[PATCH v2 0/5] MCS spinlocks: Cancellable MCS spinlock rework

[PATCH v2 0/5] MCS spinlocks: Cancellable MCS spinlock rework

[Jason Low]

v1->v2:
- Added a patch which uses function + macro for initializing the osq lock
  as suggested by Steven.
- Improved the way we initialize struct rw_semaphore fields with the
  init macro in patch 5 as suggested by Peter.

The main purpose of this patchset is to reduce the size of the
cancellable MCS spinlock and reduce the overhead of rwsem
(currently the largest lock in the kernel).

The overhead of the cancellable MCS lock is a pointer to a per-cpu  node
structure which requires 64 bits on 64 bit systems. Instead of a pointer
to the per-cpu node, we can instead store the CPU # corresponding to the
node in atomic_t. This reduces the overhead by 32 bits on 64 bit systems.

This then opens the opportunity to reduce the size of the rw_semaphore
structure (one of the current users of this MCS lock) by moving around some
of its fields. Due to padding, we would reduce the size of that structure
by 64 bits (on 64 bit systems). This makes it more in line with the size
of the mutex structure.

Jason Low (5):
  MCS spinlocks: Rename optimistic_spin_queue to optimistic_spin_node
  MCS spinlocks: Convert osq lock to atomic_t to reduce overhead
  MCS spinlocks: Introduce and use init macro and function for osq
    locks
  MCS spinlocks: Micro-optimize osq_unlock()
  rwsem: Reduce the size of struct rw_semaphore

[PATCH v2 1/5] MCS spinlocks: Rename optimistic_spin_queue to optimistic_spin_node

[Jason Low]

Currently, the per-cpu nodes structure for the cancellable MCS spinlock is
named "optimistic_spin_queue". However, in a follow up patch in the series
we will be introducing a new structure that serves as the new "handle" for
the lock. It would make more sense if that structure is named
"optimistic_spin_queue". Additionally, since the current use of the
"optimistic_spin_queue" structure are  "nodes", it might be better if we
rename them to "node" anyway.

This preparatory patch renames all current "optimistic_spin_queue"
to "optimistic_spin_node".

[PATCH v2 2/5] MCS spinlocks: Convert osq lock to atomic_t to reduce overhead

[Jason Low]

The cancellable MCS spinlock is currently used to queue threads that are
doing optimistic spinning. It uses per-cpu nodes, where a thread obtaining
the lock would access and queue the local node corresponding to the CPU that
it's running on. Currently, the cancellable MCS lock is implemented by using
pointers to these nodes. 

In this patch, instead of operating on pointers to the per-cpu nodes, we
store the CPU numbers in which the per-cpu nodes correspond to in atomic_t.
A similar concept is used with the qspinlock.

By operating on the CPU # of the nodes using atomic_t instead of pointers
to those nodes, this can reduce the overhead of the cancellable MCS spinlock
by 32 bits (on 64 bit systems).

[PATCH v2 3/5] MCS spinlocks: Introduce and use init macro and function for osq locks

[Jason Low]

Currently, we initialize the osq lock by directly setting the lock's values. It
would be preferable if we use an init macro to do the initialization like we do
with other locks.

This patch introduces and uses a macro and function for initializing the osq lock.

[PATCH v2 4/5] MCS spinlocks: Micro-optimize osq_unlock()

[Jason Low]

In the unlock function of the cancellable MCS spinlock, the first
thing we do is to retrive the current CPU's osq node. However, due to
the changes made in the previous patch, in the common case where the
lock is not contended, we wouldn't need to access the current CPU's
osq node anymore.

This patch optimizes this by only retriving this CPU's osq node
after we attempt the initial cmpxchg to unlock the osq and found
that its contended.

[PATCH v2 5/5] rwsem: Reduce the size of struct rw_semaphore

[Jason Low]

Recent optimistic spinning additions to rwsem provide significant performance
benefits on many workloads on large machines. The cost of it was increasing
the size of the rwsem structure by up to 128 bits.

However, now that the previous patches in this series bring the overhead of
struct optimistic_spin_queue to 32 bits, this patch reorders some fields in
struct rw_semaphore such that we can reduce the overhead of the rwsem structure
by 64 bits (on 64 bit systems).

The extra overhead required for rwsem optimistic spinning would now be up
to 8 additional bytes instead of up to 16 bytes. Additionally, the size of
rwsem would now be more in line with mutexes.

locking/spinlocks/mcs: Rename optimistic_spin_queue() to optimistic_spin_node()

Currently, the per-cpu nodes structure for the cancellable MCS spinlock is
named "optimistic_spin_queue". However, in a follow up patch in the series
we will be introducing a new structure that serves as the new "handle" for
the lock. It would make more sense if that structure is named
"optimistic_spin_queue". Additionally, since the current use of the
"optimistic_spin_queue" structure are  "nodes", it might be better if we
rename them to "node" anyway.

This preparatory patch renames all current "optimistic_spin_queue"
to "optimistic_spin_node".

locking/spinlocks/mcs: Convert osq lock to atomic_t to reduce overhead

The cancellable MCS spinlock is currently used to queue threads that are
doing optimistic spinning. It uses per-cpu nodes, where a thread obtaining
the lock would access and queue the local node corresponding to the CPU that
it's running on. Currently, the cancellable MCS lock is implemented by using
pointers to these nodes.

In this patch, instead of operating on pointers to the per-cpu nodes, we
store the CPU numbers in which the per-cpu nodes correspond to in atomic_t.
A similar concept is used with the qspinlock.

By operating on the CPU # of the nodes using atomic_t instead of pointers
to those nodes, this can reduce the overhead of the cancellable MCS spinlock
by 32 bits (on 64 bit systems).

locking/spinlocks/mcs: Introduce and use init macro and function for osq locks

Currently, we initialize the osq lock by directly setting the lock's values. It
would be preferable if we use an init macro to do the initialization like we do
with other locks.

This patch introduces and uses a macro and function for initializing the osq lock.

locking/spinlocks/mcs: Micro-optimize osq_unlock()

In the unlock function of the cancellable MCS spinlock, the first
thing we do is to retrive the current CPU's osq node. However, due to
the changes made in the previous patch, in the common case where the
lock is not contended, we wouldn't need to access the current CPU's
osq node anymore.

This patch optimizes this by only retriving this CPU's osq node
after we attempt the initial cmpxchg to unlock the osq and found
that its contended.

locking/rwsem: Reduce the size of struct rw_semaphore

Recent optimistic spinning additions to rwsem provide significant performance
benefits on many workloads on large machines. The cost of it was increasing
the size of the rwsem structure by up to 128 bits.

However, now that the previous patches in this series bring the overhead of
struct optimistic_spin_queue to 32 bits, this patch reorders some fields in
struct rw_semaphore such that we can reduce the overhead of the rwsem structure
by 64 bits (on 64 bit systems).

The extra overhead required for rwsem optimistic spinning would now be up
to 8 additional bytes instead of up to 16 bytes. Additionally, the size of
rwsem would now be more in line with mutexes.
