no need in this flag: test 'CONFIG_SOFTMMU' instead.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 06/11] tcg: Introduce tb_mark_invalid() and tb_is_invalid()

[Sergey Fedorov]

From: Sergey Fedorov <serge.fdrv@gmail.com>

These functions will be used to make translation block invalidation safe
with concurrent lockless lookup in the global hash table.

Most targets don't use 'cs_base'; so marking TB as invalid is as simple
as assigning -1 to 'cs_base'. SPARC target stores the next program
counter into 'cs_base', and -1 is a fine invalid value since PC must bet
a multiple of 4 in SPARC. The only odd target is i386, for which a
special flag is introduced in place of removed 'HF_SOFTMMU_MASK'.

The point was to put the assumptions on invalid CPU TB state as close to
cpu_get_tb_cpu_state() definitions as possible. So that if anyone make
changes they can notice those assumptions and correct them if necessary.

It causes some repetition indeed, but I think it's a good idea.

restore_state_to_opc is another case where most implementations have the
same simple "env->pc = data[0]" implementation.

Yeah, now I've seen cpu_get_tb_cpu_state jump up the hot-path I tend to
agree ;-)

Hmmm are we getting something here? Maybe cpu_tb_invalidate_cpu_state?

Also why are we passing three pointers to parts of TranslationBlock? Why
not just pass tb directly and be done with it?

I'm sure the compiler does something sensible but seems overly verbose
to me.

We don't, exec/exec-all.h is TCG-specific while cpu.h isn't.
Implementing tb_mark_invalid/tb_is_invalid in target-* without the
indirection would be possible, but it would require splitting that out
into a new header such as target-*/exec.h.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 07/11] tcg: Prepare TB invalidation for lockless TB lookup

[Sergey Fedorov]

From: Sergey Fedorov <serge.fdrv@gmail.com>

When invalidating a translation block, set an invalid CPU state into the
TranslationBlock structure first. All subsequent changes are ordered
after it with smp_wmb(). This pairs with implied smp_rmb() of
qht_lookup() in tb_find_physical().

As soon as the TB is marked with an invalid CPU state, there is no need
to remove it from CPU's 'tb_jmp_cache'. However it will be necessary to
recheck whether the target TB is still valid after acquiring 'tb_lock'
but before calling tb_add_jump() since TB lookup is to be performed out
of 'tb_lock' in future. Note that we don't have to check 'last_tb' since
it is safe to patch an already invalidated TB since it will not be
executed anyway.

This looks fine. So I guess it's possible for the block to have been
looked up just before it gets invalidated and get one final run but not
get patched?

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 09/11] tcg: cpu-exec: remove tb_lock from the hot-path

[Sergey Fedorov]

From: Alex Bennée <alex.bennee@linaro.org>

Lock contention in the hot path of moving between existing patched
TranslationBlocks is the main drag in multithreaded performance. This
patch pushes the tb_lock() usage down to the two places that really need
it:

  - code generation (tb_gen_code)
  - jump patching (tb_add_jump)

The rest of the code doesn't really need to hold a lock as it is either
using per-CPU structures, atomically updated or designed to be used in
concurrent read situations (qht_lookup).

To keep things simple I removed the #ifdef CONFIG_USER_ONLY stuff as the
locks become NOPs anyway until the MTTCG work is completed.

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 11/11] tcg: Merge tb_find_slow() and tb_find_fast()

[Sergey Fedorov]

From: Sergey Fedorov <serge.fdrv@gmail.com>

These functions are not too big and can be merged together. This makes
locking scheme more clear and easier to follow.

Thanks for looking at the suggestion again and especially for perfecting it!

Actually I agree entirely with it.

If anything, for historical reasons one might rename tb_find_physical to
tb_find_slow and leave the tb_find_fast name, but I think the patch is
good as is.

Have you measured performance with the series?  In any case, it's nice
to see MTTCG finally taking shape!

No, I didn't measured the performance. Maybe Alex can help me with this?

I can run some tests against this series if you want. It's fairly easy
to see an improvement when watching htop though as the system time usage
drops a lot.

You seemed to have some tests ready. If you share them I could run them
as well.

I think tb_find_htable() or tb_find_global_htable() could also be good
options if we're going to rename tb_find_physical().

Kind regards,

Here are some numbers on the multi-threaded pigz test:

Before:

retry.py called with ['./arm-linux-user/qemu-arm', './pigz.armhf', '-c', '-9', 'linux-4.6.3.tar']
Source code is @ pull-tcg-20160708-104-g9ec3025 or heads/review/hot-patch-v3
run 1: ret=0 (PASS), time=32.285497 (1/1)
run 2: ret=0 (PASS), time=32.035293 (2/2)
run 3: ret=0 (PASS), time=31.784781 (3/3)
run 4: ret=0 (PASS), time=32.035136 (4/4)
run 5: ret=0 (PASS), time=32.285612 (5/5)
Results summary:
0: 5 times (100.00%), avg time 32.085 (0.04 varience/0.21 deviation)

After:

Ran command 5 times, 5 passes
retry.py called with ['./arm-linux-user/qemu-arm', './pigz.armhf', '-c', '-9', 'linux-4.6.3.tar']
Source code is @ pull-tcg-20160708-115-gf317fa8 or heads/review/hot-patch-v3
run 1: ret=0 (PASS), time=29.281950 (1/1)
run 2: ret=0 (PASS), time=29.285588 (2/2)
run 3: ret=0 (PASS), time=29.282065 (3/3)
run 4: ret=0 (PASS), time=29.282397 (4/4)
run 5: ret=0 (PASS), time=29.282045 (5/5)
Results summary:
0: 5 times (100.00%), avg time 29.283 (0.00 varience/0.00 deviation)
Ran command 5 times, 5 passes

Which gives a roughly 10% improvement for heavily threaded code.

Looking at the perf data it looks like the hotest part of the code now
is cpu_get_tb_cpu_state which is required to get the initial hash to
search for the next tb.

It should be possible to keep the flags up-to-date in a separate field
of CPUARMState, similar to what x86 does.

Possibly, there is a tension between lazy and always upto date version
of the flags. But this is work for another day I think ;-)
