Hm, i suspect this should be sys_ni because FRV does not set 
HAVE_PERF_COUNTERS so perfcounters cannot be enabled. (Or do you 
have patches in the pipeline that enable perfcounters for FRV?)

It doesn't matter because of the cond_syscall() in kernel/sys_ni.c.
Right now, scripts/checksyscalls.sh causes a warning on each architecture
that does not assign a system call number for sys_perf_counter_open,
so they might as well make it point to sys_ni though cond_syscall().

It would make sense to wire it up for real as it's really easy: just 
set HAVE_PERF_COUNTERS in arch/frv/Kconfig, add an empty 
arch/frv/include/asm/perf_counter.h file. (Optional: double check 
that tools/perf/ builds and works fine on FRV ;-)

Are these for hardware performance counters?

No. PMU support is not necessary in the first step, you'll still get 
plenty of features from enabling perfcounters on FRV:

  - hrtimer driven recording/profiling

  - various software counters

  - working perf top / perf stat / perf record / perf report

The tools will all work out of box and there's a transparent 
fall-back path in the tools if the hardware counters are not 
available.

It's much easier to add than basic Oprofile support, and you'll get 
a lot more features in exchange as well ;)

  us any problems (tools/perf/ does not build cleanly, features dont
  work as expected, etc.). ]

It requires atomic64_t.  Is that mandatory on all arches now?

I did a generic implementation using irq disable on UP and hashed
spin-locks on SMP.  See 09d4e0ed for the implementation and c2e95c6d
for an example of how to wire it up.

I can do better than that on FRV.  FRV has load/store-double instructions that
I can use to atomically load/store 64-bit memory locations by using paired
registers for the data.

Yeah - still i'd suggest to just go with the generic code initially, 
as then 'perf' output itself can be used to verify whether the FRV 
atomic64_t implementation is correct.

Nah, that's no fun!  Besides, the code is very similar to the 32-bit code, and
I'm fairly certain it'll work.  I can also check it very easily by dumping
some temp test code in setup.c.

Anyway, I see the following errors:

kernel/perf_counter.c: In function 'perf_counter_index':
kernel/perf_counter.c:1889: error: 'PERF_COUNTER_INDEX_OFFSET' undeclared (first use in this function)
kernel/perf_counter.c:1889: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
kernel/perf_counter.c:1889: error: for each function it appears in.)
  CC      block/as-iosched.o
kernel/perf_counter.c:1890: warning: control reaches end of non-void function

But this symbol appears to be undocumented:

Ok, indeed - you can define it to 0 for now - FRV wont set hw 
counters so it doesnt matter. It is used for the hw index in the 
mmap head for 'direct' access to the PMU, using special instructions 
like RDPMC (on x86). Probably not relevant to FRV.

You can use the power of the Git space:

   git log -SPERF_COUNTER_INDEX_OFFSET

:-)

Okay.  FRV does have some h/w perf counters for measuring various things about
userspace and kernel execution.  I'll have to look at how to use them with
this.

These seem to be buggy.

At least "atomic64_read()" needs to make sure to actually read it 
atomically - otherwise you'll do two 32-bit reads, and that just gets 
crap. Imagine if somebody is adding 1 to 0x00000000ffffffff, and then 
"atomic64_read()" reads it as two accesses in the wrong place, and gets 
either 0, or 0x00000001ffffffff, both of which are totally incorrect.

The case of 'atomic64_set()' is _slightly_ less clear, because I think we 
use it mostly for initializers, so atomicity is often not strictly 
required. But at least on x86, we do guarantee that it sets it atomically 
too.

Btw, Ingo: I looked at the x86-32 versions to be sure, and noticed a 
couple of buglets:

 - atomic64_xchg uses "atomic_read()". Sure, it happens to work, since 
   the "atomic_read()" is not type-safe, and gets a non-atomic 64-bit 
   read, but that looks really really bogus.

   It _should_ use __atomic64_read(), and the 64-bit versions should use a 
   different counter name ("counter64"?) or we should use an inline 
   function for atomic_read(), so that the type safety issue gets fixed.

 - atomic64_read() is being stupid with the whole loop thing. It _should_ 
   just do

	static inline unsigned long long atomic64_read(atomic64_t *ptr)
	{
		unsigned long long old = __atomic64_read(ptr);
		return cmpxchg8b(ptr, old, old);
	}

   and that's it. No loop. cmpxchg8b() will return the right thing.

 - Similarly, atomic64_add_return() is bogus for the same reasons: using 
   the wrong 'atomic_read()', and unnecessarily ignoring the returned old 
   value. It probably should do

	static inline unsigned long long
	atomic64_add_return(unsigned long long delta, atomic64_t *ptr)
	{
		unsigned long long old;

		old = __atomic_read64(ptr);
		for (;;) {
			unsigned long long tmp, new;
			new = old + delta;
			tmp = atomic64_cmpxchg(ptr, old, new);
			if (tmp == old)
				return new;
			old = tmp;
		}
	}

   or something. NOTE NOTE NOTE! Not tested!

Those functions also almost certainly should _not_ be inlined. They need 
so many registers that inlining them is crazy.

Good point.  I should be doing inline asm with LDD and STD instructions.

[PATCH] x86: Code atomic(64)_read and atomic(64)_set in C not CPP [was Re: FRV: Implement atomic64_t]

[Paul Mackerras]

Occasionally we get bugs where atomic_read or atomic_set are used on
atomic64_t variables or vice versa.  These bugs don't generate
warnings on x86 because atomic_read and atomic_set are coded as macros
rather than C functions, so we don't get any type-checking on their
arguments; similarly for atomic64_read and atomic64_set in 64-bit
kernels.

This converts them to C functions so that the arguments are
type-checked and bugs like this will get caught more easily.
It also converts atomic_cmpxchg and atomic_xchg, and atomic64_cmpxchg
and atomic64_xchg on 64-bit, so we get type-checking on their
arguments too.

Compiling a typical 64-bit x86 config, this generates no new warnings,
and the vmlinux text is 86 bytes smaller.

I did this patch a few weeks ago (before the merge window) and sent it
to Ingo, Thomas & Peter, but it seems to have got lost.

Yeah, as i noted back then off-list i didnt take it due to it 
causing a criss-cross merge:

| Nice - could someone please remind us later in the merge window to

Linus reminded us ;-)

[PATCH 1/2] FRV: Implement atomic64_t [ver #2]

Implement atomic64_t and its ops for FRV.  Tested with the following patch:

This is now:

	static inline long long atomic64_read(atomic64_t *v)
	{
		long long counter;

		asm("ldd%I1 %M1,%0"
		    : "=e"(counter)
		    : "m"(v->counter));
		return counter;
	}

	static inline void atomic64_set(atomic64_t *v, long long i)
	{
		asm volatile("std%I0 %1,%M0"
			     : "=m"(v->counter)
			     : "e"(i));
	}

which causes the CPU to do 64-bit loads and stores to register pairs.

Using a fixed initial value (instead of __atomic64_read()) is even faster, 
it apparently permits cpu to use an appropriate bus transaction.

static inline unsigned long long atomic64_read(atomic64_t *ptr)
{
	unsigned long long old = 0LL ;

	return cmpxchg8b(&ptr->counter, old, old);
}

I also rewrote cmpxchg8b() to not use %edi register but a generic "+m" constraint.

static inline unsigned long long
cmpxchg8b(unsigned long long *ptr, unsigned long long old, unsigned long long new)
{
        unsigned long low = new;
        unsigned long high = new >> 32;

        asm volatile(
                LOCK_PREFIX "cmpxchg8b %1\n"
                     :  "+A" (old), "+m" (*ptr)
                     :  "b" (low), "c" (high)
                     );
        return old;
}



I got a 4 x speedup on a dual quad core (Intel E5450) machine if all cpus try 
to *read* the same atomic64 location.

I tried various init value and got additional 5 % speedup chosing a
value *most probably* different than actual atomic64 one,
like (1LL << 32), with nice asm output...

static inline unsigned long long atomic64_read(atomic64_t *ptr)
{
	unsigned long long old = (1LL << 32) ;

	return cmpxchg8b(&ptr->counter, old, old);
}

Yeah, I guess it does a "read-for-write-ownership" and allows the thing to 
be done as a single cache transaction.

If we read it first, it will first get the cacheline for shared-read, and 
then the cmpxchg8b will need to turn it from shared to exclusive.

Of course, the _optimal_ situation would be if the cmpxchg8b didn't 
actually do the write at all when the value matches (and all cores could 
just keep it shared), but I guess that's not going to happen.

Too bad there is no pure 8-byte read op. Using MMX has too many downsides.

Btw, your numbers imply that for the atomic64_add_return(), we really 
would be much better off not reading the original value at all. Again, in 
that case, we really do want the "read-for-write-ownership" cache 
transaction, not a read.

I forgot to mention that if atomic64_t uses to cache lines, my test
program is 10x slower.

So we probably need an __attribute__((aligned(8)) on atomic64_t definition
as well, since alignof(atomic64_t) is 4, not 8 (!!!)

#include <stdio.h>

typedef struct {
        unsigned long long counter;
} atomic64_t;

typedef struct {
        unsigned long long __attribute__((aligned(8))) counter;
} atomic64_ta;

struct {
        int a;
        atomic64_t counter;
} s __attribute__((aligned(64)));

struct {
        int a;
        atomic64_ta counter;
} sa __attribute__((aligned(64)));

int main()
{
        printf("alignof(atomic64_t)=%d\n", __alignof__(atomic64_t));
        printf("alignof(atomic64_ta)=%d\n", __alignof__(atomic64_t));
        printf("alignof(unsigned long long)=%d\n", __alignof__(unsigned long long));
        printf("&s.counter=%p\n", &s.counter);
        printf("&sa.counter=%p\n", &sa.counter);
        return 0;
}

$ gcc -O2 -o test test.c ; ./test
alignof(atomic64_t)=4
alignof(atomic64_ta)=4
alignof(unsigned long long)=8

x86: atomic64: The atomic64_t data type should be 8 bytes aligned on 32-bit too

Locked instructions on two cache lines at once are painful. If
atomic64_t uses two cache lines, my test program is 10x slower.

The chance for that is significant: 4/32 or 12.5%.

Make sure an atomic64_t is 8 bytes aligned.

Btw, the comments here are not strictly correct.

It's not necessarily even about "two cachelines". It's true that crossing 
cachelines is extra painful, but from a CPU core angle, there's another 
access width that matters almost as much, namely the width of the bus 
between the core and the L1 cache. If it's not aligned to that, the core 
needs to do each 8-byte read/write as two accesses, even if it's to the 
same cacheline, and that complicates things.

The cacheline itself is generally larger than the cache access width. I 
could easily see a 64B cacheline, but a 256b (32B) bus between the cache 
and the core.

Making the atomics be naturally aligned means that you never cross either 
one, of course.

Sometimes, of course, that down-mux is where alignment happens, too.
Either which way, I don't think there is any doubt that unaligned
atomics are just asking for trouble.

x86: atomic64: Move the 32-bit atomic64_t implementation to a .c file

Linus noted that the atomic64_t primitives are all inlines
currently which is crazy because these functions have a large
register footprint anyway.

Move them to a separate file: arch/x86/lib/atomic64_32.c

Also, while at it, rename all uses of 'unsigned long long' to
the much shorter u64.

This makes the appearance of the prototypes a lot nicer - and
it also uncovered a few bugs where (yet unused) API variants
had 'long' as their return type instead of u64.

[ More intrusive changes are not yet done in this patch. ]

Can we please fix this horribly mis-named 'old_val' variable?

It's not 'old_val'. It should be 'new_val' or 'result'.

As it is, the above looks very wrong, and made me think that you had done 
the wrong semantics (ie "xadd" like semantics that literally return the 
pre-add 'old' value).

But on closer inspection, it looks like the code is correct, but the 
naming is just totally wrong.

Did you consider making atomic64_t a signed type on 32-bit x86 like it
is on all 64-bit platforms, and like atomic_t is everywhere?

That did not occur to me and it makes sense - this would clean up a 
few explicit s64 casts we do there currently.

x86: atomic64: Improve atomic64_read()

Linus noticed that the 32-bit version of atomic64_read() was
being overly complex with re-reading the value and doing a
retry loop over that.

Instead we can just rely on cmpxchg8b returning either the new
value or returning the current value.

We can use any 'old' value, which will be faster as it can be
loaded via immediates. Using some value that is not equal to
the real value in memory the instruction gets faster.

This also has the advantage that the CPU could avoid dirtying
the cacheline.

x86: atomic64: Improve atomic64_add_return()

Linus noted (based on Eric Dumazet's numbers) that we would
probably be better off not trying an atomic_read() in
atomic64_add_return() but intead intentionally let the first
cmpxchg8b fail - to get a cache-friendly 'give me ownership
of this cacheline' transaction. That can then be followed
by the real cmpxchg8b which sets the value local to the CPU.

x86: atomic64: Reduce size of functions

cmpxchg8b is a huge instruction in terms of register footprint,
we almost never want to inline it, not even within the same
code module.

GCC 4.3 still messes up for two functions, under-judging the
true cost of this instruction - so annotate two key functions
to reduce the bloat:

arch/x86/lib/atomic64_32.o:

   1763	      0	      0	   1763	    6e3	atomic64_32.o.before

x86: atomic64: Fix unclean type use in atomic64_xchg()

Linus noticed that atomic64_xchg() uses atomic_read(), which
happens to work because atomic_read() is a macro so the
.counter value gets u64-read on 32-bit too - but this is really
bogus and serious bugs are waiting to happen.

Fix atomic64_xchg() to use __atomic64_read() instead.

No code changed:

Hmm. The whole __atomic64_read() thing should be dropped. Are there any 
users? None of them should be valid, as Eric's numbers showed. It's 
apparently better to start out with a random value rather than actually 
trying to read it.

ah, yes.

We still have this use:

u64 atomic64_xchg(atomic64_t *ptr, u64 new_val)
{
        u64 old_val;

        do {
                old_val = __atomic64_read(ptr);
        } while (atomic64_cmpxchg(ptr, old_val, new_val) != old_val);

        return old_val;
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(atomic64_xchg);

I'm testing the commit below which improves this loop and also 
removes __atomic64_read().

Subject: [PATCH] x86: atomic64: Improve atomic64_xchg()

Remove the read-first logic from atomic64_xchg() and simplify
the loop.

This function was the last user of __atomic64_read() - remove it.

Also, change the 'real_val' assumption from the somewhat quirky
1ULL << 32 value to the (just as arbitrary, but simpler) value
of 0.

Now atomic64_read() is light weight (no register pressure and
small icache), we can inline it again.

Also use "=&A" constraint instead of "+A" to avoid warning
about unitialized 'res' variable. (gcc had to force 0 in eax/edx)

That clobbers or affects eax, ebx, ecx, edx. The only registers it 
does not clobber is esi, edi and rbp.

So it's not quite lightweight. But your patch reduced the kernel 
image size by 17 bytes so i guess it counts as an improvement - and 
we also avoid function calls.

Linus, what's your preference in this case?

also afaik cmpxchg implies the lock prefix, so no need to make an
explicit one... it just adds code size and alternatives-work

good point!

Is the same true of XADD as well? If yes then we can remove the lock 
prefix from those as well - there's a few uses of that on 32-bit and 
64-bit as well.

XADD also has no implicit LOCK. AFAIK the implicit semantics are 
only true for XCHG.

ok never mind I was wrong,
it seems cmpxchg does NOT imply a lock prefix, nor does xadd.

Indeed, i just checked the SDM and the lock prefix is not implicit.

Ignore the patch i sent out ;-)

No it doesn't; LOCK is implied for "xchg", but not for cmpxchg

x86: atomic64: Optimize CMPXCHG8B sequences to not use the LOCK prefix

Arjan noted that the CMPXCHG8B instruction has an implicit lock
prefix, so there's no need to add the prefix explicitly.

This gives us smaller code and smaller alternative-instructions
tables.

No, it only clobbers eax/edx. Yes, it touches ebx/ecx, but that's kind of 
incidental, and read-only, and doesn't matter.

> Linus, what's your preference in this case?

I think it's kind of subtle to do that thing, but it _is_ very much a 
special case. It's odd to use a cmpxchg8b to just do a read in the first 
place, so the fact that we then play other games with it is kind of 
immaterial.

Adding a comment about the magic "we don't care about the initial values 
in eax/edx and ebx/ecx, but they have to match in case we end up doing a 
writeback" might be a good idea.

Re: [PATCH -tip] x86: atomic64: inline atomic64_read()

[Linus Torvalds]

Btw, it's entirely possible that we could have a faster "atomic64_read()" 
if we have some guarantees about the behavior of the counter.

For example, let's assume that the counter is known to be monotonic: in 
that case, we could do a 64-bit read with something like

  u64 atomic64_read_monotonic(atomic64_t *p)
  {
	unsigned int last = read_high_word(p);
	do {
		lfence;
		low = read_low_word(p);
		high = last;
		lfence;
		last = read_high_word;
	} while (last != high)
	return ((u64)high << 32) | low;
  }

which is not necessarily all that much faster than the cmpxchg8b (the two 
lfence's aren't going to be cheap), but keeping the cacheline in a shared 
state might be a win.

Here, the "monotonic" part is only important because the above would not 
work in case the counter switches back and forth, ie if the value ever 
does an atomic increment and then an atomic decrement like this:

	0x0ffffffff -> 0x100000000 -> 0x0ffffffff

then the above read logic might see a "stable" high word of 0 (before and 
after), and a low word of 0 (in the middle), and think that the counter 
really was 0 at one point.

But if it's a strictly monotonic counter, or has some other stability 
guarantees (the way we have certain stability guarantees on PTE's, for 
example: we know that the high bits can only change if the low bits 
changed the present bit), you can sometimes do tricks like the above.

Do we actually _have_ any performance-critical 64-bit counters that have 
monotonicity guarantees? I have no idea. I'm just throwing out the notion.

Due to the 'counter value flipping' we do on perfcounters for 
certain workloads (attr.inherit_stat=1 counters - inherited counters 
that neverheless provide precise per thread readouts - not just 
precise summaries), the monotonicity assumption is not generally 
true anymore.

But it would be nice if Eric could measure your suggested primitive, 
just that we see how many cycles we are talking about. I suspect the 
biggest difference would be a many-readers testcase - but that wont 
normally happen on perfcounters as the counters typically get read 
only from a single thread of executin.

x86: atomic64: Code atomic(64)_read and atomic(64)_set in C not CPP

Occasionally we get bugs where atomic_read or atomic_set are
used on atomic64_t variables or vice versa.  These bugs don't
generate warnings on x86 because atomic_read and atomic_set are
coded as macros rather than C functions, so we don't get any
type-checking on their arguments; similarly for atomic64_read
and atomic64_set in 64-bit kernels.

This converts them to C functions so that the arguments are
type-checked and bugs like this will get caught more easily. It
also converts atomic_cmpxchg and atomic_xchg, and
atomic64_cmpxchg and atomic64_xchg on 64-bit, so we get
type-checking on their arguments too.

Compiling a typical 64-bit x86 config, this generates no new
warnings, and the vmlinux text is 86 bytes smaller.

Optimize atomic64_read() as a special open-coded
cmpxchg8b variant. This generates nicer code:

atomic64_t primitives are used by a handful of drivers,
so export the APIs consistently. These were inlined
before.

x86: atomic64: Export APIs to modules

atomic64_t primitives are used by a handful of drivers,
so export the APIs consistently. These were inlined
before.

Also mark atomic64_32.o a core object, so that the symbols
are available even if not linked to core kernel pieces.

x86: atomic64: Improve atomic64_xchg()

Remove the read-first logic from atomic64_xchg() and simplify
the loop.

This function was the last user of __atomic64_read() - remove it.

Also, change the 'real_val' assumption from the somewhat quirky
1ULL << 32 value to the (just as arbitrary, but simpler) value
of 0.

Something like the patch below?

Please review it carefully, as the perfcounter exposure to the 
conditional-arithmetics atomic64_t APIs is very low:

  earth4:~/tip> for N in $(git grep atomic64_ | grep perf_ |
    sed 's/(/ /g'); do echo $N; done | grep ^atomic64_ | sort | uniq -c | sort -n

      1 atomic64_add_negative
      1 atomic64_inc_return
      2 atomic64_xchg
      3 atomic64_cmpxchg
      3 atomic64_sub
      7 atomic64_t
     11 atomic64_add
     21 atomic64_set
     22 atomic64_read

So while i have tested it on a 32-bit box, it's only lightly tested 
(and possibly broken) due to the low exposure of the API.

Thanks,

	Ingo

Linus noted (based on Eric Dumazet's numbers) that we would
probably be better off not trying an atomic_read() in
atomic64_add_return() but intead intentionally let the first
cmpxchg8b fail - to get a cache-friendly 'give me ownership
of this cacheline' transaction. That can then be followed
by the real cmpxchg8b which sets the value local to the CPU.

Seems cool, I am going to apply it and test it too.

I cooked following patch, to address _cmpxchg() and _read().

[PATCH] x86: atomic64_t: _cmpxchg() & _read() optimizations

atomic64_cmpxchg() can use existing optimized __cmpxchg64() function,
no need to redefine another cmpxchg8b() variant (BTW this variant had
aliasing problems)

As suggested by Linus, atomic64_read() doesnt have to loop.

We can implement it with a single cmpxchg8b instruction, and avoid
initial reading of the value so that cpu can use a "read-for-write-ownership"
bus transaction.

We do not call __cmpxchg64() here because ebx/ecx values are not changed,
lowering register pressure for the compiler.

This saves 1008 bytes of code on vmlinux (CONFIG_PERF_COUNTERS=y)

Performance results (with a user mode program doing 10.000.000 atomic64_read()
on 2x4 cpus, all fighting on same atomic64_t location)

ok, lemme push out the series, i already picked up many of your

For the case where we actually have to keep looping until we succeed, 
we're probably better off starting with a good guess rather than a bad 
one.

So I'd suggest using 'real_val = 0', which gives smaller code, rather than 
the 1ull << 32 that is actively trying to be a bad guess.

It won't matter all that much (since 0 really isn't a much better guess 
than 1ull<<32), but I'd rather have a simple constant that doesn't matter, 
over an odd constant that makes no sense.

My last suggestion would be :

static inline unsigned long long atomic64_read(const atomic64_t *ptr)
{
	unsigned long long res;

	asm volatile(
		"mov     %%ebx, %%eax\n\t"
		"mov     %%ecx, %%edx\n\t"
		LOCK_PREFIX "cmpxchg8b %1\n"
			: "=A" (res)
			: "m" (*ptr)
		);
	return res;
}

ebx/ecx being read only, and their value can be random, they are not even
mentioned in asm constraints, so gcc is allowed to keep useful values
in these registers.

So the following (stupid) example

        for (i = 0; i < 10000000; i++) {
                res += atomic64_read(&myvar);
        }

gives :
        xorl    %esi, %esi
.L2:
        mov     %ebx, %eax
        mov     %ecx, %edx
        lock;cmpxchg8b myvar
        addl    %eax, %ecx
        adcl    %edx, %ebx
        addl    $1, %esi
        cmpl    $10000000, %esi
        jne     .L2

Ok, agreed. We dont want to inline it - cmpxchg8b is way too fat - 
but your code above is a valid optimization for the out-of-line 
variant as well. So i have applied it as such, will post the whole 
atomic64_t series soon, after some testing.

I just changed "=A" constraint to "+A" or gcc could use %edx/%eax in "ptr"
address computation. I discovered this after crashing my box :)

Good point. I've done a simple:

u64 atomic64_read(atomic64_t *ptr)
{
        return cmpxchg8b(ptr, 0, 0);
}

-1 is better i guess, as that way we can avoid dirtying the 
cacheline. Zero is way too common for atomics.
