Subject: [PATCH v2 03/31] net: Introduce net_sem for protection of
pernet_list
Curently mutex is used to protect pernet operations list. It makes
cleanup_net() to execute ->exit methods of the same operations set,
which was used on the time of ->init, even after net namespace is
unlinked from net_namespace_list.
But the problem is it's need to synchronize_rcu() after net is removed
from net_namespace_list():
Destroy net_ns:
cleanup_net()
mutex_lock(&net_mutex)
list_del_rcu(&net->list)
synchronize_rcu() <--- Sleep there for ages
list_for_each_entry_reverse(ops, &pernet_list, list)
ops_exit_list(ops, &net_exit_list)
list_for_each_entry_reverse(ops, &pernet_list, list)
ops_free_list(ops, &net_exit_list)
mutex_unlock(&net_mutex)
This primitive is not fast, especially on the systems with many processors
and/or when preemptible RCU is enabled in config. So, all the time, while
cleanup_net() is waiting for RCU grace period, creation of new net namespaces
is not possible, the tasks, who makes it, are sleeping on the same mutex:
Create net_ns:
copy_net_ns()
mutex_lock_killable(&net_mutex) <--- Sleep there for ages
I observed 20-30 seconds hangs of "unshare -n" on ordinary 8-cpu laptop
with preemptible RCU enabled.
The solution is to convert net_mutex to the rw_semaphore and add small locks
to really small number of pernet_operations, what really need them. Then,
pernet_operations::init/::exit methods, modifying the net-related data,
will require down_read() locking only, while down_write() will be used
for changing pernet_list.
This gives signify performance increase, after all patch set is applied,
like you may see here:
%for i in {1..10000}; do unshare -n bash -c exit; done
*before*
real 1m40,377s
user 0m9,672s
sys 0m19,928s
*after*
real 0m17,007s
user 0m5,311s
sys 0m11,779
(5.8 times faster)
This patch starts replacing net_mutex to net_sem. It adds rw_semaphore,
describes the variables it protects, and makes to use where appropriate.
net_mutex is still present, and next patches will kick it out step-by-step.
