locking/pvqspinlock: Implement simple paravirt support for the qspinlock Provide a separate (second) version of the spin_lock_slowpath for paravirt along with a special unlock path. The second slowpath is generated by adding a few pv hooks to the normal slowpath, but where those will compile away for the native case, they expand into special wait/wake code for the pv version. The actual MCS queue can use extra storage in the mcs_nodes[] array to keep track of state and therefore uses directed wakeups. The head contender has no such storage directly visible to the unlocker. So the unlocker searches a hash table with open addressing using a simple binary Galois linear feedback shift register.

/*
* Implement paravirt qspinlocks; the general idea is to halt the vcpus instead
* of spinning them.
*
* This relies on the architecture to provide two paravirt hypercalls:
*
* pv_wait(u8 *ptr, u8 val) -- suspends the vcpu if *ptr == val
* pv_kick(cpu) -- wakes a suspended vcpu
*
* Using these we implement __pv_queued_spin_lock_slowpath() and
* __pv_queued_spin_unlock() to replace native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath() and
* native_queued_spin_unlock().

locking/pvqspinlock: Queue node adaptive spinning In an overcommitted guest where some vCPUs have to be halted to make forward progress in other areas, it is highly likely that a vCPU later in the spinlock queue will be spinning while the ones earlier in the queue would have been halted. The spinning in the later vCPUs is then just a waste of precious CPU cycles because they are not going to get the lock soon as the earlier ones have to be woken up and take their turn to get the lock. This patch implements an adaptive spinning mechanism where the vCPU will call pv_wait() if the previous vCPU is not running. Linux kernel builds were run in KVM guest on an 8-socket, 4 cores/socket Westmere-EX system and a 4-socket, 8 cores/socket Haswell-EX system. Both systems are configured to have 32 physical CPUs. The kernel build times before and after the patch were: Westmere Haswell Patch 32 vCPUs 48 vCPUs 32 vCPUs 48 vCPUs ----- -------- -------- -------- -------- Before patch 3m02.3s 5m00.2s 1m43.7s 3m03.5s After patch 3m03.0s 4m37.5s 1m43.0s 2m47.2s For 32 vCPUs, this patch doesn't cause any noticeable change in performance. For 48 vCPUs (over-committed), there is about 8% performance improvement.

locking/pvqspinlock: Allow limited lock stealing This patch allows one attempt for the lock waiter to steal the lock when entering the PV slowpath. To prevent lock starvation, the pending bit will be set by the queue head vCPU when it is in the active lock spinning loop to disable any lock stealing attempt. This helps to reduce the performance penalty caused by lock waiter preemption while not having much of the downsides of a real unfair lock. The pv_wait_head() function was renamed as pv_wait_head_or_lock() as it was modified to acquire the lock before returning. This is necessary because of possible lock stealing attempts from other tasks. Linux kernel builds were run in KVM guest on an 8-socket, 4 cores/socket Westmere-EX system and a 4-socket, 8 cores/socket Haswell-EX system. Both systems are configured to have 32 physical CPUs.

locking/pvqspinlock: Collect slowpath lock statistics This patch enables the accumulation of kicking and waiting related PV qspinlock statistics when the new QUEUED_LOCK_STAT configuration option is selected. It also enables the collection of data which enable us to calculate the kicking and wakeup latencies which have a heavy dependency on the CPUs being used. The statistical counters are per-cpu variables to minimize the performance overhead in their updates. These counters are exported via the debugfs filesystem under the qlockstat directory. When the corresponding debugfs files are read, summation and computing of the required data are then performed. The measured latencies for different CPUs are: CPU Wakeup Kicking --- ------ ------- Haswell-EX 63.6us 7.4us Westmere-EX 67.6us 9.3us The measured latencies varied a bit from run-to-run. The wakeup latency is much higher than the kicking latency. A sample of statistical counters after system bootup (with vCPU overcommit) was: pv_hash_hops=1.00 pv_kick_unlock=1148 pv_kick_wake=1146 pv_latency_kick=11040 pv_latency_wake=194840 pv_spurious_wakeup=7 pv_wait_again=4 pv_wait_head=23 pv_wait_node=1129 Signed-off-by: Waiman Long <Waiman.Long@hpe.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@stgolabs.net> Cc: Douglas Hatch <doug.hatch@hpe.com> Cc: H.

locking/pvqspinlock: Implement simple paravirt support for the qspinlock Provide a separate (second) version of the spin_lock_slowpath for paravirt along with a special unlock path. The second slowpath is generated by adding a few pv hooks to the normal slowpath, but where those will compile away for the native case, they expand into special wait/wake code for the pv version. The actual MCS queue can use extra storage in the mcs_nodes[] array to keep track of state and therefore uses directed wakeups. The head contender has no such storage directly visible to the unlocker. So the unlocker searches a hash table with open addressing using a simple binary Galois linear feedback shift register.

locking/pvqspinlock: Queue node adaptive spinning In an overcommitted guest where some vCPUs have to be halted to make forward progress in other areas, it is highly likely that a vCPU later in the spinlock queue will be spinning while the ones earlier in the queue would have been halted. The spinning in the later vCPUs is then just a waste of precious CPU cycles because they are not going to get the lock soon as the earlier ones have to be woken up and take their turn to get the lock. This patch implements an adaptive spinning mechanism where the vCPU will call pv_wait() if the previous vCPU is not running. Linux kernel builds were run in KVM guest on an 8-socket, 4 cores/socket Westmere-EX system and a 4-socket, 8 cores/socket Haswell-EX system. Both systems are configured to have 32 physical CPUs. The kernel build times before and after the patch were: Westmere Haswell Patch 32 vCPUs 48 vCPUs 32 vCPUs 48 vCPUs ----- -------- -------- -------- -------- Before patch 3m02.3s 5m00.2s 1m43.7s 3m03.5s After patch 3m03.0s 4m37.5s 1m43.0s 2m47.2s For 32 vCPUs, this patch doesn't cause any noticeable change in performance.

locking/pvqspinlock: Queue node adaptive spinning In an overcommitted guest where some vCPUs have to be halted to make forward progress in other areas, it is highly likely that a vCPU later in the spinlock queue will be spinning while the ones earlier in the queue would have been halted. The spinning in the later vCPUs is then just a waste of precious CPU cycles because they are not going to get the lock soon as the earlier ones have to be woken up and take their turn to get the lock. This patch implements an adaptive spinning mechanism where the vCPU will call pv_wait() if the previous vCPU is not running.

locking/pvqspinlock: Collect slowpath lock statistics This patch enables the accumulation of kicking and waiting related PV qspinlock statistics when the new QUEUED_LOCK_STAT configuration option is selected. It also enables the collection of data which enable us to calculate the kicking and wakeup latencies which have a heavy dependency on the CPUs being used. The statistical counters are per-cpu variables to minimize the performance overhead in their updates. These counters are exported via the debugfs filesystem under the qlockstat directory. When the corresponding debugfs files are read, summation and computing of the required data are then performed. The measured latencies for different CPUs are: CPU Wakeup Kicking --- ------ ------- Haswell-EX 63.6us 7.4us Westmere-EX 67.6us 9.3us The measured latencies varied a bit from run-to-run. The wakeup latency is much higher than the kicking latency. A sample of statistical counters after system bootup (with vCPU overcommit) was: pv_hash_hops=1.00 pv_kick_unlock=1148 pv_kick_wake=1146 pv_latency_kick=11040 pv_latency_wake=194840 pv_spurious_wakeup=7 pv_wait_again=4 pv_wait_head=23 pv_wait_node=1129 Signed-off-by: Waiman Long <Waiman.Long@hpe.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@stgolabs.net> Cc: Douglas Hatch <doug.hatch@hpe.com> Cc: H.

locking/pvqspinlock: Allow limited lock stealing This patch allows one attempt for the lock waiter to steal the lock when entering the PV slowpath. To prevent lock starvation, the pending bit will be set by the queue head vCPU when it is in the active lock spinning loop to disable any lock stealing attempt. This helps to reduce the performance penalty caused by lock waiter preemption while not having much of the downsides of a real unfair lock. The pv_wait_head() function was renamed as pv_wait_head_or_lock() as it was modified to acquire the lock before returning. This is necessary because of possible lock stealing attempts from other tasks. Linux kernel builds were run in KVM guest on an 8-socket, 4 cores/socket Westmere-EX system and a 4-socket, 8 cores/socket Haswell-EX system. Both systems are configured to have 32 physical CPUs. The kernel build times before and after the patch were: Westmere Haswell Patch 32 vCPUs 48 vCPUs 32 vCPUs 48 vCPUs ----- -------- -------- -------- -------- Before patch 3m15.6s 10m56.1s 1m44.1s 5m29.1s After patch 3m02.3s 5m00.2s 1m43.7s 3m03.5s For the overcommited case (48 vCPUs), this patch is able to reduce kernel build time by more than 54% for Westmere and 44% for Haswell.

locking/pvqspinlock: Allow limited lock stealing This patch allows one attempt for the lock waiter to steal the lock when entering the PV slowpath. To prevent lock starvation, the pending bit will be set by the queue head vCPU when it is in the active lock spinning loop to disable any lock stealing attempt. This helps to reduce the performance penalty caused by lock waiter preemption while not having much of the downsides of a real unfair lock. The pv_wait_head() function was renamed as pv_wait_head_or_lock() as it was modified to acquire the lock before returning. This is necessary because of possible lock stealing attempts from other tasks. Linux kernel builds were run in KVM guest on an 8-socket, 4 cores/socket Westmere-EX system and a 4-socket, 8 cores/socket Haswell-EX system. Both systems are configured to have 32 physical CPUs.

locking/pvqspinlock: Collect slowpath lock statistics This patch enables the accumulation of kicking and waiting related PV qspinlock statistics when the new QUEUED_LOCK_STAT configuration option is selected. It also enables the collection of data which enable us to calculate the kicking and wakeup latencies which have a heavy dependency on the CPUs being used. The statistical counters are per-cpu variables to minimize the performance overhead in their updates. These counters are exported via the debugfs filesystem under the qlockstat directory. When the corresponding debugfs files are read, summation and computing of the required data are then performed. The measured latencies for different CPUs are: CPU Wakeup Kicking --- ------ ------- Haswell-EX 63.6us 7.4us Westmere-EX 67.6us 9.3us The measured latencies varied a bit from run-to-run. The wakeup latency is much higher than the kicking latency. A sample of statistical counters after system bootup (with vCPU overcommit) was: pv_hash_hops=1.00 pv_kick_unlock=1148 pv_kick_wake=1146 pv_latency_kick=11040 pv_latency_wake=194840 pv_spurious_wakeup=7 pv_wait_again=4 pv_wait_head=23 pv_wait_node=1129 Signed-off-by: Waiman Long <Waiman.Long@hpe.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@stgolabs.net> Cc: Douglas Hatch <doug.hatch@hpe.com> Cc: H.

The second slowpath is generated by adding a few pv hooks to the normal slowpath, but where those will compile away for the native case, they expand into special wait/wake code for the pv version. The actual MCS queue can use extra storage in the mcs_nodes[] array to keep track of state and therefore uses directed wakeups. The head contender has no such storage directly visible to the unlocker. So the unlocker searches a hash table with open addressing using a simple binary Galois linear feedback shift register.

locking/pvqspinlock: Collect slowpath lock statistics This patch enables the accumulation of kicking and waiting related PV qspinlock statistics when the new QUEUED_LOCK_STAT configuration option is selected. It also enables the collection of data which enable us to calculate the kicking and wakeup latencies which have a heavy dependency on the CPUs being used. The statistical counters are per-cpu variables to minimize the performance overhead in their updates. These counters are exported via the debugfs filesystem under the qlockstat directory. When the corresponding debugfs files are read, summation and computing of the required data are then performed. The measured latencies for different CPUs are: CPU Wakeup Kicking --- ------ ------- Haswell-EX 63.6us 7.4us Westmere-EX 67.6us 9.3us The measured latencies varied a bit from run-to-run. The wakeup latency is much higher than the kicking latency. A sample of statistical counters after system bootup (with vCPU overcommit) was: pv_hash_hops=1.00 pv_kick_unlock=1148 pv_kick_wake=1146 pv_latency_kick=11040 pv_latency_wake=194840 pv_spurious_wakeup=7 pv_wait_again=4 pv_wait_head=23 pv_wait_node=1129 Signed-off-by: Waiman Long <Waiman.Long@hpe.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@stgolabs.net> Cc: Douglas Hatch <doug.hatch@hpe.com> Cc: H.

locking/pvqspinlock: Queue node adaptive spinning In an overcommitted guest where some vCPUs have to be halted to make forward progress in other areas, it is highly likely that a vCPU later in the spinlock queue will be spinning while the ones earlier in the queue would have been halted. The spinning in the later vCPUs is then just a waste of precious CPU cycles because they are not going to get the lock soon as the earlier ones have to be woken up and take their turn to get the lock. This patch implements an adaptive spinning mechanism where the vCPU will call pv_wait() if the previous vCPU is not running. Linux kernel builds were run in KVM guest on an 8-socket, 4 cores/socket Westmere-EX system and a 4-socket, 8 cores/socket Haswell-EX system. Both systems are configured to have 32 physical CPUs. The kernel build times before and after the patch were: Westmere Haswell Patch 32 vCPUs 48 vCPUs 32 vCPUs 48 vCPUs ----- -------- -------- -------- -------- Before patch 3m02.3s 5m00.2s 1m43.7s 3m03.5s After patch 3m03.0s 4m37.5s 1m43.0s 2m47.2s For 32 vCPUs, this patch doesn't cause any noticeable change in performance. For 48 vCPUs (over-committed), there is about 8% performance improvement.

locking/pvqspinlock: Allow limited lock stealing This patch allows one attempt for the lock waiter to steal the lock when entering the PV slowpath. To prevent lock starvation, the pending bit will be set by the queue head vCPU when it is in the active lock spinning loop to disable any lock stealing attempt. This helps to reduce the performance penalty caused by lock waiter preemption while not having much of the downsides of a real unfair lock. The pv_wait_head() function was renamed as pv_wait_head_or_lock() as it was modified to acquire the lock before returning. This is necessary because of possible lock stealing attempts from other tasks.

locking/pvqspinlock: Allow limited lock stealing This patch allows one attempt for the lock waiter to steal the lock when entering the PV slowpath. To prevent lock starvation, the pending bit will be set by the queue head vCPU when it is in the active lock spinning loop to disable any lock stealing attempt. This helps to reduce the performance penalty caused by lock waiter preemption while not having much of the downsides of a real unfair lock. The pv_wait_head() function was renamed as pv_wait_head_or_lock() as it was modified to acquire the lock before returning. This is necessary because of possible lock stealing attempts from other tasks. Linux kernel builds were run in KVM guest on an 8-socket, 4 cores/socket Westmere-EX system and a 4-socket, 8 cores/socket Haswell-EX system. Both systems are configured to have 32 physical CPUs. The kernel build times before and after the patch were: Westmere Haswell Patch 32 vCPUs 48 vCPUs 32 vCPUs 48 vCPUs ----- -------- -------- -------- -------- Before patch 3m15.6s 10m56.1s 1m44.1s 5m29.1s After patch 3m02.3s 5m00.2s 1m43.7s 3m03.5s For the overcommited case (48 vCPUs), this patch is able to reduce kernel build time by more than 54% for Westmere and 44% for Haswell.

locking/pvqspinlock: Collect slowpath lock statistics This patch enables the accumulation of kicking and waiting related PV qspinlock statistics when the new QUEUED_LOCK_STAT configuration option is selected. It also enables the collection of data which enable us to calculate the kicking and wakeup latencies which have a heavy dependency on the CPUs being used. The statistical counters are per-cpu variables to minimize the performance overhead in their updates. These counters are exported via the debugfs filesystem under the qlockstat directory. When the corresponding debugfs files are read, summation and computing of the required data are then performed. The measured latencies for different CPUs are: CPU Wakeup Kicking --- ------ ------- Haswell-EX 63.6us 7.4us Westmere-EX 67.6us 9.3us The measured latencies varied a bit from run-to-run. The wakeup latency is much higher than the kicking latency. A sample of statistical counters after system bootup (with vCPU overcommit) was: pv_hash_hops=1.00 pv_kick_unlock=1148 pv_kick_wake=1146 pv_latency_kick=11040 pv_latency_wake=194840 pv_spurious_wakeup=7 pv_wait_again=4 pv_wait_head=23 pv_wait_node=1129 Signed-off-by: Waiman Long <Waiman.Long@hpe.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@stgolabs.net> Cc: Douglas Hatch <doug.hatch@hpe.com> Cc: H.

locking/pvqspinlock: Allow limited lock stealing This patch allows one attempt for the lock waiter to steal the lock when entering the PV slowpath. To prevent lock starvation, the pending bit will be set by the queue head vCPU when it is in the active lock spinning loop to disable any lock stealing attempt. This helps to reduce the performance penalty caused by lock waiter preemption while not having much of the downsides of a real unfair lock. The pv_wait_head() function was renamed as pv_wait_head_or_lock() as it was modified to acquire the lock before returning. This is necessary because of possible lock stealing attempts from other tasks. Linux kernel builds were run in KVM guest on an 8-socket, 4 cores/socket Westmere-EX system and a 4-socket, 8 cores/socket Haswell-EX system. Both systems are configured to have 32 physical CPUs. The kernel build times before and after the patch were: Westmere Haswell Patch 32 vCPUs 48 vCPUs 32 vCPUs 48 vCPUs ----- -------- -------- -------- -------- Before patch 3m15.6s 10m56.1s 1m44.1s 5m29.1s After patch 3m02.3s 5m00.2s 1m43.7s 3m03.5s For the overcommited case (48 vCPUs), this patch is able to reduce kernel build time by more than 54% for Westmere and 44% for Haswell.

locking/pvqspinlock: Collect slowpath lock statistics This patch enables the accumulation of kicking and waiting related PV qspinlock statistics when the new QUEUED_LOCK_STAT configuration option is selected. It also enables the collection of data which enable us to calculate the kicking and wakeup latencies which have a heavy dependency on the CPUs being used. The statistical counters are per-cpu variables to minimize the performance overhead in their updates. These counters are exported via the debugfs filesystem under the qlockstat directory. When the corresponding debugfs files are read, summation and computing of the required data are then performed. The measured latencies for different CPUs are: CPU Wakeup Kicking --- ------ ------- Haswell-EX 63.6us 7.4us Westmere-EX 67.6us 9.3us The measured latencies varied a bit from run-to-run. The wakeup latency is much higher than the kicking latency. A sample of statistical counters after system bootup (with vCPU overcommit) was: pv_hash_hops=1.00 pv_kick_unlock=1148 pv_kick_wake=1146 pv_latency_kick=11040 pv_latency_wake=194840 pv_spurious_wakeup=7 pv_wait_again=4 pv_wait_head=23 pv_wait_node=1129 Signed-off-by: Waiman Long <Waiman.Long@hpe.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@stgolabs.net> Cc: Douglas Hatch <doug.hatch@hpe.com> Cc: H.

This patch optimizes the PV unlock code path by: 1) Moving the unlock slowpath code from the fastpath into a separate __pv_queued_spin_unlock_slowpath() function to make the fastpath as simple as possible.. 2) For x86-64, hand-coded an assembly function to combine the register saving thunk code with the fastpath code. Only registers that are used in the fastpath will be saved and restored. If the fastpath fails, the slowpath function will be called via another PV_CALLEE_SAVE_REGS_THUNK(). For 32-bit, it falls back to the C __pv_queued_spin_unlock() code as the thunk saves and restores only one 32-bit register.

locking/pvqspinlock: Implement simple paravirt support for the qspinlock Provide a separate (second) version of the spin_lock_slowpath for paravirt along with a special unlock path. The second slowpath is generated by adding a few pv hooks to the normal slowpath, but where those will compile away for the native case, they expand into special wait/wake code for the pv version. The actual MCS queue can use extra storage in the mcs_nodes[] array to keep track of state and therefore uses directed wakeups. The head contender has no such storage directly visible to the unlocker. So the unlocker searches a hash table with open addressing using a simple binary Galois linear feedback shift register.
