The hw_breakpoint subsystem's code has seen little change in over 10
years. In that time, systems with >100s of CPUs have become common,
along with improvements to the perf subsystem: using breakpoints on
thousands of concurrent tasks should be a supported usecase.
The breakpoint constraints accounting algorithm is the major bottleneck
in doing so:
1. toggle_bp_slot() and fetch_bp_busy_slots() are O(#cpus * #tasks):
Both iterate through all CPUs and call task_bp_pinned(), which is
O(#tasks).
2. Everything is serialized on a global mutex, 'nr_bp_mutex'.
The series progresses with the simpler optimizations and finishes with
the more complex optimizations:
1. We first optimize task_bp_pinned() to only take O(1) on average.
2. Rework synchronization to allow concurrency when checking and
updating breakpoint constraints for tasks.
3. Eliminate the O(#cpus) loops in the CPU-independent case.
Along the way, smaller micro-optimizations and cleanups are done as they
seemed obvious when staring at the code (but likely insignificant).
The result is (on a system with 256 CPUs) that we go from:
| $> perf bench -r 30 breakpoint thread -b 4 -p 64 -t 64
[ ^ more aggressive benchmark parameters took too long ]
| # Running 'breakpoint/thread' benchmark:
| # Created/joined 30 threads with 4 breakpoints and 64 parallelism
| Total time: 236.418 [sec]
|
| 123134.794271 usecs/op
| 7880626.833333 usecs/op/cpu
... to the following with all optimizations:
| $> perf bench -r 30 breakpoint thread -b 4 -p 64 -t 64
| # Running 'breakpoint/thread' benchmark:
| # Created/joined 30 threads with 4 breakpoints and 64 parallelism
| Total time: 0.067 [sec]
|
| 35.292187 usecs/op
| 2258.700000 usecs/op/cpu
On the used test system, that's an effective speedup of ~3490x per op.
Which is on par with the theoretical ideal performance through
optimizations in hw_breakpoint.c (constraints accounting disabled), and
only 12% slower than no breakpoints at all.

Internal data structures (cpu_bps, task_bps) of powerpc's hw_breakpoint
implementation have relied on nr_bp_mutex serializing access to them.
Before overhauling synchronization of kernel/events/hw_breakpoint.c,
introduce 2 spinlocks to synchronize cpu_bps and task_bps respectively,
thus avoiding reliance on callers synchronizing powerpc's hw_breakpoint.

Due to being a __weak function, hw_breakpoint_weight() will cause the
compiler to always emit a call to it. This generates unnecessarily bad
code (register spills etc.) for no good reason; in fact it appears in
profiles of `perf bench -r 100 breakpoint thread -b 4 -p 128 -t 512`:
...
0.70% [kernel] [k] hw_breakpoint_weight
...
While a small percentage, no architecture defines its own
hw_breakpoint_weight() nor are there users outside hw_breakpoint.c,
which makes the fact it is currently __weak a poor choice.
Change hw_breakpoint_weight()'s definition to follow a similar protocol
to hw_breakpoint_slots(), such that if <asm/hw_breakpoint.h> defines
hw_breakpoint_weight(), we'll use it instead.
The result is that it is inlined and no longer shows up in profiles.

While optimizing task_bp_pinned()'s runtime complexity to O(1) on
average helps reduce time spent in the critical section, we still suffer
due to serializing everything via 'nr_bp_mutex'. Indeed, a profile shows
that now contention is the biggest issue:
95.93% [kernel] [k] osq_lock
0.70% [kernel] [k] mutex_spin_on_owner
0.22% [kernel] [k] smp_cfm_core_cond
0.18% [kernel] [k] task_bp_pinned
0.18% [kernel] [k] rhashtable_jhash2
0.15% [kernel] [k] queued_spin_lock_slowpath
when running the breakpoint benchmark with (system with 256 CPUs):
| $> perf bench -r 30 breakpoint thread -b 4 -p 64 -t 64
| # Running 'breakpoint/thread' benchmark:
| # Created/joined 30 threads with 4 breakpoints and 64 parallelism
| Total time: 0.207 [sec]
|
| 108.267188 usecs/op
| 6929.100000 usecs/op/cpu
The main concern for synchronizing the breakpoint constraints data is
that a consistent snapshot of the per-CPU and per-task data is observed.
The access pattern is as follows:
1. If the target is a task: the task's pinned breakpoints are counted,
checked for space, and then appended to; only bp_cpuinfo::cpu_pinned
is used to check for conflicts with CPU-only breakpoints;
bp_cpuinfo::tsk_pinned are incremented/decremented, but otherwise
unused.
2. If the target is a CPU: bp_cpuinfo::cpu_pinned are counted, along
with bp_cpuinfo::tsk_pinned; after a successful check, cpu_pinned is
incremented. No per-task breakpoints are checked.
Since rhltable safely synchronizes insertions/deletions, we can allow
concurrency as follows:
1. If the target is a task: independent tasks may update and check the
constraints concurrently, but same-task target calls need to be
serialized; since bp_cpuinfo::tsk_pinned is only updated, but not
checked, these modifications can happen concurrently by switching
tsk_pinned to atomic_t.
2. If the target is a CPU: access to the per-CPU constraints needs to
be serialized with other CPU-target and task-target callers (to
stabilize the bp_cpuinfo::tsk_pinned snapshot).
We can allow the above concurrency by introducing a per-CPU constraints
data reader-writer lock (bp_cpuinfo_sem), and per-task mutexes (reuses
task_struct::perf_event_mutex):
1. If the target is a task: acquires perf_event_mutex, and acquires
bp_cpuinfo_sem as a reader. The choice of percpu-rwsem minimizes
contention in the presence of many read-lock but few write-lock
acquisitions: we assume many orders of magnitude more task target
breakpoints creations/destructions than CPU target breakpoints.
2. If the target is a CPU: acquires bp_cpuinfo_sem as a writer.
With these changes, contention with thousands of tasks is reduced to the
point where waiting on locking no longer dominates the profile:
| $> perf bench -r 30 breakpoint thread -b 4 -p 64 -t 64
| # Running 'breakpoint/thread' benchmark:
| # Created/joined 30 threads with 4 breakpoints and 64 parallelism
| Total time: 0.077 [sec]
|
| 40.201563 usecs/op
| 2572.900000 usecs/op/cpu
21.54% [kernel] [k] task_bp_pinned
20.18% [kernel] [k] rhashtable_jhash2
6.81% [kernel] [k] toggle_bp_slot
5.47% [kernel] [k] queued_spin_lock_slowpath
3.75% [kernel] [k] smp_cfm_core_cond
3.48% [kernel] [k] bcmp
On this particular setup that's a speedup of 2.7x.
We're also getting closer to the theoretical ideal performance through
optimizations in hw_breakpoint.c -- constraints accounting disabled:
| perf bench -r 30 breakpoint thread -b 4 -p 64 -t 64
| # Running 'breakpoint/thread' benchmark:
| # Created/joined 30 threads with 4 breakpoints and 64 parallelism
| Total time: 0.067 [sec]
|
| 35.286458 usecs/op
| 2258.333333 usecs/op/cpu
Which means the current implementation is ~12% slower than the
theoretical ideal.
For reference, performance without any breakpoints:
| $> bench -r 30 breakpoint thread -b 0 -p 64 -t 64
| # Running 'breakpoint/thread' benchmark:
| # Created/joined 30 threads with 0 breakpoints and 64 parallelism
| Total time: 0.060 [sec]
|
| 31.365625 usecs/op
| 2007.400000 usecs/op/cpu
On a system with 256 CPUs, the theoretical ideal is only ~12% slower
than no breakpoints at all; the current implementation is ~28% slower.

2.37.2.672.g94769d06f0-goog
On a machine with 256 CPUs, running the recently added perf breakpoint
benchmark results in:
| $> perf bench -r 30 breakpoint thread -b 4 -p 64 -t 64
| # Running 'breakpoint/thread' benchmark:
| # Created/joined 30 threads with 4 breakpoints and 64 parallelism
| Total time: 236.418 [sec]
|
| 123134.794271 usecs/op
| 7880626.833333 usecs/op/cpu
The benchmark tests inherited breakpoint perf events across many
threads.
Looking at a perf profile, we can see that the majority of the time is
spent in various hw_breakpoint.c functions, which execute within the
'nr_bp_mutex' critical sections which then results in contention on that
mutex as well:
37.27% [kernel] [k] osq_lock
34.92% [kernel] [k] mutex_spin_on_owner
12.15% [kernel] [k] toggle_bp_slot
11.90% [kernel] [k] __reserve_bp_slot
The culprit here is task_bp_pinned(), which has a runtime complexity of
O(#tasks) due to storing all task breakpoints in the same list and
iterating through that list looking for a matching task. Clearly, this
does not scale to thousands of tasks.
Instead, make use of the "rhashtable" variant "rhltable" which stores
multiple items with the same key in a list. This results in average
runtime complexity of O(1) for task_bp_pinned().
With the optimization, the benchmark shows:
| $> perf bench -r 30 breakpoint thread -b 4 -p 64 -t 64
| # Running 'breakpoint/thread' benchmark:
| # Created/joined 30 threads with 4 breakpoints and 64 parallelism
| Total time: 0.208 [sec]
|
| 108.422396 usecs/op
| 6939.033333 usecs/op/cpu
On this particular setup that's a speedup of ~1135x.
While one option would be to make task_struct a breakpoint list node,
this would only further bloat task_struct for infrequently used data.
Furthermore, after all optimizations in this series, there's no evidence
it would result in better performance: later optimizations make the time
spent looking up entries in the hash table negligible (we'll reach the
theoretical ideal performance i.e. no constraints).

2.37.2.672.g94769d06f0-goog
Optimize internal hw_breakpoint state if the architecture's number of
breakpoint slots is constant. This avoids several kmalloc() calls and
potentially unnecessary failures if the allocations fail, as well as
subtly improves code generation and cache locality.
The protocol is that if an architecture defines hw_breakpoint_slots via
the preprocessor, it must be constant and the same for all types.

2.37.2.672.g94769d06f0-goog
Add KUnit test for hw_breakpoint constraints accounting, with various
interesting mixes of breakpoint targets (some care was taken to catch
interesting corner cases via bug-injection).
The test cannot be built as a module because it requires access to
hw_breakpoint_slots(), which is not inlinable or exported on all
architectures.

2.37.2.672.g94769d06f0-goog
Flexible breakpoints have never been implemented, with
bp_cpuinfo::flexible always being 0. Unfortunately, they still occupy 4
bytes in each bp_cpuinfo and bp_busy_slots, as well as computing the max
flexible count in fetch_bp_busy_slots().
This again causes suboptimal code generation, when we always know that
`!!slots.flexible` will be 0.
Just get rid of the flexible "placeholder" and remove all real code
related to it. Make a note in the comment related to the constraints
algorithm but don't remove them from the algorithm, so that if in future
flexible breakpoints need supporting, it should be trivial to revive
them (along with reverting this change).

2.37.2.672.g94769d06f0-goog
Factor out the existing `atomic_t count[N]` into its own struct called
'bp_slots_histogram', to generalize and make its intent clearer in
preparation of reusing elsewhere. The basic idea of bucketing "total
uses of N slots" resembles a histogram, so calling it such seems most
intuitive.
No functional change.

We can still see that a majority of the time is spent hashing task pointers:
...
16.98% [kernel] [k] rhashtable_jhash2
...
Doing the bookkeeping in toggle_bp_slots() is currently O(#cpus),
calling task_bp_pinned() for each CPU, even if task_bp_pinned() is
CPU-independent. The reason for this is to update the per-CPU
'tsk_pinned' histogram.
To optimize the CPU-independent case to O(1), keep a separate
CPU-independent 'tsk_pinned_all' histogram.
The major source of complexity are transitions between "all
CPU-independent task breakpoints" and "mixed CPU-independent and
CPU-dependent task breakpoints". The code comments list all cases that
require handling.
After this optimization:
| $> perf bench -r 100 breakpoint thread -b 4 -p 128 -t 512
| # Running 'breakpoint/thread' benchmark:
| # Created/joined 100 threads with 4 breakpoints and 128 parallelism
| Total time: 1.758 [sec]
|
| 34.336621 usecs/op
| 4395.087500 usecs/op/cpu
38.08% [kernel] [k] queued_spin_lock_slowpath
10.81% [kernel] [k] smp_cfm_core_cond
3.01% [kernel] [k] update_sg_lb_stats
2.58% [kernel] [k] osq_lock
2.57% [kernel] [k] llist_reverse_order
1.45% [kernel] [k] find_next_bit
1.21% [kernel] [k] flush_tlb_func_common
1.01% [kernel] [k] arch_install_hw_breakpoint
Showing that the time spent hashing keys has become insignificant.
With the given benchmark parameters, that's an improvement of 12%
compared with the old O(#cpus) version.
And finally, using the less aggressive parameters from the preceding
changes, we now observe:
| $> perf bench -r 30 breakpoint thread -b 4 -p 64 -t 64
| # Running 'breakpoint/thread' benchmark:
| # Created/joined 30 threads with 4 breakpoints and 64 parallelism
| Total time: 0.067 [sec]
|
| 35.292187 usecs/op
| 2258.700000 usecs/op/cpu
Which is an improvement of 12% compared to without the histogram
optimizations (baseline is 40 usecs/op). This is now on par with the
theoretical ideal (constraints disabled), and only 12% slower than no
breakpoints at all.

We can see that a majority of the time is now spent hashing task
pointers to index into task_bps_ht in task_bp_pinned().
Obtaining the max_bp_pinned_slots() for CPU-independent task targets
currently is O(#cpus), and calls task_bp_pinned() for each CPU, even if
the result of task_bp_pinned() is CPU-independent.
The loop in max_bp_pinned_slots() wants to compute the maximum slots
across all CPUs. If task_bp_pinned() is CPU-independent, we can do so by
obtaining the max slots across all CPUs and adding task_bp_pinned().
To do so in O(1), use a bp_slots_histogram for CPU-pinned slots.
After this optimization:

Suggesting that time spent in task_bp_pinned() has been reduced.
However, we're still hashing too much, which will be addressed in the
subsequent change.

perf/hw_breakpoint: Optimize toggle_bp_slot() for CPU-independent task targets
We can still see that a majority of the time is spent hashing task pointers:
...
16.98% [kernel] [k] rhashtable_jhash2
...
Doing the bookkeeping in toggle_bp_slots() is currently O(#cpus),
calling task_bp_pinned() for each CPU, even if task_bp_pinned() is
CPU-independent. The reason for this is to update the per-CPU
'tsk_pinned' histogram.
To optimize the CPU-independent case to O(1), keep a separate
CPU-independent 'tsk_pinned_all' histogram.
The major source of complexity are transitions between "all
CPU-independent task breakpoints" and "mixed CPU-independent and
CPU-dependent task breakpoints". The code comments list all cases that
require handling.
After this optimization:
| $> perf bench -r 100 breakpoint thread -b 4 -p 128 -t 512
| # Running 'breakpoint/thread' benchmark:
| # Created/joined 100 threads with 4 breakpoints and 128 parallelism
| Total time: 1.758 [sec]
|
| 34.336621 usecs/op
| 4395.087500 usecs/op/cpu
38.08% [kernel] [k] queued_spin_lock_slowpath
10.81% [kernel] [k] smp_cfm_core_cond
3.01% [kernel] [k] update_sg_lb_stats
2.58% [kernel] [k] osq_lock
2.57% [kernel] [k] llist_reverse_order
1.45% [kernel] [k] find_next_bit
1.21% [kernel] [k] flush_tlb_func_common
1.01% [kernel] [k] arch_install_hw_breakpoint
Showing that the time spent hashing keys has become insignificant.
With the given benchmark parameters, that's an improvement of 12%
compared with the old O(#cpus) version.
And finally, using the less aggressive parameters from the preceding
changes, we now observe:
| $> perf bench -r 30 breakpoint thread -b 4 -p 64 -t 64
| # Running 'breakpoint/thread' benchmark:
| # Created/joined 30 threads with 4 breakpoints and 64 parallelism
| Total time: 0.067 [sec]
|
| 35.292187 usecs/op
| 2258.700000 usecs/op/cpu
Which is an improvement of 12% compared to without the histogram
optimizations (baseline is 40 usecs/op). This is now on par with the
theoretical ideal (constraints disabled), and only 12% slower than no
breakpoints at all.

perf/hw_breakpoint: Reduce contention with large number of tasks
While optimizing task_bp_pinned()'s runtime complexity to O(1) on
average helps reduce time spent in the critical section, we still suffer
due to serializing everything via 'nr_bp_mutex'. Indeed, a profile shows
that now contention is the biggest issue:
95.93% [kernel] [k] osq_lock
0.70% [kernel] [k] mutex_spin_on_owner
0.22% [kernel] [k] smp_cfm_core_cond
0.18% [kernel] [k] task_bp_pinned
0.18% [kernel] [k] rhashtable_jhash2
0.15% [kernel] [k] queued_spin_lock_slowpath
when running the breakpoint benchmark with (system with 256 CPUs):
| $> perf bench -r 30 breakpoint thread -b 4 -p 64 -t 64
| # Running 'breakpoint/thread' benchmark:
| # Created/joined 30 threads with 4 breakpoints and 64 parallelism
| Total time: 0.207 [sec]
|
| 108.267188 usecs/op
| 6929.100000 usecs/op/cpu
The main concern for synchronizing the breakpoint constraints data is
that a consistent snapshot of the per-CPU and per-task data is observed.
The access pattern is as follows:
1. If the target is a task: the task's pinned breakpoints are counted,
checked for space, and then appended to; only bp_cpuinfo::cpu_pinned
is used to check for conflicts with CPU-only breakpoints;
bp_cpuinfo::tsk_pinned are incremented/decremented, but otherwise
unused.
2. If the target is a CPU: bp_cpuinfo::cpu_pinned are counted, along
with bp_cpuinfo::tsk_pinned; after a successful check, cpu_pinned is
incremented. No per-task breakpoints are checked.
Since rhltable safely synchronizes insertions/deletions, we can allow
concurrency as follows:
1. If the target is a task: independent tasks may update and check the
constraints concurrently, but same-task target calls need to be
serialized; since bp_cpuinfo::tsk_pinned is only updated, but not
checked, these modifications can happen concurrently by switching
tsk_pinned to atomic_t.
2. If the target is a CPU: access to the per-CPU constraints needs to
be serialized with other CPU-target and task-target callers (to
stabilize the bp_cpuinfo::tsk_pinned snapshot).
We can allow the above concurrency by introducing a per-CPU constraints
data reader-writer lock (bp_cpuinfo_sem), and per-task mutexes (reuses
task_struct::perf_event_mutex):
1. If the target is a task: acquires perf_event_mutex, and acquires
bp_cpuinfo_sem as a reader. The choice of percpu-rwsem minimizes
contention in the presence of many read-lock but few write-lock
acquisitions: we assume many orders of magnitude more task target
breakpoints creations/destructions than CPU target breakpoints.
2. If the target is a CPU: acquires bp_cpuinfo_sem as a writer.
With these changes, contention with thousands of tasks is reduced to the
point where waiting on locking no longer dominates the profile:
| $> perf bench -r 30 breakpoint thread -b 4 -p 64 -t 64
| # Running 'breakpoint/thread' benchmark:
| # Created/joined 30 threads with 4 breakpoints and 64 parallelism
| Total time: 0.077 [sec]
|
| 40.201563 usecs/op
| 2572.900000 usecs/op/cpu
21.54% [kernel] [k] task_bp_pinned
20.18% [kernel] [k] rhashtable_jhash2
6.81% [kernel] [k] toggle_bp_slot
5.47% [kernel] [k] queued_spin_lock_slowpath
3.75% [kernel] [k] smp_cfm_core_cond
3.48% [kernel] [k] bcmp
On this particular setup that's a speedup of 2.7x.
We're also getting closer to the theoretical ideal performance through
optimizations in hw_breakpoint.c -- constraints accounting disabled:
| perf bench -r 30 breakpoint thread -b 4 -p 64 -t 64
| # Running 'breakpoint/thread' benchmark:
| # Created/joined 30 threads with 4 breakpoints and 64 parallelism
| Total time: 0.067 [sec]
|
| 35.286458 usecs/op
| 2258.333333 usecs/op/cpu
Which means the current implementation is ~12% slower than the
theoretical ideal.
For reference, performance without any breakpoints:
| $> bench -r 30 breakpoint thread -b 0 -p 64 -t 64
| # Running 'breakpoint/thread' benchmark:
| # Created/joined 30 threads with 0 breakpoints and 64 parallelism
| Total time: 0.060 [sec]
|
| 31.365625 usecs/op
| 2007.400000 usecs/op/cpu
On a system with 256 CPUs, the theoretical ideal is only ~12% slower
than no breakpoints at all; the current implementation is ~28% slower.

perf/hw_breakpoint: Optimize max_bp_pinned_slots() for CPU-independent task targets
Running the perf benchmark with (note: more aggressive parameters vs.
preceding changes, but same 256 CPUs host):
| $> perf bench -r 100 breakpoint thread -b 4 -p 128 -t 512
| # Running 'breakpoint/thread' benchmark:
| # Created/joined 100 threads with 4 breakpoints and 128 parallelism
| Total time: 1.989 [sec]
|
| 38.854160 usecs/op
| 4973.332500 usecs/op/cpu
20.43% [kernel] [k] queued_spin_lock_slowpath
18.75% [kernel] [k] osq_lock
16.98% [kernel] [k] rhashtable_jhash2
8.34% [kernel] [k] task_bp_pinned
4.23% [kernel] [k] smp_cfm_core_cond
3.65% [kernel] [k] bcmp
2.83% [kernel] [k] toggle_bp_slot
1.87% [kernel] [k] find_next_bit
1.49% [kernel] [k] __reserve_bp_slot
We can see that a majority of the time is now spent hashing task
pointers to index into task_bps_ht in task_bp_pinned().
Obtaining the max_bp_pinned_slots() for CPU-independent task targets
currently is O(#cpus), and calls task_bp_pinned() for each CPU, even if
the result of task_bp_pinned() is CPU-independent.
The loop in max_bp_pinned_slots() wants to compute the maximum slots
across all CPUs. If task_bp_pinned() is CPU-independent, we can do so by
obtaining the max slots across all CPUs and adding task_bp_pinned().
To do so in O(1), use a bp_slots_histogram for CPU-pinned slots.
After this optimization:
| $> perf bench -r 100 breakpoint thread -b 4 -p 128 -t 512
| # Running 'breakpoint/thread' benchmark:
| # Created/joined 100 threads with 4 breakpoints and 128 parallelism
| Total time: 1.930 [sec]
|
| 37.697832 usecs/op
| 4825.322500 usecs/op/cpu
19.13% [kernel] [k] queued_spin_lock_slowpath
18.21% [kernel] [k] rhashtable_jhash2
15.46% [kernel] [k] osq_lock
6.27% [kernel] [k] toggle_bp_slot
5.91% [kernel] [k] task_bp_pinned
5.05% [kernel] [k] smp_cfm_core_cond
1.78% [kernel] [k] update_sg_lb_stats
1.36% [kernel] [k] llist_reverse_order
1.34% [kernel] [k] find_next_bit
1.19% [kernel] [k] bcmp
Suggesting that time spent in task_bp_pinned() has been reduced.
However, we're still hashing too much, which will be addressed in the
subsequent change.

perf/hw_breakpoint: Add KUnit test for constraints accounting
Add KUnit test for hw_breakpoint constraints accounting, with various
interesting mixes of breakpoint targets (some care was taken to catch
interesting corner cases via bug-injection).
The test cannot be built as a module because it requires access to
hw_breakpoint_slots(), which is not inlinable or exported on all
architectures.

powerpc/hw_breakpoint: Avoid relying on caller synchronization
Internal data structures (cpu_bps, task_bps) of powerpc's hw_breakpoint
implementation have relied on nr_bp_mutex serializing access to them.
Before overhauling synchronization of kernel/events/hw_breakpoint.c,
introduce 2 spinlocks to synchronize cpu_bps and task_bps respectively,
thus avoiding reliance on callers synchronizing powerpc's hw_breakpoint.

perf/hw_breakpoint: Make hw_breakpoint_weight() inlinable
Due to being a __weak function, hw_breakpoint_weight() will cause the
compiler to always emit a call to it. This generates unnecessarily bad
code (register spills etc.) for no good reason; in fact it appears in
profiles of `perf bench -r 100 breakpoint thread -b 4 -p 128 -t 512`:
...
0.70% [kernel] [k] hw_breakpoint_weight
...
While a small percentage, no architecture defines its own
hw_breakpoint_weight() nor are there users outside hw_breakpoint.c,
which makes the fact it is currently __weak a poor choice.
Change hw_breakpoint_weight()'s definition to follow a similar protocol
to hw_breakpoint_slots(), such that if <asm/hw_breakpoint.h> defines
hw_breakpoint_weight(), we'll use it instead.
The result is that it is inlined and no longer shows up in profiles.

perf/hw_breakpoint: Remove useless code related to flexible breakpoints
Flexible breakpoints have never been implemented, with
bp_cpuinfo::flexible always being 0. Unfortunately, they still occupy 4
bytes in each bp_cpuinfo and bp_busy_slots, as well as computing the max
flexible count in fetch_bp_busy_slots().
This again causes suboptimal code generation, when we always know that
`!!slots.flexible` will be 0.
Just get rid of the flexible "placeholder" and remove all real code
related to it. Make a note in the comment related to the constraints
algorithm but don't remove them from the algorithm, so that if in future
flexible breakpoints need supporting, it should be trivial to revive
them (along with reverting this change).

perf/hw_breakpoint: Optimize constant number of breakpoint slots
Optimize internal hw_breakpoint state if the architecture's number of
breakpoint slots is constant. This avoids several kmalloc() calls and
potentially unnecessary failures if the allocations fail, as well as
subtly improves code generation and cache locality.
The protocol is that if an architecture defines hw_breakpoint_slots via
the preprocessor, it must be constant and the same for all types.

perf/hw_breakpoint: Introduce bp_slots_histogram
Factor out the existing `atomic_t count[N]` into its own struct called
'bp_slots_histogram', to generalize and make its intent clearer in
preparation of reusing elsewhere. The basic idea of bucketing "total
uses of N slots" resembles a histogram, so calling it such seems most
intuitive.
No functional change.

perf/hw_breakpoint: Optimize list of per-task breakpoints
On a machine with 256 CPUs, running the recently added perf breakpoint
benchmark results in:
| $> perf bench -r 30 breakpoint thread -b 4 -p 64 -t 64
| # Running 'breakpoint/thread' benchmark:
| # Created/joined 30 threads with 4 breakpoints and 64 parallelism
| Total time: 236.418 [sec]

The benchmark tests inherited breakpoint perf events across many

Looking at a perf profile, we can see that the majority of the time is
spent in various hw_breakpoint.c functions, which execute within the
'nr_bp_mutex' critical sections which then results in contention on that
mutex as well:
37.27% [kernel] [k] osq_lock
34.92% [kernel] [k] mutex_spin_on_owner
12.15% [kernel] [k] toggle_bp_slot
11.90% [kernel] [k] __reserve_bp_slot
The culprit here is task_bp_pinned(), which has a runtime complexity of
O(#tasks) due to storing all task breakpoints in the same list and
iterating through that list looking for a matching task. Clearly, this
does not scale to thousands of tasks.
Instead, make use of the "rhashtable" variant "rhltable" which stores
multiple items with the same key in a list. This results in average
runtime complexity of O(1) for task_bp_pinned().
With the optimization, the benchmark shows:
| $> perf bench -r 30 breakpoint thread -b 4 -p 64 -t 64
| # Running 'breakpoint/thread' benchmark:
| # Created/joined 30 threads with 4 breakpoints and 64 parallelism
| Total time: 0.208 [sec]
|
| 108.422396 usecs/op
| 6939.033333 usecs/op/cpu
On this particular setup that's a speedup of ~1135x.
While one option would be to make task_struct a breakpoint list node,
this would only further bloat task_struct for infrequently used data.
Furthermore, after all optimizations in this series, there's no evidence
it would result in better performance: later optimizations make the time
spent looking up entries in the hash table negligible (we'll reach the
theoretical ideal performance i.e. no constraints).
