13 years agourcu call_rcu: Use RCU read-side protection for per-cpu call_rcu data
Mathieu Desnoyers [Thu, 29 Sep 2011 21:13:48 +0000 (17:13 -0400)] 
urcu call_rcu: Use RCU read-side protection for per-cpu call_rcu data

A concurrent get_cpu_call_rcu_data(), called by get_call_rcu_data(),
could dereference this pointer without holding any mutex. So this
situation would happen if we have a concurrent call_rcu() executing
while we do the create_all_cpu_call_rcu_data().

I think we would need to put a rcu_dereference() around
per_cpu_call_rcu_data read within get_cpu_call_rcu_data() too.
per_cpu_call_rcu_data should be done with rcu_set_pointer.

Also, a rcu read-side critical section would be required around any
usage of per_cpu_call_rcu_data, and the action of tearing down the
per-cpu data would require to wait for a quiescent state. So we would
basically require that the call_rcu users need to be registered as
RCU reader threads.

Good catch.  Why not use rcu_thread_offline/online in synchronize_rcu,
instead of touching rcu_reader.ctr directly?  I had this in my QEMU
branch but hadn't posted yet because it was meant as a cleanup only.

cmm: do not generate code for smp_rmb/smp_wmb on x86_64

We can assume, on x86, that no accesses to write-combining memory occur,
and also that there are no non-temporal load/stores (people would
presumably write those with assembly or intrinsics and put appropriate
lfence/sfence manually). In this case rmb and wmb are no-ops on x86.
according to the updated x86 memory models:

INTEL CORPORATION. Intel 64 Architecture Memory Ordering White Paper,
2007.
http://developer.intel.com/products/processor/manuals/318147.pdf

ADVANCED MICRO DEVICES. AMD x86-64 Architecture Programmer’s Manual

Paul E. McKenney. Memory Ordering in Modern Microprocessors
www.rdrop.com/users/paulmck/scalability/paper/ordering.2007.09.19a.pdf

x86 does not reorder loads vs loads, and stores vs stores when using
normal memory accesses, with the notable exceptions of Pentium Pro
(reorders reads) and WinChip (reorders writes). Therefore, it is safe
not to emit fence instructions for x86_64 cmm_smp_rmb()/cmm_smp_wmb(),
but we leave the memory fences in place for x86_32 for those two
special-cases.

Define cmm_smp_rmb and cmm_smp_wmb to be the "common" operations that
do not require fence instruction, while leaving cmm_rmb and cmm_wmb in
place for more sophisticated uses.
