11 years agoFix: urcu-bp segfault in glibc pthread_kill()

Fix: urcu-bp segfault in glibc pthread_kill()

This fixes an issue that appears after this recent urcu-bp fix is
applied:

  Fix: urcu-bp: Bulletproof RCU arena resize bug

Prior to this fix, on Linux at least, the behavior was to allocate
(and leak) one memory map region per reader thread. It worked, except
for the unfortunate leak. The fact that it worked, even though not the
way we had intended it to, is is why testing did not raise any red flag.
That state of affairs has prevailed for a long time, but it was
side-tracking some issues. After fixing the underlying bug that was
causing the memory map leak, another issue appears.

The garbage collection scheme reclaiming the thread tracking structures
in urcu-bp fails in stress tests to due a bug in glibc (tested against
glibc 2.13 and 2.17). Under this workload, on a 2-core/hyperthreaded i7:

./test_urcu_bp 40 4 10

we can easily trigger a segmentation fault in the pthread_kill() code.

Program terminated with signal 11, Segmentation fault.

It appears that the memory backing the thread information can be
relinquished by NPTL concurrently with execution of pthread_kill()
targeting an already joined thread and cause this segfault. We were
using pthread_kill(tid, 0) to discover if the target thread was alive or
not, as documented in pthread_kill(3):

       If  sig  is 0, then no signal is sent, but error checking is still per‐
       formed; this can be used to check for the existence of a thread ID.

but it appears that the glibc implementation is racy.

Instead of using the racy pthread_kill implementation, implement cleanup
using a pthread_key destroy notifier for a dummy key. This notifier is
called for each thread exit and destroy.

11 years agoFix urcu-bp: don't move registry
Mathieu Desnoyers [Tue, 1 Oct 2013 14:51:10 +0000 (10:51 -0400)] 
Fix urcu-bp: don't move registry

It is not correct to move the registry address range, since there are
external references from reader threads. This will trigger on workloads
with many threads.

Typically, on Linux, mremap can expand the existing range, which is OK.
However, if there is not enough space around the existing range, it may
try to map it at a different address, which is incorrect.

It is more likely that this bug will be observed on operating systems
where urcu uses the mmap/munmap fallback instead of mremap.

Moreover, prior to commit:

  "Fix: urcu-bp: Bulletproof RCU arena resize bug"

this issue was hidden by the fact that each thread ended up with their
own memory mapping (leaked), on Linux at least.

Fix: i386 compat code duplicated mutex instances

compat_arch_x86.c is linked into many .so and even into test programs.
The basic problem with this is that it contains a statically defined
mutex, which will fail to protect concurrent use of this compat code by
different shared objects.

Fix this by defining both the mutex (now called __urcu_x86_compat_mutex)

gets loaded in a program will by used by everyone.

Fix: hash table growth (for small tables) should be limited

Buckets with many entries encountered in a hash table could cause it to
grow to a large size, beyond the scope for which this mechanism is
expected to play a role when node accounting is available. Indeed, when
the hash table grows to larger size, split-counter node accounting is
expected to deal with resize/shrink rather than relying on an heuristic
based on the largest bucket size.

This is fixing an issue where we see hash tables sometimes reaching 65k
entries index (65536*8 = 524288 bytes) for a workload limited to adding
1000 entries and then removing all of them, done in a loop (random

system headers. Check dynamically for membarrier availability to ensure

11 years agoFix: Use a filled signal mask to disable all signals
Mathieu Desnoyers [Fri, 10 May 2013 11:30:18 +0000 (07:30 -0400)] 
Fix: Use a filled signal mask to disable all signals

Changelog from David Pelton's original patch:

While using lttng-ust with an application that was calling fork()
with pending signals, I found that all signals were getting unmasked
shortly before the underlying call to fork().  After some
investigation, I found that the rcu_bp_before_fork() function was
unmasking all signals.  Based on the comments for this function, it
should be masking all signals.  Inspection of the rest of the code
in urcu-bp.c revealed the same pattern in two other functions.

This patch changes the code to use a filled signal mask to disable
all signals.  The change to rcu_bp_before_fork() addressed the
problem I was seeing while using lttng-ust.  The changes to the
other two functions appear to fix other instances of the same
problem.

Updates by Mathieu Desnoyers:

- Use SIG_BLOCK instead of SIG_SETMASK when setting a filled mask. This
  has the same behavior in this case (since we're blocking all signals),
  but is semantically neater: if we ever some signals from that mask,
  we'd like to to a union with the signal mask already blocked by the
  application.
- Also fix incorrect signal masking in compat_arch_x86.c.

11 years agourcu: make the code of urcu-qsbr as normal urcu
Lai Jiangshan [Mon, 6 May 2013 12:32:02 +0000 (08:32 -0400)] 
urcu: make the code of urcu-qsbr as normal urcu

urcu-qsbr's read site's quiescence is much longer than normal urcu ==>
synchronize_rcu() is much slower ==>
rcu_gp_ctr is updated much less ==>
the whole urcu-qsbr will not be slowed down by false sharing of rcu_gp_ctr.

But this patch makes sense to keep the code of urcu-qsbr like normal urcu,
better readability and maintenance.
