From 992caf7f17243d736fc996770bac6566103778f6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steven Rostedt Date: Sun, 15 Aug 2021 23:29:25 +0200 Subject: locking/rtmutex: Add adaptive spinwait mechanism Going to sleep when locks are contended can be quite inefficient when the contention time is short and the lock owner is running on a different CPU. The MCS mechanism cannot be used because MCS is strictly FIFO ordered while for rtmutex based locks the waiter ordering is priority based. Provide a simple adaptive spinwait mechanism which currently restricts the spinning to the top priority waiter. [ tglx: Provide a contemporary changelog, extended it to all rtmutex based locks and updated it to match the other spin on owner implementations ] Originally-by: Gregory Haskins Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20210815211305.912050691@linutronix.de --- kernel/locking/rtmutex.c | 67 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 65 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'kernel/locking/rtmutex.c') diff --git a/kernel/locking/rtmutex.c b/kernel/locking/rtmutex.c index 3eaf636606fd..8aaa352d0c17 100644 --- a/kernel/locking/rtmutex.c +++ b/kernel/locking/rtmutex.c @@ -8,6 +8,11 @@ * Copyright (C) 2005-2006 Timesys Corp., Thomas Gleixner * Copyright (C) 2005 Kihon Technologies Inc., Steven Rostedt * Copyright (C) 2006 Esben Nielsen + * Adaptive Spinlocks: + * Copyright (C) 2008 Novell, Inc., Gregory Haskins, Sven Dietrich, + * and Peter Morreale, + * Adaptive Spinlocks simplification: + * Copyright (C) 2008 Red Hat, Inc., Steven Rostedt * * See Documentation/locking/rt-mutex-design.rst for details. */ @@ -1297,6 +1302,52 @@ static __always_inline void __rt_mutex_unlock(struct rt_mutex_base *lock) rt_mutex_slowunlock(lock); } +#ifdef CONFIG_SMP +static bool rtmutex_spin_on_owner(struct rt_mutex_base *lock, + struct rt_mutex_waiter *waiter, + struct task_struct *owner) +{ + bool res = true; + + rcu_read_lock(); + for (;;) { + /* If owner changed, trylock again. */ + if (owner != rt_mutex_owner(lock)) + break; + /* + * Ensure that @owner is dereferenced after checking that + * the lock owner still matches @owner.
