Note that the _Owner field // is advisory and is used only to verify that the thread calling unlock() // is indeed the last thread to have acquired the lock. // // * Contending threads "push" themselves onto the front of the contention // queue -- called the cxq -- with CAS and then spin/park. // The _LockWord contains the LockByte as well as the pointer to the head // of the cxq. Colocating the LockByte with the cxq precludes certain races. // // * Using a separately addressable LockByte allows for CAS:MEMBAR or CAS:0 // idioms. We currently use MEMBAR in the uncontended unlock() path, as // MEMBAR often has less latency than CAS. If warranted, we could switch to // a CAS:0 mode, using timers to close the resultant race, as is done // with Java Monitors in synchronizer.cpp. // // See the following for a discussion of the relative cost of atomics (CAS) // MEMBAR, and ways to eliminate such instructions from the common-case paths: // -- http://blogs.sun.com/dave/entry/biased_locking_in_hotspot // -- http://blogs.sun.com/dave/resource/MustangSync.pdf // -- http://blogs.sun.com/dave/resource/synchronization-public2.pdf // -- synchronizer.cpp // // * Overall goals - desiderata // 1. Minimize context switching // 2. Minimize lock migration // 3. Minimize CPI -- affinity and locality // 4. Minimize the execution of high-latency instructions such as CAS or MEMBAR // 5. Minimize outer lock hold times // 6. Behave gracefully on a loaded system // // * Thread flow and list residency: // // Contention queue --> EntryList --> OnDeck --> Owner --> !Owner // [..resident on monitor list..] // [...........contending..................] // // -- The contention queue (cxq) contains recently-arrived threads (RATs). // Threads on the cxq eventually drain into the EntryList. // -- Invariant: a thread appears on at most one list -- cxq, EntryList // or WaitSet -- at any one time. // -- For a given monitor there can be at most one "OnDeck" thread at any // given time but if needbe this particular invariant could be relaxed. // // * The WaitSet and EntryList linked lists are composed of ParkEvents. // I use ParkEvent instead of threads as ParkEvents are immortal and // type-stable, meaning we can safely unpark() a possibly stale // list element in the unlock()-path. (That's benign). // // * Succession policy - providing for progress: // // As necessary, the unlock()ing thread identifies, unlinks, and unparks // an "heir presumptive" tentative successor thread from the EntryList. // This becomes the so-called "OnDeck" thread, of which there can be only // one at any given time for a given monitor. The wakee will recontend // for ownership of monitor. // // Succession is provided for by a policy of competitive handoff. // The exiting thread does _not_ grant or pass ownership to the // successor thread. (This is also referred to as "handoff" succession"). // Instead the exiting thread releases ownership and possibly wakes // a successor, so the successor can (re)compete for ownership of the lock. // // Competitive handoff provides excellent overall throughput at the expense // of short-term fairness. If fairness is a concern then one remedy might // be to add an AcquireCounter field to the monitor. After a thread acquires // the lock it will decrement the AcquireCounter field. When the count // reaches 0 the thread would reset the AcquireCounter variable, abdicate // the lock directly to some thread on the EntryList, and then move itself to the // tail of the EntryList. // // But in practice most threads engage or otherwise participate in resource // bounded producer-consumer relationships, so lock domination is not usually // a practical concern. Recall too, that in general it's easier to construct // a fair lock from a fast lock, but not vice-versa. // // * The cxq can have multiple concurrent "pushers" but only one concurrent // detaching thread. This mechanism is immune from the ABA corruption. // More precisely, the CAS-based "push" onto cxq is ABA-oblivious. // We use OnDeck as a pseudo-lock to enforce the at-most-one detaching // thread constraint. // // * Taken together, the cxq and the EntryList constitute or form a // single logical queue of threads stalled trying to acquire the lock. // We use two distinct lists to reduce heat on the list ends. // Threads in lock() enqueue onto cxq while threads in unlock() will // dequeue from the EntryList. (c.f. Michael Scott's "2Q" algorithm). // A key desideratum is to minimize queue & monitor metadata manipulation // that occurs while holding the "outer" monitor lock -- that is, we want to // minimize monitor lock holds times. // // The EntryList is ordered by the prevailing queue discipline and // can be organized in any convenient fashion, such as a doubly-linked list or // a circular doubly-linked list. If we need a priority queue then something akin // to Solaris' sleepq would work nicely. Viz., // -- http://agg.eng/ws/on10_nightly/source/usr/src/uts/common/os/sleepq.c. // -- http://cvs.opensolaris.org/source/xref/onnv/onnv-gate/usr/src/uts/common/os/sleepq.c // Queue discipline is enforced at ::unlock() time, when the unlocking thread // drains the cxq into the EntryList, and orders or reorders the threads on the // EntryList accordingly. // // Barring "lock barging", this mechanism provides fair cyclic ordering, // somewhat similar to an elevator-scan. // // * OnDeck // -- For a given monitor there can be at most one OnDeck thread at any given // instant. The OnDeck thread is contending for the lock, but has been // unlinked from the EntryList and cxq by some previous unlock() operations. // Once a thread has been designated the OnDeck thread it will remain so // until it manages to acquire the lock -- being OnDeck is a stable property. // -- Threads on the EntryList or cxq are _not allowed to attempt lock acquisition. // -- OnDeck also serves as an "inner lock" as follows. Threads in unlock() will, after // having cleared the LockByte and dropped the outer lock, attempt to "trylock" // OnDeck by CASing the field from null to non-null. If successful, that thread // is then responsible for progress and succession and can use CAS to detach and // drain the cxq into the EntryList. By convention, only this thread, the holder of // the OnDeck inner lock, can manipulate the EntryList or detach and drain the // RATs on the cxq into the EntryList. This avoids ABA corruption on the cxq as // we allow multiple concurrent "push" operations but restrict detach concurrency // to at most one thread. Having selected and detached a successor, the thread then // changes the OnDeck to refer to that successor, and then unparks the successor. // That successor will eventually acquire the lock and clear OnDeck. Beware // that the OnDeck usage as a lock is asymmetric. A thread in unlock() transiently // "acquires" OnDeck, performs queue manipulations, passes OnDeck to some successor, // and then the successor eventually "drops" OnDeck. Note that there's never // any sense of contention on the inner lock, however. Threads never contend // or wait for the inner lock. // -- OnDeck provides for futile wakeup throttling a described in section 3.3 of // See http://www.usenix.org/events/jvm01/full_papers/dice/dice.pdf // In a sense, OnDeck subsumes the ObjectMonitor _Succ and ObjectWaiter // TState fields found in Java-level objectMonitors. (See synchronizer.cpp). // // * Waiting threads reside on the WaitSet list -- wait() puts // the caller onto the WaitSet. Notify() or notifyAll() simply // transfers threads from the WaitSet to either the EntryList or cxq. // Subsequent unlock() operations will eventually unpark the notifyee. // Unparking a notifee in notify() proper is inefficient - if we were to do so // it's likely the notifyee would simply impale itself on the lock held // by the notifier. // // * The mechanism is obstruction-free in that if the holder of the transient // OnDeck lock in unlock() is preempted or otherwise stalls, other threads // can still acquire and release the outer lock and continue to make progress. // At worst, waking of already blocked contending threads may be delayed, // but nothing worse. (We only use "trylock" operations on the inner OnDeck // lock). // // * Note that thread-local storage must be initialized before a thread // uses Native monitors or mutexes. The native monitor-mutex subsystem // depends on Thread::current(). // // * The monitor synchronization subsystem avoids the use of native // synchronization primitives except for the narrow platform-specific // park-unpark abstraction. See the comments in os_solaris.cpp regarding // the semantics of park-unpark. Put another way, this monitor implementation // depends only on atomic operations and park-unpark. The monitor subsystem // manages all RUNNING->BLOCKED and BLOCKED->READY transitions while the // underlying OS manages the READY<->RUN transitions. // // * The memory consistency model provide by lock()-unlock() is at least as // strong or stronger than the Java Memory model defined by JSR-133. // That is, we guarantee at least entry consistency, if not stronger. // See http://g.oswego.edu/dl/jmm/cookbook.html. // // * Thread:: currently contains a set of purpose-specific ParkEvents: // _MutexEvent, _ParkEvent, etc. A better approach might be to do away with // the purpose-specific ParkEvents and instead implement a general per-thread // stack of available ParkEvents which we could provision on-demand. The // stack acts as a local cache to avoid excessive calls to ParkEvent::Allocate() // and ::Release(). A thread would simply pop an element from the local stack before it // enqueued or park()ed. When the contention was over the thread would // push the no-longer-needed ParkEvent back onto its stack. // // * A slightly reduced form of ILock() and IUnlock() have been partially // model-checked (Murphi) for safety and progress at T=1,2,3 and 4. // It'd be interesting to see if TLA/TLC could be useful as well. // // * Mutex-Monitor is a low-level "leaf" subsystem. That is, the monitor // code should never call other code in the JVM that might itself need to // acquire monitors or mutexes. That's true *except* in the case of the // ThreadBlockInVM state transition wrappers. The ThreadBlockInVM DTOR handles // mutator reentry (ingress) by checking for a pending safepoint in which case it will // call SafepointSynchronize::block(), which in turn may call Safepoint_lock->lock(), etc. // In that particular case a call to lock() for a given Monitor can end up recursively // calling lock() on another monitor. While distasteful, this is largely benign // as the calls come from jacket that wraps lock(), and not from deep within lock() itself. // // It's unfortunate that native mutexes and thread state transitions were convolved. // They're really separate concerns and should have remained that way. Melding // them together was facile -- a bit too facile. The current implementation badly // conflates the two concerns. // // * TODO-FIXME: // // -- Add DTRACE probes for contended acquire, contended acquired, contended unlock // We should also add DTRACE probes in the ParkEvent subsystem for // Park-entry, Park-exit, and Unpark. // // -- We have an excess of mutex-like constructs in the JVM, namely: // 1. objectMonitors for Java-level synchronization (synchronizer.cpp) // 2. low-level muxAcquire and muxRelease // 3. low-level spinAcquire and spinRelease // 4. native Mutex:: and Monitor:: // 5. jvm_raw_lock() and _unlock() // 6.

These locks may be sneakily acquired by the // VM thread during a safepoint to avoid deadlocks. Alternatively, one should // identify all such locks, and ensure that Java threads never block at // safepoints while holding them (_no_safepoint_check_flag). While it // seems as though this could increase the time to reach a safepoint // (or at least increase the mean, if not the variance), the latter // approach might make for a cleaner, more maintainable JVM design. // // Sneaking is vile and reprehensible and should be excised at the 1st // opportunity. It's possible that the need for sneaking could be obviated // as follows. Currently, a thread might (a) while TBIVM, call pthread_mutex_lock // or ILock() thus acquiring the "physical" lock underlying Monitor/Mutex. // (b) stall at the TBIVM exit point as a safepoint is in effect. Critically, // it'll stall at the TBIVM reentry state transition after having acquired the // underlying lock, but before having set _owner and having entered the actual // critical section. The lock-sneaking facility leverages that fact and allowed the // VM thread to logically acquire locks that had already be physically locked by mutators // but where mutators were known blocked by the reentry thread state transition. // // If we were to modify the Monitor-Mutex so that TBIVM state transitions tightly // wrapped calls to park(), then we could likely do away with sneaking. We'd // decouple lock acquisition and parking. The critical invariant to eliminating // sneaking is to ensure that we never "physically" acquire the lock while TBIVM. // An easy way to accomplish this is to wrap the park calls in a narrow TBIVM jacket. // One difficulty with this approach is that the TBIVM wrapper could recurse and // call lock() deep from within a lock() call, while the MutexEvent was already enqueued. // Using a stack (N=2 at minimum) of ParkEvents would take care of that problem. // // But of course the proper ultimate approach is to avoid schemes that require explicit // sneaking or dependence on any any clever invariants or subtle implementation properties // of Mutex-Monitor and instead directly address the underlying design flaw. void Monitor::lock (Thread * Self) { #ifdef CHECK_UNHANDLED_OOPS // Clear unhandled oops so we get a crash right away.
