2021-07-23mm: mmap_lock: fix disabling preemption directlyMuchun Song
Commit 832b50725373 ("mm: mmap_lock: use local locks instead of disabling preemption") fixed a bug by using local locks. But commit d01079f3d0c0 ("mm/mmap_lock: remove dead code for !CONFIG_TRACING configurations") changed those lines back to the original version. I guess it was introduced by fixing conflicts.

2021-06-29mm: mmap_lock: use local locks instead of disabling preemptionNicolas Saenz Julienne
mmap_lock will explicitly disable/enable preemption upon manipulating its local CPU variables. This is to be expected, but in this case, it doesn't play well with PREEMPT_RT. The preemption disabled code section also takes a spin-lock. Spin-locks in RT systems will try to schedule, which is exactly what we're trying to avoid. To mitigate this, convert the explicit preemption handling to local_locks. Which are RT aware, and will disable migration instead of preemption when PREEMPT_RT=y. The faulty call trace looks like the following: __mmap_lock_do_trace_*() preempt_disable() get_mm_memcg_path() cgroup_path() kernfs_path_from_node() spin_lock_irqsave() /* Scheduling while atomic! */ Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20210604163506.2103900-1-nsaenzju@redhat.com Fixes: 2b5067a8143e3 ("mm: mmap_lock: add tracepoints around lock acquisition ") Signed-off-by: Nicolas Saenz Julienne <nsaenzju@redhat.com> Tested-by: Axel Rasmussen <axelrasmussen@google.com> Reviewed-by: Axel Rasmussen <axelrasmussen@google.com> Cc: Vlastimil Babka <vbabka@suse.cz> Cc: Steven Rostedt <rostedt@goodmis.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2020-12-15mm: mmap_lock: add tracepoints around lock acquisitionAxel Rasmussen
The goal of these tracepoints is to be able to debug lock contention issues. This lock is acquired on most (all?) mmap / munmap / page fault operations, so a multi-threaded process which does a lot of these can experience significant contention. We trace just before we start acquisition, when the acquisition returns (whether it succeeded or not), and when the lock is released (or downgraded). The events are broken out by lock type (read / write). The events are also broken out by memcg path. For container-based workloads, users often think of several processes in a memcg as a single logical "task", so collecting statistics at this level is useful. The end goal is to get latency information. This isn't directly included in the trace events. Instead, users are expected to compute the time between "start locking" and "acquire returned", using e.g. synthetic events or BPF. The benefit we get from this is simpler code. Because we use tracepoint_enabled() to decide whether or not to trace, this patch has effectively no overhead unless tracepoints are enabled at runtime. If tracepoints are enabled, there is a performance impact, but how much depends on exactly what e.g. the BPF program does.
