Subject: Re: [PATCH v8 4/9] perf mutex: Add DO_ONCE() for one-time initialization
Date: Fri, 02 Oct 2026 10:28:42 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261002102842.7FA911F000FF@smtp.kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261002102110.27587-5-acme@kernel.org>
> From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>
>
> For lazy init that more than one thread can race into, without
> pthread_once() so that it stays within perf's locking primitives and
> clang's -Wthread-safety keeps an eye on the mutexes involved.
>
> Mirrors the kernel's include/linux/once.h DO_ONCE(), dropping its
> static key fast path, unnecessary at these cold init paths: a per call
> site static bool plus a statically initialized mutex, double checked.
> As there, code reachable from more than one call site must go through
> a common helper.
>
> The lockless fast path reads ___done with
> __atomic_load_n(..., __ATOMIC_ACQUIRE), paired with the
> __atomic_store_n(..., __ATOMIC_RELEASE) store after fn(), so that its
> side effects are visible to threads that take the fast path; the
> __atomic builtins over the smp_load_acquire()/smp_store_release()
> variants because ThreadSanitizer understands the builtins, avoiding
> reports on ___done and on what fn() initialized.
