PREEMPT/PREEMPT_RT question

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello!

OK, counter-flip RCU actually survives a pair of overnight runs on
CONFIG_PREEMPT running on 4-CPU machines, and also survives five
kernbenches and an LTP on another 4-CPU machine.  (Overnight-run script
later in this message, FWIW.)

So, time to get serious about a bit of code cleanup:

o	The heavyweight atomic operations in rcu_read_lock() and
	rcu_read_unlock() are not needed in UP kernels, since
	interrupts are disabled.

	Is there already something like smp_atomic_inc() and
	smp_atomic_dec() that generate atomic_inc()/atomic_dec() in
	SMP kernels, but ++/-- in UP kernels?  If not, any reasons
	not to add them, for example, as follows?

		#ifdef CONFIG_SMP
		#define smp_atomic_inc(v) atomic_inc(v)
		#define smp_atomic_dec(v) atomic_dec(v)
		#else /* #ifdef CONFIG_SMP */
		#define smp_atomic_inc(v) ((v)++)
		#define smp_atomic_dec(v) ((v)++)
		#endif /* #else #ifdef CONFIG_SMP */

	Since interrupts must be disabled for these to be safe,
	my guess is that I should define them locally in rcupdate.c.
	If there turns out to be a general need for them, they can
	be moved somewhere more public.

	Objections?

o	In order to get things to work in both CONFIG_PREEMPT and
	CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT, I ended up using the following:

		#ifdef CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT

		#define rcu_spinlock_t _raw_spinlock_t
		#define rcu_spin_lock(l, f) _raw_spin_lock(l)
		#define rcu_spin_trylock(l, f) _raw_spin_trylock(l)
		#define rcu_spin_unlock(l, f) _raw_spin_unlock(l)
		#define RCU_SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED RAW_SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED

		#else /* #ifdef CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT */

		#define rcu_spinlock_t spinlock_t
		#define rcu_spin_lock(l, f) spin_lock_irqsave(l, f)
		#define rcu_spin_trylock(l, f) spin_trylock_irqsave(l, f)
		#define rcu_spin_unlock(l, f) spin_unlock_irqrestore(l, f)
		#define RCU_SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED SPIN_LOCK_UNLOCKED

		#endif /* #else #ifdef CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT */

	Then using rcu_spin_lock() &c everywhere.  The problem is
	that (as near as I can tell) the only way to prevent interrupts 
	from running on the current CPU in CONFIG_PREEMPT kernels is
	to use the _irq spinlock primitives, but _raw_spin_lock() does
	the job in CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT (since interrupts are run in process
	context, right).  I could use _irq in both, but that would
	unnecessarily degrade interrupt latency in CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT.

	Suggestions???

Some remaining shortcomings of the current code:

o	Untested on CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT (working on this, suggestions
	for 4-CPU-stable CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT versions most welcome).

o	Uses atomic operations and memory barriers in the
	rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock() fastpaths.
	Getting rid of the atomic operations in UP is easy,
	in SMP in the common case is reasonably straightforward,
	getting rid of memory barriers is harder, but is likely
	doable.

o	Global callback management slows things down on SMP
	(need to move to per-CPU callback management).

o	Gross debug code needs pruning (working on this).

o	Current implementation is probably too aggressive about
	finishing out grace periods -- one of the machines
	averaged one grace period every 29 milliseconds over a
	15-hour time period.  This likely understates the
	aggressiveness, since the test is quite bursty.

o	Given the small amount testing, there are undoubtably
	more bugs.

All that aside, only a moderately severe degree of insanity is
required to run this code.

Improvements since last time:

o	Boots and runs reasonably reliably.

o	Got rid of the workqueue stuff, simplifying grace-period
	detection code.  Also allows synchronize_sched() to be
	common code between "classic" and realtime RCU
	implementations.

o	Enabled preemption in RCU read-side critical sections
	(even in CONFIG_PREEMPT kernels).

Test script (assumes that you have a linux-2.6.11.tar.bz2 file in
the current directory), relies on the fact that dcache's heavy use
of RCU:

	#!/bin/sh

	while :
	do
		i=0
		while expr $i '<' 10
		do
			tar -xjf linux-2.6.11.tar.bz2
			echo tar status $?
			mv linux-2.6.11 argh$i
			echo $i : `grep dentry_cache /proc/slabinfo`
			i=`expr $i + 1`
		done
		for i in argh[0-9]
		do
			rm -rf $i &
		done
		wait
		echo rm : `grep dentry_cache /proc/slabinfo`
	done

Current (ugly) patch:
