Subject: [PATCH 5/7] perf bench futex: Fix hung wakeup tasks after requeueing
Date: Mon, 27 Apr 2015 14:04:07 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1430154249-28268-6-git-send-email-acme@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1430154249-28268-1-git-send-email-acme@kernel.org>
From: Davidlohr Bueso <dave@stgolabs.net>
The futex-requeue benchmark can hang because of missing wakeups once the
benchmark is done, ie:
[Run 1]: Requeued 1024 of 1024 threads in 0.3290 ms
perf: couldn't wakeup all tasks (135/1024)
This bug, while perhaps suggesting missing wakeups in kernel futex code,
is merely a consequence of the crappy FUTEX_CMP_REQUEUE man page,
incorrectly mentioning that the number of requeued tasks is in fact
returned, not the wakeups.
This patch acknowledges this and updates the corresponding futex_wake
code around it.
