| * | | | | | | | | | | perf: Do not POLLHUP event if it has childrenJiri Olsa2014-09-24

Before returning POLLHUP making sure that: 1) the monitored task has exited and that 2) we don't have any children to monitor Also adding parent wakeup when the child event is gone.

If the condition gets true after mutex_unlock() but before poll_wait() then we lose it and would have wait for another wakeup. This has been like this since v2.6.31-rc1 commit c7138f37f9 ("perf_counter: fix perf_poll()"). Before that it was slightly worse. I guess we get enough wakeups so if we miss here one it doesn't really matter. It is still a bad example.

Thats' because each child event holds parent reference. We want to release all children events once the parent is gone, because at that time there's no process to read them anyway, so they're just eating resources. This removal races with process exit, which removes all events and fork, which clone events. To be clear of those two, adding work queue to remove orphaned child for context in case such event is detected. Using delayed work queue (with delay == 1), because we queue this work under perf scheduler callbacks. Normal work queue tries to wake up the queue process, which deadlocks on rq->lock in this place. Also preventing clones from abandoned parent event.

In particular qrwlock is fair outside of interrupt context, but in interrupt context readers will ignore all fairness. The problem modeling this is that read and write side have different lock state (interrupts) semantics but we only have a single representation of these. Therefore lockdep will get confused, thinking the lock can cause interrupt lock inversions. So revert it for now; the old rwlock semantics were already imperfectly modeled and the qrwlock extra won't fit either. If we want to properly fix this, I think we need to resurrect the work by Gautham did a few years ago that split the read and write state of locks: http://lwn.net/Articles/332801/ FWIW the locking selftest that would've failed (and was reported by Borislav earlier) is something like: RL(X1); /* IRQ-ON */ LOCK(A); UNLOCK(A); RU(X1); IRQ_ENTER(); RL(X1); /* IN-IRQ */ RU(X1); IRQ_EXIT(); At which point it would report that because A is an IRQ-unsafe lock we can suffer the following inversion: CPU0 CPU1 lock(A) lock(X1) lock(A) <IRQ> lock(X1) And this is 'wrong' because X1 can recurse (assuming the above lock are in fact read-lock) but lockdep doesn't know about this.

However, a subsequent patch was added such that we directly check for sem->count == RWSEM_WAITING_BIAS right before trying that cmpxchg(). Thus, commit 9b0fc9c09f1b now just adds overhead. This patch modifies it so that we only do a check for if count == RWSEM_WAITING_BIAS. Also, add a comment on why we do an "extra check" of count before the cmpxchg().

Consequently, recursive read_lock calls will now hang the process if there is a write_lock call somewhere in between the read_lock calls. This patch updates the lockdep implementation to look for recursive read_lock calls. A new read state (3) is used to mark those read_lock call that cannot be recursively called except in the interrupt context. The new read state does exhaust the 2 bits available in held_lock:read bit field. The addition of any new read state in the future may require a redesign of how all those bits are squeezed together in the held_lock structure.

This greatly simplifies their implementation, but means that calls to them holding locks that are acquired by CPU-hotplug notifiers (to say nothing of calls to these primitives from CPU-hotplug notifiers) can deadlock. But this is starting to become inconvenient, as can be seen here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/8/5/754. The problem in this case is that some developers need to acquire a mutex from a CPU-hotplug notifier, but also need to hold it across a synchronize_rcu_expedited(). As noted above, this currently results in deadlock. This commit avoids the deadlock and retains the simplicity by creating a try_get_online_cpus(), which returns false if the get_online_cpus() reference count could not immediately be incremented. If a call to try_get_online_cpus() returns true, the expedited primitives operate as before. If a call returns false, the expedited primitives fall back to normal grace-period operations. This falling back of course results in increased grace-period latency, but only during times when CPU hotplug operations are actually in flight. The effect should therefore be negligible during normal operation. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: Josh Triplett <josh@joshtriplett.org> Cc: "Rafael J.

This allows readers to be very independent (and thus configurable), enabling future module parameters to control things such as rw distribution. Furthermore, readers have their own delaying function, allowing us to test different rw critical region latencies, and stress locking internals. Similarly, statistics, for now will only serve for the number of lock acquisitions -- as opposed to writers, readers have no failure detection. In addition, introduce a new nreaders_stress module parameter. The default number of readers will be the same number of writers threads. Writer threads are interleaved with readers.

The reason that irqs are disabled is to synchronize process-level and irq-handler access to the task_struct ->rcu_read_unlock_special bitmask. This commit therefore makes ->rcu_read_unlock_special instead be a union of bools with a short allowing single-access checks in RCU's __rcu_read_unlock(). This results in the process-level and irq-handler accesses being simple loads and stores, so that irqs need no longer be disabled.

The grace period would therefore extend indefinitely. This commit therefore makes RCU's dyntick-idle subsystem record the task_struct structure of the task that is running in dyntick-idle mode on each CPU.

For such sites, creating rcu_tasks_kthread() at boot is wasteful. This commit therefore defers creation of this kthread until the time of the first call_rcu_tasks(). This of course means that the first call_rcu_tasks() must be invoked from process context after the scheduler is fully operational. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
