From 9fe73e0c81d41127fa0c6596a375b890e35c2829 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Tue, 9 Aug 2016 08:44:12 -0700 Subject: RFC: FROMLIST: locking/percpu-rwsem: Optimize readers and reduce global impact Currently the percpu-rwsem switches to (global) atomic ops while a writer is waiting; which could be quite a while and slows down releasing the readers. This patch cures this problem by ordering the reader-state vs reader-count (see the comments in __percpu_down_read() and percpu_down_write()). This changes a global atomic op into a full memory barrier, which doesn't have the global cacheline contention. This also enables using the percpu-rwsem with rcu_sync disabled in order to bias the implementation differently, reducing the writer latency by adding some cost to readers.

The latency of the synchronize_sched() is too high for cgroups. The commit 1ed1328792ff talks about the write path being a fairly cold path but this is not the case for Android which moves task to the foreground cgroup and back around binder IPC calls from foreground processes to background processes, so it is significantly hotter than human initiated operations. Switch cgroup_threadgroup_rwsem into the slow mode for now to avoid the problem, hopefully it should not be that slow after another commit 80127a39681b ("locking/percpu-rwsem: Optimize readers and reduce global impact"). We could just add rcu_sync_enter() into cgroup_init() but we do not want another synchronize_sched() at boot time, so this patch adds the new helper which doesn't block but currently can only be called before the first use.
