Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/3] getcpu_cache system call: cache CPU number of running thread
Expose a new system call allowing threads to register userspace memory
areas where to store the CPU number on which the calling thread is
running. Scheduler migration sets the TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME flag on the
current thread. Upon return to user-space, a notify-resume handler
updates the current CPU value within each registered user-space memory
area. User-space can then read the current CPU number directly from
memory.
This getcpu cache is an improvement over current mechanisms available to
read the current CPU number, which has the following benefits:
- 44x speedup on ARM vs system call through glibc,
- 14x speedup on x86 compared to calling glibc, which calls vdso
executing a "lsl" instruction,
- 11x speedup on x86 compared to inlined "lsl" instruction,
- Unlike vdso approaches, this cached value can be read from an inline
assembly, which makes it a useful building block for restartable
sequences.
- The getcpu cache approach is portable (e.g. ARM), which is not the
case for the lsl-based x86 vdso.
On x86, yet another possible approach would be to use the gs segment
selector to point to user-space per-cpu data. This approach performs
similarly to the getcpu cache, but it has two disadvantages: it is
not portable, and it is incompatible with existing applications already
using the gs segment selector for other purposes.
This approach is inspired by Paul Turner and Andrew Hunter's work
on percpu atomics, which lets the kernel handle restart of critical
sections:

GETCPU_CACHE(2) Linux Programmer's Manual GETCPU_CACHE(2)
NAME
getcpu_cache - cache CPU number on which the calling thread
is running
SYNOPSIS
#include <linux/getcpu_cache.h>
int getcpu_cache(int cmd, int32_t * cpu_cache, int flags);
DESCRIPTION
The getcpu_cache() helps speeding up reading the current CPU
number by ensuring that memory locations registered by user-
space threads are always updated with the CPU number on which
the thread is running when reading those memory locations.
The cpu_cache argument is a pointer to a int32_t.
The cmd argument is one of the following:
GETCPU_CACHE_CMD_REGISTER
Register the cpu_cache given as parameter for the cur‐
rent thread.
GETCPU_CACHE_CMD_UNREGISTER
Unregister the cpu_cache given as parameter from the
current thread.
The flags argument is currently unused and must be specified
as 0.
Typically, a library or application will put the cpu_cache in
a thread-local storage variable, or other memory areas
belonging to each thread. It is recommended to perform a
volatile read of the cpu_cache to prevent the compiler from
doing load tearing. An alternative approach is to read the
cpu_cache from inline assembly in a single instruction.
Each thread is responsible for registering its own cpu_cache.
It is possible to register many cpu_cache for a given thread,
for instance from different libraries.
Unregistration of associated cpu_cache are implicitly per‐
formed when a thread or process exit.
RETURN VALUE
A return value of 0 indicates success. On error, -1 is
returned, and errno is set appropriately.
ERRORS
EINVAL cmd is unsupported, cpu_cache is invalid, or flags is
non-zero.
ENOSYS The getcpu_cache() system call is not implemented by
this kernel.
EBUSY cmd is GETCPU_CACHE_CMD_REGISTER and cpu_cache is
already registered for this thread.
EFAULT cmd is GETCPU_CACHE_CMD_REGISTER and the memory loca‐
tion specified by cpu_cache is a bad address.
ENOENT cmd is GETCPU_CACHE_CMD_UNREGISTER and cpu_cache can‐
not be found for this thread.
ENOMEM cmd is GETCPU_CACHE_CMD_UNREGISTER and the kernel has
run out of memory.
VERSIONS
The getcpu_cache() system call was added in Linux 4.X (TODO).
CONFORMING TO
getcpu_cache() is Linux-specific.
EXAMPLE
The following code uses the getcpu_cache() system call to
keep a thread local storage variable up to date with the cur‐
rent CPU number. For example simplicity, it is done in
main(), but multithreaded programs would need to invoke
getcpu_cache() from each program thread.
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include <sys/syscall.h>
#include <linux/getcpu_cache.h>
static inline int
getcpu_cache(int cmd, volatile int32_t *cpu_cache, int flags)
{
return syscall(__NR_getcpu_cache, cmd, cpu_cache, flags);
}
static __thread volatile int32_t getcpu_cache_tls;
int
main(int argc, char **argv)
{
if (getcpu_cache(GETCPU_CACHE_CMD_REGISTER,
&getcpu_cache_tls, 0) < 0) {
perror("getcpu_cache register");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
printf("Current CPU number: %d\n", getcpu_cache_tls);
if (getcpu_cache(GETCPU_CACHE_CMD_UNREGISTER,
&getcpu_cache_tls, 0) < 0) {
perror("getcpu_cache unregister");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
}
Linux 2016-01-01 GETCPU_CACHE(2)
Rationale for the getcpu_cache system call rather than the thread-local
ABI system call proposed earlier:
Rather than doing a "generic" thread-local ABI, specialize this system
call for a cpu number cache only. Anyway, the thread-local ABI approach
would have required that we introduce "feature" flags, which would have
ended up reimplementing multiplexing of features on top of a system
call. It seems better to introduce one system call per feature instead.
