Yes, the main different I think is that the sys_membarrier
infrastructure focuses on IPI-ing only the current process running
threads.

8 threads: one doing sys_membarrier() in a loop, 7 others waiting on a
variable.

Probably not. AFAIK. "top" does not really consider interrupts into its
accounting. So, better take this top output with a grain of salt or two.

Absolutely. And it's of no use to add a check within the IPI handler to
verify if it was indeed needed, because all we would skip is a simple
smp_mb(), which is relatively minor in terms of overhead compared to the
IPI itself.

No. See

 +   if (unlikely(thread_group_empty(current)))
 +           return 0;

in the caller below. The if you present here simply ensures that we
don't do a superfluous function call on the current thread. It's
probably not really worth it for a slow path though.

Hrm, that's a bit odd. I agree that UP systems could simply return
-ENOSYS for sys_membarrier, but then I wonder how userland could
distinguish between:

- an old kernel not supporting sys_membarrier()
  -> in this case we need to use the smp_mb() fallback on the read-side
     and in synchronize_rcu().
- a recent kernel supporting sys_membarrier(), CONFIG_SMP
  -> can use the barrier() on read-side, call sys_membarrier upon
     update.
- a recent kernel supporting sys_membarrier, !CONFIG_SMP
  -> calls to sys_membarrier() are not required, nor is barrier().

Or maybe we just postpone the userland smp_mb() question to another
thread. This will eventually need to be addressed anyway. Maybe with a
vgetmaxcpu() vsyscall.

OK. Anyway I think I'll go the the shorter implementation using the
mm_cpumask, and add an additionnal ->mm check with spinlocks.

Yep.

Thanks,
