This is a nasty interface and setting the state of a foreign task must
not be done. As of the following commit:
be628be095
("bcache: Make gc wakeup sane, remove set_task_state()")
... everyone in the kernel calls set_task_state() with current, allowing
the helper to be removed.
However, as the comment indicates, it is still around for those archs
where computing current is more expensive than using a pointer, at least
in theory. An important arch that is affected is arm64, however this has
been addressed now [1] and performance is up to par making no difference
with either calls.
Of all the callers, if any, it's the locking bits that would care most
about this -- ie: we end up passing a tsk pointer to a lot of the lock
slowpath, and setting ->state on that. The following numbers are based
on two tests: a custom ad-hoc microbenchmark that just measures
latencies (for ~65 million calls) between get_task_state() vs
get_current_state().
Secondly for a higher overview, an unlink microbenchmark was used,
which pounds on a single file with open, close,unlink combos with
increasing thread counts (up to 4x ncpus). While the workload is quite
unrealistic, it does contend a lot on the inode mutex or now rwsem.

x86-64 (known to be fast for get_current()/this_cpu_read_stable() caching)
and ppc64 (with paca) show similar improvements in the unlink microbenches.
The small delta for ppc64 (2ms), does not represent the gains on the unlink
runs. In the case of x86, there was a decent amount of variation in the
latency runs, but always within a 20 to 50ms increase), ppc was more constant.

|
|
* The spinlock controls access to the other members of the semaphore.
|
|
* down_trylock() and up() can be called from interrupt context, so we
|
|
* have to disable interrupts when taking the lock. It turns out various
|
|
* parts of the kernel expect to be able to use down() on a semaphore in
|
|
* interrupt context when they know it will succeed, so we have to use
|
|
* irqsave variants for down(), down_interruptible() and down_killable()
|
|
* too.
|
|
*
|
|
* The ->count variable represents how many more tasks can acquire this
|
|
* semaphore. If it's zero, there may be tasks waiting on the wait_list.
