Use try_cmpxchg64 instead of cmpxchg64 (*ptr, old, new) != old in sched_clock_{local,remote}. x86 cmpxchg returns success in ZF flag, so this change saves a compare after cmpxchg (and related move instruction in front of cmpxchg). Signed-off-by:Uros Bizjak <ubizjak@gmail.com> Signed-off-by:

Introduce arch_try_cmpxchg64 for 64-bit and 32-bit targets to improve code using cmpxchg64. On 64-bit targets, the generated assembly improves from: ab: 89 c8 mov %ecx,%eax ad: 48 89 4c 24 60 mov %rcx,0x60(%rsp) b2: 83 e0 fd and $0xfffffffd,%eax b5: 89 54 24 64 mov %edx,0x64(%rsp) b9: 88 44 24 60 mov %al,0x60(%rsp) bd: 48 89 c8 mov %rcx,%rax c0: c6 44 24 62 f2 movb $0xf2,0x62(%rsp) c5: 48 8b 74 24 60 mov 0x60(%rsp),%rsi ca: f0 49 0f b1 34 24 lock cmpxchg %rsi,(%r12) d0: 48 39 c1 cmp %rax,%rcx d3: 75 cf jne a4 <t+0xa4> to: b3: 89 c2 mov %eax,%edx b5: 48 89 44 24 60 mov %rax,0x60(%rsp) ba: 83 e2 fd and $0xfffffffd,%edx bd: 89 4c 24 64 mov %ecx,0x64(%rsp) c1: 88 54 24 60 mov %dl,0x60(%rsp) c5: c6 44 24 62 f2 movb $0xf2,0x62(%rsp) ca: 48 8b 54 24 60 mov 0x60(%rsp),%rdx cf: f0 48 0f b1 13 lock cmpxchg %rdx,(%rbx) d4: 75 d5 jne ab <t+0xab> where a move and a compare after cmpxchg is saved. The improvements for 32-bit targets are even more noticeable, because dual-word compare after cmpxchg8b gets eliminated. Signed-off-by:

Earlier the PREEMPT_RT patch had a PREEMPT_RT_FULL and PREEMPT_RT_BASE Kconfig option. The latter was a subset of the functionality that was enabled with PREEMPT_RT_FULL and was mainly useful for debugging. During the merging efforts the two Kconfig options were abandoned in the v5.4.3-rt1 release and since then there is only PREEMPT_RT which enables the full features set (as PREEMPT_RT_FULL did in earlier releases). Replace the PREEMPT_RT_FULL reference with PREEMPT_RT. Signed-off-by:

Have the trace_contention_*() tracepoints consistently include adaptive spinning. In order to differentiate between the spinning and non-spinning states add LCB_F_MUTEX and combine with LCB_F_SPIN. The consequence is that a mutex contention can now triggler multiple _begin() tracepoints before triggering an _end(). Additionally, this fixes one path where mutex would trigger _end() without ever seeing a _begin(). Signed-off-by: -

This adds two new lock contention tracepoints like below: * lock:contention_begin * lock:contention_end The lock:contention_begin takes a flags argument to classify locks. I found it useful to identify what kind of locks it's tracing like if it's spinning or sleeping, reader-writer lock, real-time, and per-cpu. Move tracepoint definitions into mutex.c so that we can use them without lockdep. Signed-off-by:

For writers, the out_nolock path will always attempt to wake up waiters. This may not be really necessary if the waiter to be removed is not the first one. For readers, no attempt to wake up waiter is being made. However, if the HANDOFF bit is set and the reader to be removed is the first waiter, the waiter behind it will inherit the HANDOFF bit and for a write lock waiter waking it up will allow it to spin on the lock to acquire it faster. So it can be beneficial to do a wakeup in this case. Add a new rwsem_del_wake_waiter() helper function to do that consistently for both reader and writer out_nolock paths. Signed-off-by:

Waiman Long authored
In an analysis of a recent vmcore, a reader-owned rwsem was found with 385 readers but no writer in the wait queue. That is kind of unusual but it may be caused by some race conditions that we have not fully understood yet. In such a case, all the readers in the wait queue should join the other reader-owners and acquire the read lock. In rwsem_down_write_slowpath(), an incoming writer will try to wake up the front readers under such circumstance. That is not the case for rwsem_down_read_slowpath(), add a new helper function rwsem_cond_wake_waiter() to do wakeup and use it in both reader and writer slowpaths to have a consistent and correct behavior.

Since commit d257cc8c ("locking/rwsem: Make handoff bit handling more consistent"), the handoff bit is always cleared if the wait queue becomes empty. There is no need to check for RWSEM_FLAG_HANDOFF when the wait list is known to be empty. Signed-off-by:

After being merged, user_events become more visible to a wider audience that have concerns with the current API. It is too late to fix this for this release, but instead of a full revert, just mark it as BROKEN (which prevents it from being selected in make config). Then we can work finding a better API. If that fails, then it will need to be completely reverted. To not have the code silently bitrot, still allow building it with COMPILE_TEST. And to prevent the uapi header from being installed, then later changed, and then have an old distro user space see the old version, move the header file out of the uapi directory. Surround the include with CONFIG_COMPILE_TEST to the current location, but when the BROKEN tag is taken off, it will use the uapi directory, and fail to compile. This is a good way to remind us to move the header back.

ftrace_graph_is_dead() is used on hot paths, it just reads a variable in memory and is not worth suffering function call constraints. For instance, at entry of prepare_ftrace_return(), inlining it avoids saving prepare_ftrace_return() parameters to stack and restoring them after calling ftrace_graph_is_dead(). While at it using a static branch is even more performant and is rather well adapted considering that the returned value will almost never change. Inline ftrace_graph_is_dead() and replace 'kill_ftrace_graph' bool by a static branch. The performance improvement is noticeable.
