Merge branch 'rwsem-optimizations'
Merge rwsem optimizations from Michel Lespinasse: "These patches extend Alex Shi's work (which added write lock stealing on the rwsem slow path) in order to provide rwsem write lock stealing on the fast path (that is, without taking the rwsem's wait_lock). I have unfortunately been unable to push this through -next before due to Ingo Molnar / David Howells / Peter Zijlstra being busy with other things. However, this has gotten some attention from Rik van Riel and Davidlohr Bueso who both commented that they felt this was ready for v3.10, and Ingo Molnar has said that he was OK with me pushing directly to you. So, here goes :) Davidlohr got the following test results from pgbench running on a quad-core laptop: | db_size | clients | tps-vanilla | tps-rwsem | +---------+----------+----------------+--------------+ | 160 MB | 1 | 5803 | 6906 | + 19.0% | 160 MB | 2 | 13092 | 15931 | | 160 MB | 4 | 29412 | 33021 | | 160 MB | 8 | 32448 | 34626 | | 160 MB | 16 | 32758 | 33098 | | 160 MB | 20 | 26940 | 31343 | + 16.3% | 160 MB | 30 | 25147 | 28961 | | 160 MB | 40 | 25484 | 26902 | | 160 MB | 50 | 24528 | 25760 | ------------------------------------------------------ | 1.6 GB | 1 | 5733 | 7729 | + 34.8% | 1.6 GB | 2 | 9411 | 19009 | + 101.9% | 1.6 GB | 4 | 31818 | 33185 | | 1.6 GB | 8 | 33700 | 34550 | | 1.6 GB | 16 | 32751 | 33079 | | 1.6 GB | 20 | 30919 | 31494 | | 1.6 GB | 30 | 28540 | 28535 | | 1.6 GB | 40 | 26380 | 27054 | | 1.6 GB | 50 | 25241 | 25591 | ------------------------------------------------------ | 7.6 GB | 1 | 5779 | 6224 | | 7.6 GB | 2 | 10897 | 13611 | + 24.9% | 7.6 GB | 4 | 32683 | 33108 | | 7.6 GB | 8 | 33968 | 34712 | | 7.6 GB | 16 | 32287 | 32895 | | 7.6 GB | 20 | 27770 | 31689 | + 14.1% | 7.6 GB | 30 | 26739 | 29003 | | 7.6 GB | 40 | 24901 | 26683 | | 7.6 GB | 50 | 17115 | 25925 | + 51.5% ------------------------------------------------------ (Davidlohr also has one additional patch which further improves throughput, though I will ask him to send it directly to you as I have suggested some minor changes)." * emailed patches from Michel Lespinasse <walken@google.com>: rwsem: no need for explicit signed longs x86 rwsem: avoid taking slow path when stealing write lock rwsem: do not block readers at head of queue if other readers are active rwsem: implement support for write lock stealing on the fastpath rwsem: simplify __rwsem_do_wake rwsem: skip initial trylock in rwsem_down_write_failed rwsem: avoid taking wait_lock in rwsem_down_write_failed rwsem: use cmpxchg for trying to steal write lock rwsem: more agressive lock stealing in rwsem_down_write_failed rwsem: simplify rwsem_down_write_failed rwsem: simplify rwsem_down_read_failed rwsem: move rwsem_down_failed_common code into rwsem_down_{read,write}_failed rwsem: shorter spinlocked section in rwsem_down_failed_common() rwsem: make the waiter type an enumeration rather than a bitmask
