2017-06-06Optimize generic spinlock code and use C11 like atomic macros.Stefan Liebler
This patch optimizes the generic spinlock code. The type pthread_spinlock_t is a typedef to volatile int on all archs. Passing a volatile pointer to the atomic macros which are not mapped to the C11 atomic builtins can lead to extra stores and loads to stack if such a macro creates a temporary variable by using "__typeof (*(mem)) tmp;". Thus, those macros which are used by spinlock code - atomic_exchange_acquire, atomic_load_relaxed, atomic_compare_exchange_weak - have to be adjusted. According to the comment from Szabolcs Nagy, the type of a cast expression is unqualified (see http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg14/www/docs/dr_423.htm): __typeof ((__typeof (*(mem)) *(mem)) tmp; Thus from spinlock perspective the variable tmp is of type int instead of type volatile int. This patch adjusts those macros in include/atomic.h. With this construct GCC >= 5 omits the extra stores and loads. The atomic macros are replaced by the C11 like atomic macros and thus the code is aligned to it. The pthread_spin_unlock implementation is now using release memory order instead of sequentially consistent memory order. The issue with passed volatile int pointers applies to the C11 like atomic macros as well as the ones used before. I've added a glibc_likely hint to the first atomic exchange in pthread_spin_lock in order to return immediately to the caller if the lock is free. Without the hint, there is an additional jump if the lock is free. I've added the atomic_spin_nop macro within the loop of plain reads. The plain reads are also realized by C11 like atomic_load_relaxed macro. The new define ATOMIC_EXCHANGE_USES_CAS determines if the first try to acquire the spinlock in pthread_spin_lock or pthread_spin_trylock is an exchange or a CAS. This is defined in atomic-machine.h for all architectures. The define SPIN_LOCK_READS_BETWEEN_CMPXCHG is now removed. There is no technical reason for throwing in a CAS every now and then, and so far we have no evidence that it can improve performance. If that would be the case, we have to adjust other spin-waiting loops elsewhere, too! Using a CAS loop without plain reads is not a good idea on many targets and wasn't used by one. Thus there is now no option to do so. Architectures are now using the generic spinlock automatically if they do not provide an own implementation. Thus the pthread_spin_lock.c files in sysdeps folder are deleted.

2017-05-11Remove wrong definitions from pthread header refactorAdhemerval Zanella
This patch removes wrong struct definition from eab380d (Move shared pthread definitions to common headers) on ARM and hppa. Checked on arm-linux-gnueabihf. * sysdeps/arm/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h (__pthread_rwlock_arch_t): Remove __data definition. * sysdeps/hppa/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h (__pthread_rwlock_arch_t): Likewise.
2017-05-09Move shared pthread definitions to common headersAdhemerval Zanella
This patch removes all the replicated pthread definition accross the architectures and consolidates it on shared headers. The new organization is as follow: * Architecture specific definition (such as pthread types sizes) are place in the new pthreadtypes-arch.h header in arch specific path. * All shared structure definition are moved to a common NPTL header at sysdeps/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes.h (with now includes the arch specific one for internal definitions). * Also, for C11 future thread support, both mutex and condition definition are placed in a common header at sysdeps/nptl/bits/thread-shared-types.h. It is also a refactor patch without expected functional changes. Checked with a build for all major ABI (aarch64-linux-gnu, alpha-linux-gnu, arm-linux-gnueabi, i386-linux-gnu, ia64-linux-gnu, m68k-linux-gnu, microblaze-linux-gnu, mips{64}-linux-gnu, nios2-linux-gnu, powerpc{64le}-linux-gnu, s390{x}-linux-gnu, sparc{64}-linux-gnu, tile{pro,gx}-linux-gnu, and x86_64-linux-gnu). * posix/Makefile (headers): Add pthreadtypes-arch.h and thread-shared-types.h. * sysdeps/aarch64/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h: New file: arch specific thread definition. * sysdeps/alpha/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/arm/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/hppa/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/ia64/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/m68k/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/microblaze/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/mips/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/nios2/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/powerpc/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/s390/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/sh/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/sparc/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/tile/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/x86/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes-arch.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/nptl/bits/thread-shared-types.h: New file: shared thread definition between POSIX and C11. * sysdeps/aarch64/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes.h.: Remove file. * sysdeps/alpha/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/arm/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/hppa/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/m68k/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/microblaze/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/mips/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/nios2/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/ia64/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/powerpc/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/s390/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/sh/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/sparc/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/tile/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/x86/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes.h: Likewise. * sysdeps/nptl/bits/pthreadtypes.h: New file: common thread definitions shared across all architectures.

2016-12-31New condvar implementation that provides stronger ordering guarantees.Torvald Riegel
This is a new implementation for condition variables, required after http://austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=609 to fix bug 13165. In essence, we need to be stricter in which waiters a signal or broadcast is required to wake up; this couldn't be solved using the old algorithm. ISO C++ made a similar clarification, so this also fixes a bug in current libstdc++, for example. We can't use the old algorithm anymore because futexes do not guarantee to wake in FIFO order. Thus, when we wake, we can't simply let any waiter grab a signal, but we need to ensure that one of the waiters happening before the signal is woken up. This is something the previous algorithm violated (see bug 13165). There's another issue specific to condvars: ABA issues on the underlying futexes. Unlike mutexes that have just three states, or semaphores that have no tokens or a limited number of them, the state of a condvar is the *order* of the waiters. A waiter on a semaphore can grab a token whenever one is available; a condvar waiter must only consume a signal if it is eligible to do so as determined by the relative order of the waiter and the signal. Therefore, this new algorithm maintains two groups of waiters: Those eligible to consume signals (G1), and those that have to wait until previous waiters have consumed signals (G2). Once G1 is empty, G2 becomes the new G1. 64b counters are used to avoid ABA issues. This condvar doesn't yet use a requeue optimization (ie, on a broadcast, waking just one thread and requeueing all others on the futex of the mutex supplied by the program). I don't think doing the requeue is necessarily the right approach (but I haven't done real measurements yet): * If a program expects to wake many threads at the same time and make that scalable, a condvar isn't great anyway because of how it requires waiters to operate mutually exclusive (due to the mutex usage). Thus, a thundering herd problem is a scalability problem with or without the optimization. Using something like a semaphore might be more appropriate in such a case. * The scalability problem is actually at the mutex side; the condvar could help (and it tries to with the requeue optimization), but it should be the mutex who decides how that is done, and whether it is done at all. * Forcing all but one waiter into the kernel-side wait queue of the mutex prevents/avoids the use of lock elision on the mutex. Thus, it prevents the only cure against the underlying scalability problem inherent to condvars. * If condvars use short critical sections (ie, hold the mutex just to check a binary flag or such), which they should do ideally, then forcing all those waiter to proceed serially with kernel-based hand-off (ie, futex ops in the mutex' contended state, via the futex wait queues) will be less efficient than just letting a scalable mutex implementation take care of it. Our current mutex impl doesn't employ spinning at all, but if critical sections are short, spinning can be much better. * Doing the requeue stuff requires all waiters to always drive the mutex into the contended state. This leads to each waiter having to call futex_wake after lock release, even if this wouldn't be necessary.

2016-11-24Remove cached PID/TID in cloneAdhemerval Zanella
This patch remove the PID cache and usage in current GLIBC code. Current usage is mainly used a performance optimization to avoid the syscall, however it adds some issues: - The exposed clone syscall will try to set pid/tid to make the new thread somewhat compatible with current GLIBC assumptions. This cause a set of issue with new workloads and usecases (such as BZ#17214 and [1]) as well for new internal usage of clone to optimize other algorithms (such as clone plus CLONE_VM for posix_spawn, BZ#19957). - The caching complexity also added some bugs in the past [2] [3] and requires more effort of each port to handle such requirements (for both clone and vfork implementation). - Caching performance gain in mainly on getpid and some specific code paths. The getpid performance leverage is questionable [4], either by the idea of getpid being a hotspot as for the getpid implementation itself (if it is indeed a justifiable hotspot a vDSO symbol could let to a much more simpler solution). Other usage is mainly for non usual code paths, such as pthread cancellation signal and handling. For thread creation (on stack allocation) the code simplification in fact adds some performance gain due the no need of transverse the stack cache and invalidate each element pid. Other thread usages will require a direct getpid syscall, such as cancellation/setxid signal, thread cancellation, thread fail path (at create_thread), and thread signal (pthread_kill and pthread_sigqueue). However these are hardly usual hotspots and I think adding a syscall is justifiable. It also simplifies both the clone and vfork arch-specific implementation. And by review each fork implementation there are some discrepancies that this patch also solves: - microblaze clone/vfork does not set/reset the pid/tid field - hppa uses the default vfork implementation that fallback to fork. Since vfork is deprecated I do not think we should bother with it. The patch also removes the TID caching in clone. My understanding for such semantic is try provide some pthread usage after a user program issue clone directly (as done by thread creation with CLONE_PARENT_SETTID and pthread tid member). However, as stated before in multiple discussions threads, GLIBC provides clone syscalls without further supporting all this semantics. I ran a full make check on x86_64, x32, i686, armhf, aarch64, and powerpc64le. For sparc32, sparc64, and mips I ran the basic fork and vfork tests from posix/ folder (on a qemu system). So it would require further testing on alpha, hppa, ia64, m68k, nios2, s390, sh, and tile (I excluded microblaze because it is already implementing the patch semantic regarding clone/vfork).

2014-06-13Add adaptive elision to rwlocksAndi Kleen
This patch relies on the C version of the rwlocks posted earlier. With C rwlocks it is very straight forward to do adaptive elision using TSX. It is based on the infrastructure added earlier for mutexes, but uses its own elision macros. The macros are fairly general purpose and could be used for other elision purposes too. This version is much cleaner than the earlier assembler based version, and in particular implements adaptation which makes it safer. I changed the behavior slightly to not require any changes in the test suite and fully conform to all expected behaviors (generally at the cost of not eliding in various situations). In particular this means the timedlock variants are not elided. Nested trylock aborts.

2014-02-08Move arm from ports to libc.Joseph Myers
I've moved the ARM port from ports to the main sysdeps hierarchy. Beyond the README update, the move of the files was simply git mv ports/sysdeps/arm sysdeps/arm git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/arm sysdeps/unix/arm git mv ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm and in addition to the ChangeLog entries here, I put a note at the top of ports/ChangeLog.arm similar to that at the top of ChangeLog.powerpc. There is deliberately no NEWS change, as I think it makes the most sense to put in a general note above all ports having moved if we can achieve that for 2.20. Tested that disassembly of installed shared libraries for arm is the same before and after this patch, except for data (not instructions) in ld.so (there are assertions in sysdeps/arm/dl-machine.h, and the path by which that file is found, and so by which it appears in the assertion message, changes as a result of the move). * sysdeps/arm: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/arm. * sysdeps/unix/arm: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/unix/arm. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm: Move directory from ports/sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm. * README: Update listing for arm-*-linux-gnueabi. ports/ChangeLog.arm: * sysdeps/arm: Move directory to ../sysdeps/arm. * sysdeps/unix/arm: Move directory to ../sysdeps.arm. * sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm: Move directory to ../sysdeps/unix/sysv/linux/arm.
