[PATCH for 4.16 v7 02/11] powerpc: membarrier: Skip memory barrier in switch_mm()

[Mathieu Desnoyers]

Allow PowerPC to skip the full memory barrier in switch_mm(), and
only issue the barrier when scheduling into a task belonging to a
process that has registered to use expedited private.

Threads targeting the same VM but which belong to different thread
groups is a tricky case. It has a few consequences:

It turns out that we cannot rely on get_nr_threads(p) to count the
number of threads using a VM. We can use
(atomic_read(&mm->mm_users) == 1 && get_nr_threads(p) == 1)
instead to skip the synchronize_sched() for cases where the VM only has
a single user, and that user only has a single thread.

It also turns out that we cannot use for_each_thread() to set
thread flags in all threads using a VM, as it only iterates on the
thread group.

Therefore, test the membarrier state variable directly rather than
relying on thread flags. This means
membarrier_register_private_expedited() needs to set the
MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED flag, issue synchronize_sched(), and
only then set MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_READY which allows
private expedited membarrier commands to succeed.
membarrier_arch_switch_mm() now tests for the
MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED flag.

Changes since v1:
- Use test_ti_thread_flag(next, ...) instead of test_thread_flag() in
  powerpc membarrier_arch_sched_in(), given that we want to specifically
  check the next thread state.
- Add missing ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_HOOKS in Kconfig.
- Use task_thread_info() to pass thread_info from task to
  *_ti_thread_flag().

Changes since v2:
- Move membarrier_arch_sched_in() call to finish_task_switch().
- Check for NULL t->mm in membarrier_arch_fork().
- Use membarrier_sched_in() in generic code, which invokes the
  arch-specific membarrier_arch_sched_in(). This fixes allnoconfig
  build on PowerPC.
- Move asm/membarrier.h include under CONFIG_MEMBARRIER, fixing
  allnoconfig build on PowerPC.
- Build and runtime tested on PowerPC.

Changes since v3:
- Simply rely on copy_mm() to copy the membarrier_private_expedited mm
  field on fork.
- powerpc: test thread flag instead of reading
  membarrier_private_expedited in membarrier_arch_fork().
- powerpc: skip memory barrier in membarrier_arch_sched_in() if coming
  from kernel thread, since mmdrop() implies a full barrier.
- Set membarrier_private_expedited to 1 only after arch registration
  code, thus eliminating a race where concurrent commands could succeed
  when they should fail if issued concurrently with process
  registration.
- Use READ_ONCE() for membarrier_private_expedited field access in
  membarrier_private_expedited. Matches WRITE_ONCE() performed in
  process registration.

Changes since v4:
- Move powerpc hook from sched_in() to switch_mm(), based on feedback
  from Nicholas Piggin.

Changes since v5:
- Rebase on v4.14-rc6.
- Fold "Fix: membarrier: Handle CLONE_VM + !CLONE_THREAD correctly on
  powerpc (v2)"

Changes since v6:
- Rename MEMBARRIER_STATE_SWITCH_MM to MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED.

[PATCH for 4.16 v7 02/11] powerpc: membarrier: Skip memory barrier in switch_mm()

[Mathieu Desnoyers]

Allow PowerPC to skip the full memory barrier in switch_mm(), and
only issue the barrier when scheduling into a task belonging to a
process that has registered to use expedited private.

Threads targeting the same VM but which belong to different thread
groups is a tricky case. It has a few consequences:

It turns out that we cannot rely on get_nr_threads(p) to count the
number of threads using a VM. We can use
(atomic_read(&mm->mm_users) == 1 && get_nr_threads(p) == 1)
instead to skip the synchronize_sched() for cases where the VM only has
a single user, and that user only has a single thread.

It also turns out that we cannot use for_each_thread() to set
thread flags in all threads using a VM, as it only iterates on the
thread group.

Therefore, test the membarrier state variable directly rather than
relying on thread flags. This means
membarrier_register_private_expedited() needs to set the
MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED flag, issue synchronize_sched(), and
only then set MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_READY which allows
private expedited membarrier commands to succeed.
membarrier_arch_switch_mm() now tests for the
MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED flag.

Changes since v1:
- Use test_ti_thread_flag(next, ...) instead of test_thread_flag() in
  powerpc membarrier_arch_sched_in(), given that we want to specifically
  check the next thread state.
- Add missing ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_HOOKS in Kconfig.
- Use task_thread_info() to pass thread_info from task to
  *_ti_thread_flag().

Changes since v2:
- Move membarrier_arch_sched_in() call to finish_task_switch().
- Check for NULL t->mm in membarrier_arch_fork().
- Use membarrier_sched_in() in generic code, which invokes the
  arch-specific membarrier_arch_sched_in(). This fixes allnoconfig
  build on PowerPC.
- Move asm/membarrier.h include under CONFIG_MEMBARRIER, fixing
  allnoconfig build on PowerPC.
- Build and runtime tested on PowerPC.

Changes since v3:
- Simply rely on copy_mm() to copy the membarrier_private_expedited mm
  field on fork.
- powerpc: test thread flag instead of reading
  membarrier_private_expedited in membarrier_arch_fork().
- powerpc: skip memory barrier in membarrier_arch_sched_in() if coming
  from kernel thread, since mmdrop() implies a full barrier.
- Set membarrier_private_expedited to 1 only after arch registration
  code, thus eliminating a race where concurrent commands could succeed
  when they should fail if issued concurrently with process
  registration.
- Use READ_ONCE() for membarrier_private_expedited field access in
  membarrier_private_expedited. Matches WRITE_ONCE() performed in
  process registration.

Changes since v4:
- Move powerpc hook from sched_in() to switch_mm(), based on feedback
  from Nicholas Piggin.

Changes since v5:
- Rebase on v4.14-rc6.
- Fold "Fix: membarrier: Handle CLONE_VM + !CLONE_THREAD correctly on
  powerpc (v2)"

Changes since v6:
- Rename MEMBARRIER_STATE_SWITCH_MM to MEMBARRIER_STATE_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED.

Yeah, so I have renamed this to ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_CALLBACKS, and propagated it 
through the rest of the patches. "Callback" is the canonical name, and I also 
cringe every time I see 'hook'.

Please let me know if there are any big objections against this minor cleanup.

Looking at switch_mm_irqs_off(), I found it more complex than expected and found that this patch is 
the reason for that complexity.

Before the patch (ie in kernel 4.14), we have:

00000000 <switch_mm_irqs_off>:
    0:	81 24 01 c8 	lwz     r9,456(r4)

Especially, the comparison of 'prev' to 0 is pointless as both cases end up with just branching to 
'switch_mmu_context'

I don't understand all that complexity to just replace a simple 'smp_mb__after_unlock_lock()'.

#define smp_mb__after_unlock_lock()	smp_mb()
#define smp_mb()	barrier()
# define barrier() __asm__ __volatile__("": : :"memory")


Am I missing some subtility ?

On powerpc CONFIG_SMP, smp_mb() is actually defined as:

#define smp_mb()        __smp_mb()
#define __smp_mb()      mb()
#define mb()   __asm__ __volatile__ ("sync" : : : "memory")

So the original motivation here was to skip a "sync" instruction whenever
switching between threads which are part of the same process. But based on
recent discussions, I suspect my implementation may be inaccurately doing
so though.

Mathieu

I see.

Then, if you think a 'sync' is a concern, shouldn't we try and remove the forest of 'sync' in the 
I/O accessors ?

I can't really understand why we need all those 'sync' and 'isync' and 'twi' around the accesses 
whereas I/O memory is usually mapped as 'Guarded' so memory access ordering is already garantied.

I'm sure we'll save a lot with that.

The point of the twi in the I/O accessors was to make things easier to
debug if the accesses fail: for the twi insn to complete the load will
have to have completed as well.  On a correctly working system you never
should need this (until something fails ;-) )

Without the twi you might need to enforce ordering in some cases still.
The twi is a very heavy hammer, but some of that that gives us is no
doubt actually needed.

Well, I've always been quite perplex about that. According to the documentation of the 8xx, if a bus 
error or something happens on an I/O access, the exception will be accounted on the instruction 
which does the access. But based on the following function, I understand that some version of 
powerpc do generate the trap on the instruction which was being executed at the time the I/O access 
failed, not the instruction that does the access itself ?

/*
  * I/O accesses can cause machine checks on powermacs.
  * Check if the NIP corresponds to the address of a sync
  * instruction for which there is an entry in the exception
  * table.
  *  -- paulus.
  */
static inline int check_io_access(struct pt_regs *regs)
{
#ifdef CONFIG_PPC32
	unsigned long msr = regs->msr;
	const struct exception_table_entry *entry;
	unsigned int *nip = (unsigned int *)regs->nip;

	if (((msr & 0xffff0000) == 0 || (msr & (0x80000 | 0x40000)))
	    && (entry = search_exception_tables(regs->nip)) != NULL) {
		/*
		 * Check that it's a sync instruction, or somewhere
		 * in the twi; isync; nop sequence that inb/inw/inl uses.
		 * As the address is in the exception table
		 * we should be able to read the instr there.
		 * For the debug message, we look at the preceding
		 * load or store.
		 */
		if (*nip == PPC_INST_NOP)
			nip -= 2;
		else if (*nip == PPC_INST_ISYNC)
			--nip;
		if (*nip == PPC_INST_SYNC || (*nip >> 26) == OP_TRAP) {
			unsigned int rb;

			--nip;
			rb = (*nip >> 11) & 0x1f;
			printk(KERN_DEBUG "%s bad port %lx at %p\n",
			       (*nip & 0x100)? "OUT to": "IN from",
			       regs->gpr[rb] - _IO_BASE, nip);
			regs->msr |= MSR_RI;
			regs->nip = extable_fixup(entry);
			return 1;
		}
	}
#endif /* CONFIG_PPC32 */
	return 0;
}

Am I right ?

It is not only the twi which bother's me in the I/O accessors but also the sync/isync and stuff.

A write typically is

	sync
	stw

A read is

	sync
	lwz
	twi
	isync

Taking into account that HW ordering is garanteed by the fact that __iomem is guarded, isn't the 
'memory' clobber enough as a barrier ?

Trap instructions are never speculated (this may not be architectural,
but it is true on all existing implementations).  So the instructions
after the twi;isync will not execute until the twi itself has finished,
and that cannot happen before the preceding load has (because it uses
the loaded register).

Now, some I/O accesses can cause machine checks.  Machine checks are
asynchronous and can be hard to correlate to specific load insns, and
worse, you may not even have the address loaded from in architected
registers anymore.  Since I/O accesses often take *long*, tens or even
hundreds of cycles is not unusual, this can be a challenge.

To recover from machine checks you typically need special debug hardware
and/or software.  For the Apple machines those are not so easy to come
by.  This "twi after loads" thing made it pretty easy to figure out
where your code was going wrong.

And it isn't as slow as it may sound: typically you really need to have
the result of the load before you can go on do useful work anyway, and
loads from I/O are slow non-posted things.

I suspect this is from before the twi thing was added?

Yes.  But machine checks are asynchronous :-)

> isn't the 'memory' clobber enough as a barrier ?

A "memory" clobber isn't a barrier of any kind.  "Compiler barriers" do
not exist.

The only thing such a clobber does is it tells the compiler that this
inline asm can access some memory, and we do not say at what address.
So the compiler cannot reorder this asm with other memory accesses.  It
has no other effects, no magical effects, and it is not comparable to
actual barrier instructions (that actually tell the hardware that some
certain ordering is required).

"Compiler barrier" is a harmful misnomer: language shapes thoughts,
using misleading names causes misguided thoughts.

Anyway :-)

The isync is simply to make sure the code after it does not start before
the code before it has completed.  The sync before I am not sure.

[PATCH for 4.16 v2 06/11] Introduce sync_core_before_usermode

[Mathieu Desnoyers]

Introduce an architecture function that ensures the current CPU
issues a core serializing instruction before returning to usermode.

This is needed for the membarrier "sync_core" command.

Architectures defining the sync_core_before_usermode() static inline
need to select ARCH_HAS_SYNC_CORE_BEFORE_USERMODE.

[PATCH for 4.16 v4 09/11] membarrier: x86: Provide core serializing command

[Mathieu Desnoyers]

There are two places where core serialization is needed by membarrier:

1) When returning from the membarrier IPI,
2) After scheduler updates curr to a thread with a different mm, before
   going back to user-space, since the curr->mm is used by membarrier to
   check whether it needs to send an IPI to that CPU.

x86-32 uses iret as return from interrupt, and both iret and sysexit to go
back to user-space. The iret instruction is core serializing, but not
sysexit.

x86-64 uses iret as return from interrupt, which takes care of the IPI.
However, it can return to user-space through either sysretl (compat
code), sysretq, or iret. Given that sysret{l,q} is not core serializing,
we rely instead on write_cr3() performed by switch_mm() to provide core
serialization after changing the current mm, and deal with the special
case of kthread -> uthread (temporarily keeping current mm into
active_mm) by adding a sync_core() in that specific case.

Use the new sync_core_before_usermode() to guarantee this.

[PATCH for 4.16 v3 08/11] membarrier: Provide core serializing command

[Mathieu Desnoyers]

Provide core serializing membarrier command to support memory reclaim
by JIT.

Each architecture needs to explicitly opt into that support by
documenting in their architecture code how they provide the core
serializing instructions required when returning from the membarrier
IPI, and after the scheduler has updated the curr->mm pointer (before
going back to user-space). They should then select
ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_SYNC_CORE to enable support for that command on
their architecture.

Architectures selecting this feature need to either document that
they issue core serializing instructions when returning to user-space,
or implement their architecture-specific sync_core_before_usermode().

[PATCH for 4.16 v3 08/11] membarrier: Provide core serializing command

[Mathieu Desnoyers]

Provide core serializing membarrier command to support memory reclaim
by JIT.

Each architecture needs to explicitly opt into that support by
documenting in their architecture code how they provide the core
serializing instructions required when returning from the membarrier
IPI, and after the scheduler has updated the curr->mm pointer (before
going back to user-space). They should then select
ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_SYNC_CORE to enable support for that command on
their architecture.

Architectures selecting this feature need to either document that
they issue core serializing instructions when returning to user-space,
or implement their architecture-specific sync_core_before_usermode().
