locking/rwsem: Enable lock event counting Add lock event counting calls so that we can track the number of lock events happening in the rwsem code. With CONFIG_LOCK_EVENT_COUNTS on and booting a 4-socket 112-thread x86-64 system, the rwsem counts after system bootup were as follows: rwsem_opt_fail=261 rwsem_opt_wlock=50636 rwsem_rlock=445 rwsem_rlock_fail=0 rwsem_rlock_fast=22 rwsem_rtrylock=810144 rwsem_sleep_reader=441 rwsem_sleep_writer=310 rwsem_wake_reader=355 rwsem_wake_writer=2335 rwsem_wlock=261 rwsem_wlock_fail=0 rwsem_wtrylock=20583 It can be seen that most of the lock acquisitions in the slowpath were write-locks in the optimistic spinning code path with no sleeping at all. For this system, over 97% of the locks are acquired via optimistic spinning. It illustrates the importance of optimistic spinning in improving the performance of rwsem.

locking/rwsem: Implement lock handoff to prevent lock starvation Because of writer lock stealing, it is possible that a constant stream of incoming writers will cause a waiting writer or reader to wait indefinitely leading to lock starvation. This patch implements a lock handoff mechanism to disable lock stealing and force lock handoff to the first waiter or waiters (for readers) in the queue after at least a 4ms waiting period unless it is a RT writer task which doesn't need to wait. The waiting period is used to avoid discouraging lock stealing too much to affect performance. The setting and clearing of the handoff bit is serialized by the wait_lock. So racing is not possible. A rwsem microbenchmark was run for 5 seconds on a 2-socket 40-core 80-thread Skylake system with a v5.1 based kernel and 240 write_lock threads with 5us sleep critical section. Before the patch, the min/mean/max numbers of locking operations for the locking threads were 1/7,792/173,696. After the patch, the figures became 5,842/6,542/7,458. It can be seen that the rwsem became much more fair, though there was a drop of about 16% in the mean locking operations done which was a tradeoff of having better fairness. Making the waiter set the handoff bit right after the first wakeup can impact performance especially with a mixed reader/writer workload. With the same microbenchmark with short critical section and equal number of reader and writer threads (40/40), the reader/writer locking operation counts with the current patch were: 40 readers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 1,793/1,794/1,796 40 writers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 1,793/34,956/86,081 By making waiter set handoff bit immediately after wakeup: 40 readers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 43/44/46 40 writers, Iterations Min/Mean/Max = 43/1,263/3,191 Signed-off-by: Waiman Long <longman@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Borislav Petkov <bp@alien8.de> Cc: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@stgolabs.net> Cc: H.
