mm: relocate 'write_protect_seq' in struct mm_struct

2021-06-12T20:28:50+00:00

0day robot reported a 9.2% regression for will-it-scale mmap1 test case[1], caused by commit 57efa1fe5957 ("mm/gup: prevent gup_fast from racing with COW during fork"). Further debug shows the regression is due to that commit changes the offset of hot fields 'mmap_lock' inside structure 'mm_struct', thus some cache alignment changes. From the perf data, the contention for 'mmap_lock' is very severe and takes around 95% cpu cycles, and it is a rw_semaphore struct rw_semaphore { atomic_long_t count; /* 8 bytes */ atomic_long_t owner; /* 8 bytes */ struct optimistic_spin_queue osq; /* spinner MCS lock */ ... Before commit 57efa1fe5957 adds the 'write_protect_seq', it happens to have a very optimal cache alignment layout, as Linus explained: "and before the addition of the 'write_protect_seq' field, the mmap_sem was at offset 120 in 'struct mm_struct'. Which meant that count and owner were in two different cachelines, and then when you have contention and spend time in rwsem_down_write_slowpath(), this is probably *exactly* the kind of layout you want. Because first the rwsem_write_trylock() will do a cmpxchg on the first cacheline (for the optimistic fast-path), and then in the case of contention, rwsem_down_write_slowpath() will just access the second cacheline. Which is probably just optimal for a load that spends a lot of time contended - new waiters touch that first cacheline, and then they queue themselves up on the second cacheline." After the commit, the rw_semaphore is at offset 128, which means the 'count' and 'owner' fields are now in the same cacheline, and causes more cache bouncing. Currently there are 3 "#ifdef CONFIG_XXX" before 'mmap_lock' which will affect its offset: CONFIG_MMU CONFIG_MEMBARRIER CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_COMPAT_MMAP_BASES The layout above is on 64 bits system with 0day's default kernel config (similar to RHEL-8.3's config), in which all these 3 options are 'y'. And the layout can vary with different kernel configs. Relayouting a structure is usually a double-edged sword, as sometimes it can helps one case, but hurt other cases. For this case, one solution is, as the newly added 'write_protect_seq' is a 4 bytes long seqcount_t (when CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=n), placing it into an existing 4 bytes hole in 'mm_struct' will not change other fields' alignment, while restoring the regression.

Pull USB fixes from Greg KH: "Here are a number of tiny USB fixes for 5.13-rc6. There are more than I would normally like, but there's been a bunch of people banging on the gadget and dwc3 and typec code recently for I think an Android release, which has resulted in a number of small fixes. It's nice to see companies send fixes upstream for this type of work, a notable change from years ago. Anyway, fixes in here are: - usb-serial device id updates - usb-serial cp210x driver fixes for broken firmware versions - typec fixes for crazy charging devices and other reported problems - dwc3 fixes for reported problems found - gadget fixes for reported problems - tiny xhci fixes - other small fixes for reported issues. - revert of a problem fix found by linux-next testing All of these have passed 0-day and linux-next testing with no reported problems (the revert for the found linux-next build problem included)" * tag 'usb-5.13-rc6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb: (44 commits) Revert "usb: gadget: fsl: Re-enable driver for ARM SoCs" usb: typec: mux: Fix copy-paste mistake in typec_mux_match usb: typec: ucsi: Clear PPM capability data in ucsi_init() error path usb: gadget: fsl: Re-enable driver for ARM SoCs usb: typec: wcove: Use LE to CPU conversion when accessing msg->header USB: serial: cp210x: fix CP2102N-A01 modem control USB: serial: cp210x: fix alternate function for CP2102N QFN20 usb: misc: brcmstb-usb-pinmap: check return value after calling platform_get_resource() usb: dwc3: ep0: fix NULL pointer exception usb: gadget: eem: fix wrong eem header operation usb: typec: intel_pmc_mux: Put ACPI device using acpi_dev_put() usb: typec: intel_pmc_mux: Add missed error check for devm_ioremap_resource() usb: typec: intel_pmc_mux: Put fwnode in error case during ->probe() usb: typec: tcpm: Do not finish VDM AMS for retrying Responses usb: fix various gadget panics on 10gbps cabling usb: fix various gadgets null ptr deref on 10gbps cabling. usb: pci-quirks: disable D3cold on xhci suspend for s2idle on AMD Renoir usb: f_ncm: only first packet of aggregate needs to start timer USB: f_ncm: ncm_bitrate (speed) is unsigned MAINTAINERS: usb: add entry for isp1760 ...
