Well, the patch didn't apply on 2.6.8, 2.6.9-rc1 or BitKeeper. Please
recreate on a defined kernel level.

So far ptep_get_and_clear is called with the page table lock held. That
means that you don't have to protect yourself against concurrent updates
of a pte on different processors. The only thing you need to ensure is
that the update of a pte is atomic in the sense that a page table walk
by the hardware either sees the new or the old value.
Without the page table lock all of a sudden you have to make sure that
the sequence of the get and the clear is atomic, otherwise you have a
race on a SMP system. That means that you have to implement ptep_xchg
using an atomic instruction. You can't just read and store the pte like
you do in your patch. Use xchg. And I fear that there are other subtle
races as well if you remove the page table lock.

> pgalloc.h: pgd_test_and_populate, pmd_test_and_populate.

One of the problems with you patch is that on s/390 you can't do an atomic
update of a page middle directory (pmd). On 64 bit there are two 8 byte
words and on 31 bit there are four 4 bytes words that need to be modified
for a single pmd entry. You need to use the page table lock to update pmds.
Another problem is that an invalid PTE/PMD does not equal 0. For invalid,
empty ptes the value is _PAGE_INVALID_EMPTY and for invalid, empty pmds the
value is _PAGE_TABLE_INV for 31 bit and _PMD_ENTRY_INV for 64 bit.

Last time I looked there wasn't a ptep function called ptep_test_and_clear.
If you are refering to ptep_get_and_clear aka pte_clear, on s/390 the store
of a single word is atomic. I checked that the compiler really generates
store instructions ("ST"/"STG") to write something to a ptep pointer.

blue skies,
Martin.

P.S. You should send patches against the memory management to the linux-mm
list.

It applies to 2.6.9-rc1-mm1. Sorry for not clarifying that.

We could acquire the page_table_lock in ptep_get_and_clear etc itself.
That would restore the old situation for those routines but also limit
the time the page_table_lock is held to an absolute minimum.

The get and the clear are not atomic like on other platforms. So s390
is also relying on the page_table_lock there.

Ok. Will post the next release to that list.

Subject: page fault scalability patch v6: fallback to page_table_lock, s390 support

On Wed, 1 Sep 2004, Martin Schwidefsky wrote:

> P.S. You should send patches against the memory management to the linux-mm
> list.

Thanks for all the feedback. I hope I got the s390 support right in the
following patch. PowerPC falls back to the use of the page_table_lock now.
The following patch is against 2.6.9-rc1 (last one was against mm1).

Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter <[email protected]>

This is the sixth release of the page fault scalability patches.
The scalability patches avoid locking during the creation of page table entries for anonymous
memory in a threaded application running on a SMP system. The performance
increases significantly for more than 2 threads running concurrently.

Changes from V5:
- Provide fallback routines in asm-generic/pgtable.h for platforms that do not
support atomic operations on pte/pmd/pgds.
The fallback routines will use the page_table_lock for very short times on
those platforms so that as much as possible of the performance gain through
concurrent page faults is preversed.
- Provide s390 support for atomic pte operations.

Typical performance increases in the page fault rate are:
2 CPUs -> 10%
4 CPUs -> 30%
8 CPUs -> 50%

With a high number of CPUs (16..512) we are seeing the page fault rate roughly doubling.

This is accomplished by avoiding the use of the page_table_lock spinlock (but not
mm->mmap_sem!) through providing new atomic operations on pte's (ptep_xchg, ptep_cmpxchg)
and on pmd and pdg's (pgd_test_and_populate, pmd_test_and_populate). The page table lock
can be avoided in the following situations:

1. Operations where an empty pte or pmd entry is populated
This is safe since the swapper may only depopulate them and the
swapper code has been changed to never set a pte to be empty until the
page has been evicted.

2. Modifications of flags in a pte entry (write/accessed).
These modifications are done by the CPU or by low level handlers
on various platforms which is also bypassing all locks. So this
seems to be safe too.

It was necessary to make mm->rss atomic since the page_table_lock was also used
to protect incrementing and decrementing rss.

Atomic operations are supported for i386, ia64, x86_64 and s390 (pmd_test_and_populate on s390
still requires the page_table_lock).

The scalability could be further increased if the locking scheme (mmap_sem, page_table lock etc)
would be changed but this would require significant changes to the memory subsystem.
This patch lays the groundwork for future work by providing a way to handle page table
entries via xchg and cmpxchg.
