A sequence lock (seqlock) is a synchronization primitive which allows for data-race free, low-overhead, high-frequency reads, suitable for data structures shared across many cores and which are updated relatively infrequently.
A seqlock permits multiple parallel readers. A spinlock is used to serialize writers. In cases where there is only a single writer, or writer-writer synchronization is done by some external means, the "raw" sequence counter type (and accompanying rte_seqcount_*() functions) may be used instead. To avoid resource reclamation and other issues, the data protected by a seqlock is best off being self-contained (i.e., no pointers [except to constant data]). One way to think about seqlocks is that they provide means to perform atomic operations on data objects larger than what the native atomic machine instructions allow for. DPDK seqlocks (and the underlying sequence counters) are not preemption safe on the writer side. A thread preemption affects performance, not correctness. A seqlock contains a sequence number, which can be thought of as the generation of the data it protects. A reader will 1. Load the sequence number (sn). 2. Load, in arbitrary order, the seqlock-protected data. 3. Load the sn again. 4. Check if the first and second sn are equal, and even numbered. If they are not, discard the loaded data, and restart from 1. The first three steps need to be ordered using suitable memory fences. A writer will 1. Take the spinlock, to serialize writer access. 2. Load the sn. 3. Store the original sn + 1 as the new sn. 4. Perform load and stores to the seqlock-protected data. 5. Store the original sn + 2 as the new sn. 6. Release the spinlock. Proper memory fencing is required to make sure the first sn store, the data stores, and the second sn store appear to the reader in the mentioned order. The sn loads and stores must be atomic, but the data loads and stores need not be. The original seqlock design and implementation was done by Stephen Hemminger. This is an independent implementation, using C11 atomics. For more information on seqlocks, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seqlock --- PATCH v9: * Include <rte_compat.h> for __rte_experimental. The failure to do so caused build failures on 32-bit ARM. PATCH v8: * Move the sequence counter into a separate header file. * Move the initialization code into the header files and eliminate the tiny rte_seqlock.c. PATCH v7: * Factor out the sequence number into a separate type rte_seqcount_t. PATCH v6: * Check for failed memory allocations in unit test. * Fix underflow issue in test case for small RTE_LCORE_MAX values. * Fix test case memory leak. PATCH v5: * Add sequence lock section to MAINTAINERS. * Add entry in the release notes. * Add seqlock reference in the API index. * Fix meson build file indentation. * Use "increment" to describe how a writer changes the sequence number. * Remove compiler barriers from seqlock test. * Use appropriate macros (e.g., TEST_SUCCESS) for test return values. PATCH v4: * Reverted to Linux kernel style naming on the read side. * Bail out early from the retry function if an odd sequence number is encountered. * Added experimental warnings in the API documentation. * Static initializer now uses named field initialization. * Various tweaks to API documentation (including the example). PATCH v3: * Renamed both read and write-side critical section begin/end functions to better match rwlock naming, per Ola Liljedahl's suggestion. * Added 'extern "C"' guards for C++ compatibility. * Refer to the main lcore as the main lcore, and nothing else. PATCH v2: * Skip instead of fail unit test in case too few lcores are available. * Use main lcore for testing, reducing the minimum number of lcores required to run the unit tests to four. * Consistently refer to sn field as the "sequence number" in the documentation. * Fixed spelling mistakes in documentation. Updates since RFC: * Added API documentation. * Added link to Wikipedia article in the commit message. * Changed seqlock sequence number field from uint64_t (which was overkill) to uint32_t. The sn type needs to be sufficiently large to assure no reader will read a sn, access the data, and then read the same sn, but the sn has been incremented enough times to have wrapped during the read, and arrived back at the original sn. * Added RTE_SEQLOCK_INITIALIZER macro for static initialization. * Removed the rte_seqlock struct + separate rte_seqlock_t typedef with an anonymous struct typedef:ed to rte_seqlock_t.
