ipc/sem.c begins with a 15 year old description about bugs in the initial implementation in Linux-1.0. The patch replaces that with a top level description of the current code. A TODO could be derived from this text: The opengroup man page for semop() does not mandate FIFO. Thus there is no need for a semaphore array list of pending operations. If - this list is removed - the per-semaphore array spinlock is removed (possible if there is no list to protect) - sem_otime is moved into the semaphores and calculated on demand during semctl() then the array would be read-mostly - which would significantly improve scaling for applications that use semaphore arrays with lots of entries. The price would be expensive semctl() calls: for(i=0;i<sma->sem_nsems;i++) spin_lock(sma->sem_lock); <do stuff> for(i=0;i<sma->sem_nsems;i++) spin_unlock(sma->sem_lock); I'm not sure if the complexity is worth the effort, thus here is the documentation of the current behavior first.

Cacheline align the spinlock for sysv semaphores. Without the patch, the spinlock and sem_otime [written by every semop that modified the array] and sem_base [read in the hot path of try_atomic_semop()] can be in the same cacheline.

The wake-up part of semtimedop() consists out of two steps: - the right tasks must be identified. - they must be woken up. Right now, both steps run while the array spinlock is held. This patch reorders the code and moves the actual wake_up_process() behind the point where the spinlock is dropped. The code also moves setting sem->sem_otime to one place: It does not make sense to set the last modify time multiple times.

The following series of patches tries to fix the spinlock contention reported by Chris Mason - his benchmark exposes problems of the current code: - In the worst case, the algorithm used by update_queue() is O(N^2). Bulk wake-up calls can enter this worst case. The patch series fix that. Note that the benchmark app doesn't expose the problem, it just should be fixed: Real world apps might do the wake-ups in another order than perfect FIFO. - The part of the code that runs within the semaphore array spinlock is significantly larger than necessary. The patch series fixes that. This change is responsible for the main improvement. - The cacheline with the spinlock is also used for a variable that is read in the hot path (sem_base) and for a variable that is unnecessarily written to multiple times (sem_otime). The last step of the series cacheline-aligns the spinlock. This patch: The SysV semaphore code allows to perform multiple operations on all semaphores in the array as atomic operations. After a modification, update_queue() checks which of the waiting tasks can complete. The algorithm that is used to identify the tasks is O(N^2) in the worst case. For some cases, it is simple to avoid the O(N^2). The patch adds a detection logic for some cases, especially for the case of an array where all sleeping tasks are single sembuf operations and a multi-sembuf operation is used to wake up multiple tasks. A big database application uses that approach. The patch fixes wakeup due to semctl(,,SETALL,) - the initial version of the patch breaks that.

Currently idr_remove_all will fail with a use after free error if idr::layers is bigger than 2, which on 32 bit systems corresponds to items more than 1024. This is due to stepping back too many levels during backtracking. For simplicity let's assume that IDR_BITS=1 -> we have 2 nodes at each level below the root node and each leaf node stores two IDs. (In reality for 32 bit systems IDR_BITS=5, with 32 nodes at each sub-root level and 32 IDs in each leaf node). The sequence of freeing the nodes at the moment is as follows: layer 1 -> a(7) 2 -> b(3) c(5) 3 -> d(1) e(2) f(4) g(6) Until step 4 things go fine, but then node c is freed, whereas node g should be freed first. Since node c contains the pointer to node g we'll have a use after free error at step 6. How many levels we step back after visiting the leaf nodes is currently determined by the msb of the id we are currently visiting: Step 1. node d with IDs 0,1 is freed, current ID is advanced to 2. msb of the current ID bit 1. This means we need to step back 1 level to node b and take the next sibling, node e. 2-3. node e with IDs 2,3 is freed, current ID is 4, msb is bit 2. This means we need to step back 2 levels to node a, freeing node b on the way. 4-5. node f with IDs 4,5 is freed, current ID is 6, msb is still bit 2. This means we again need to step back 2 levels to node a and free c on the way. 6. We should visit node g, but its pointer is not available as node c was freed. The fix changes how we determine the number of levels to step back. Instead of deducting this merely from the msb of the current ID, we should really check if advancing the ID causes an overflow to a bit position corresponding to a given layer. In the above example overflow from bit 0 to bit 1 should mean stepping back 1 level. Overflow from bit 1 to bit 2 should mean stepping back 2 levels and so on. The fix was tested with IDs up to 1 << 20, which corresponds to 4 layers on 32 bit systems.

Currently, onlining or offlining a CPU failure by one of the cpu notifiers error always cause -EINVAL error. (i.e. writing 0 or 1 to /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpuX/online gets EINVAL) To get better error reporting rather than always getting -EINVAL, This changes cpu_notify() to return -errno value with notifier_to_errno() and fix the callers. Now that cpu notifiers can return encapsulate errno value. Currently, all cpu hotplug notifiers return NOTIFY_OK, NOTIFY_BAD, or NOTIFY_DONE. So cpu_notify() can returns 0 or -EPERM with this change for now. (notifier_to_errno(NOTIFY_OK) == 0, notifier_to_errno(NOTIFY_DONE) == 0, notifier_to_errno(NOTIFY_BAD) == -EPERM) Forthcoming patches convert several cpu notifiers to return encapsulate errno value with notifier_from_errno().

No functional changes, just s/atomic_t count/int nr_threads/. With the recent changes this counter has a single user, get_nr_threads() And, none of its callers need the really accurate number of threads, not to mention each caller obviously races with fork/exit. It is only used to report this value to the user-space, except first_tid() uses it to avoid the unnecessary while_each_thread() loop in the unlikely case. It is a bit sad we need a word in struct signal_struct for this, perhaps we can change get_nr_threads() to approximate the number of threads using signal->live and kill ->nr_threads later.

When the last thread exits signal->tty is freed, but the pointer is not cleared and points to nowhere. This is OK. Nobody should use signal->tty lockless, and it is no longer possible to take ->siglock. However this looks wrong even if correct, and the nice OOPS is better than subtle and hard to find bugs. Change __exit_signal() to clear signal->tty under ->siglock. Note: __exit_signal() needs more cleanups. It should not check "sig != NULL" to detect the all-dead case and we have the same issues with signal->stats.

We have a lot of problems with accessing task_struct->signal, it can "disappear" at any moment. Even current can't use its ->signal safely after exit_notify(). ->siglock helps, but it is not convenient, not always possible, and sometimes it makes sense to use task->signal even after this task has already dead. This patch adds the reference counter, sigcnt, into signal_struct. This reference is owned by task_struct and it is dropped in __put_task_struct(). Perhaps it makes sense to export get/put_signal_struct() later, but currently I don't see the immediate reason. Rename __cleanup_signal() to free_signal_struct() and unexport it. With the previous changes it does nothing except kmem_cache_free(). Change __exit_signal() to not clear/free ->signal, it will be freed when the last reference to any thread in the thread group goes away. Note: - when the last thead exits signal->tty can point to nowhere, see the next patch. - with or without this patch signal_struct->count should go away, or at least it should be "int nr_threads" for fs/proc. This will be addressed later.

tty_kref_put() has two callsites in copy_process() paths, 1. if copy_process() suceeds it is called before we copy signal->tty from parent 2. otherwise it is called from __cleanup_signal() under bad_fork_cleanup_signal: label In both cases tty_kref_put() is not right and unneeded because we don't have the balancing tty_kref_get(). Fortunately, this is harmless because this can only happen without CLONE_THREAD, and in this case signal->tty must be NULL. Remove tty_kref_put() from copy_process() and __cleanup_signal(), and change another caller of __cleanup_signal(), __exit_signal(), to call tty_kref_put() by hand. I hope this change makes sense by itself, but it is also needed to make ->signal refcountable.

Preparation to make task->signal immutable, no functional changes. It doesn't matter which pointer we check under tasklist to ensure the task was not released, ->signal or ->sighand. But we are going to make ->signal refcountable, change the code to use ->sighand. Note: this code doesn't need this check and tasklist_lock at all, it should be converted to use lock_task_sighand(). And, the code under SIGNAL_STOP_STOPPED check looks wrong.

Preparation to make task->signal immutable, no functional changes. posix-cpu-timers.c checks task->signal != NULL to ensure this task is alive and didn't pass __exit_signal(). This is correct but we are going to change the lifetime rules for ->signal and never reset this pointer. Change the code to check ->sighand instead, it doesn't matter which pointer we check under tasklist, they both are cleared simultaneously. As Roland pointed out, some of these changes are not strictly needed and probably it makes sense to revert them later, when ->signal will be pinned to task_struct. But this patch tries to ensure the subsequent changes in fork/exit can't make any visible impact on posix cpu timers.

Change __exit_signal() to check thread_group_leader() instead of atomic_dec_and_test(&sig->count). This must be equivalent, the group leader must be released only after all other threads have exited and passed __exit_signal(). Henceforth sig->count is not actually used, except in fs/proc for get_nr_threads/etc. Signed-off-by: NOleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Acked-by: NRoland McGrath <roland@redhat.com> Cc: Veaceslav Falico <vfalico@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
