Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: use cmpxchg() in lock_sock_nested()
Date: Wed, 25 Feb 2026 03:32:16 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260225033216.601205-1-edumazet@google.com> (raw)

Add a fast path in lock_sock_nested(), to avoid acquiring
the socket spinlock only to set @owned to one:

        spin_lock_bh(&sk->sk_lock.slock);
        if (unlikely(sock_owned_by_user_nocheck(sk)))
                __lock_sock(sk);
        sk->sk_lock.owned = 1;
        spin_unlock_bh(&sk->sk_lock.slock);

On x86_64 compiler generates something quite efficient:

ffffffff81e96100 <lock_sock_nested>:
ffffffff81e96100:       f3 0f 1e fa             endbr64
ffffffff81e96104:       0f 1f 44 00 00          nopl   0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
ffffffff81e96109:       b9 01 00 00 00          mov    $0x1,%ecx
ffffffff81e9610e:       31 c0                   xor    %eax,%eax
ffffffff81e96110:       f0 48 0f b1 8f 48 01    lock cmpxchg %rcx,0x148(%rdi)
ffffffff81e96117:       00 00
ffffffff81e96119:       48 85 c0                test   %rax,%rax
ffffffff81e9611c:       74 33                   je     ffffffff81e96151 <lock_sock_nested+0x51>
...// slow path
ffffffff81e96151:       2e e9 19 c4 33 00       cs jmp ffffffff821d2570 <__pi___x86_return_thunk>
