Subject: [PATCH 4.9 04/41] futex: Futex_unlock_pi() determinism
Date: Fri, 5 Mar 2021 13:22:11 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210305120851.486188046@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210305120851.255002428@linuxfoundation.org>
From: Ben Hutchings <ben@decadent.org.uk>
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>
commit bebe5b514345f09be2c15e414d076b02ecb9cce8 upstream.
The problem with returning -EAGAIN when the waiter state mismatches is that
it becomes very hard to proof a bounded execution time on the
operation. And seeing that this is a RT operation, this is somewhat
important.
While in practise; given the previous patch; it will be very unlikely to
ever really take more than one or two rounds, proving so becomes rather
hard.
However, now that modifying wait_list is done while holding both hb->lock
and wait_lock, the scenario can be avoided entirely by acquiring wait_lock
while still holding hb-lock. Doing a hand-over, without leaving a hole.
