Subject: [PATCH 1/2 v3] rseq/membarrier: add MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_RSEQ
This patchset is based on Google-internal RSEQ
work done by Paul Turner and Andrew Hunter.
When working with per-CPU RSEQ-based memory allocations,
it is sometimes important to make sure that a global
memory location is no longer accessed from RSEQ critical
sections. For example, there can be two per-CPU lists,
one is "active" and accessed per-CPU, while another one
is inactive and worked on asynchronously "off CPU" (e.g.
garbage collection is performed). Then at some point
the two lists are swapped, and a fast RCU-like mechanism
is required to make sure that the previously active
list is no longer accessed.
This patch introduces such a mechanism: in short,
membarrier() syscall issues an IPI to a CPU, restarting
a potentially active RSEQ critical section on the CPU.
v1->v2:
- removed the ability to IPI all CPUs in a single sycall;
- use task->mm rather than task->group_leader to identify
tasks belonging to the same process.
v2->v3:
- re-added the ability to IPI all CPUs in a single syscall;
- integrated with membarrier_private_expedited() to
make sure only CPUs running tasks with the same mm as
the current task are interrupted;
- also added MEMBARRIER_CMD_REGISTER_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_RSEQ;
- flags in membarrier_private_expedited are never actually
bit flags but always distinct values (i.e. never two flags
are combined), so I modified bit testing to full equation
comparison for simplicity (otherwise the code needs to
work when several bits are set, for example).
The second patch in the patchset adds a selftest
of this feature.
