thanks.

mostly yes. the kernel is not so dramatically slower now. it's still
seems to be a bit slower, which is expected I suppose, but over all
it's much better

real1m35.209s
user4m12.467s
sys 0m49.457s

// approx 10 seconds slower.

Yeah.. I also think this is most significant..

Aah, we do an unconditional stack unwind for every __lock_acquire() now.
It keeps a trace in the xhlocks[].

Does the below cure most of that overhead?

Right,.. so when I look at perf annotate for __lock_acquire and
lock_release (the two most expensive lockdep functions in a kernel
profile) I don't actually see much cross-release stuff.

So the overhead looks to be spread out over all sorts, which makes it
harder to find and fix.

stack unwinding is done lots and is fairly expensive, I've not yet
checked if crossrelease does too much of that.

The below saved about 50% of my __lock_acquire() time, not sure it made
a significant difference over all though.

well, I expected it :)

I've been running lockdep enabled kernels for years, and was OK with
the performance. but now it's just too much and I'm looking at disabling
lockdep.

a more relevant test -- compilation of a relatively small project

  LOCKDEP -CROSSRELEASE -COMPLETIONS LOCKDEP +CROSSRELEASE +COMPLETIONS

   real1m23.722s  real2m9.969s
   user4m11.300s  user4m15.458s

you don't want to know how much time now it takes to recompile the
kernel ;)

To Ingo,

I cannot decide if we have to roll back CONFIG_LOCKDEP_CROSSRELEASE
dependency on CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING in Kconfig. With them enabled,
lockdep detection becomes strong but has performance impact. But,
it's anyway a debug option so IMHO we don't have to take case of the
performance impact. Please let me know your decision.

Byungchul, a quick question.
have you measured the performance impact? somehow my linux-next is
notably slower than earlier 4.13 linux-next. (e.g. scrolling in vim
is irritatingly slow)


`time dmesg' shows some difference, but probably that's not a good
test.

!LOCKDEPLOCKDEP LOCKDEP -CROSSRELEASE -COMPLETIONS
real 0m0.661s   0m2.290s0m1.920s
user 0m0.010s   0m0.105s0m0.000s
sys  0m0.636s   0m2.224s0m1.888s

anyone else "sees"/"can confirm" the slow down?


it gets back to "usual normal" when I disable CROSSRELEASE and COMPLETIONS.

well, yes. with one precondition - there should be no printk-s from other
CPUs/tasks in between

printk(KERN_CON "...");  +  printk(KERN_CONT "...\n")
   ^
here we can have a preliminary flush and broken
cont line. but it's been this way forever.

So means printk(KERN_CON "..."); + printk(KERN_CONT "...\n") is a
correct usage, right? Thanks. Again, not familiar with printk stuff,
glad you can help me go through this ;-)

Yes, people might not have expected to hit the timeout on this. They
might think timeout means a dead device or something like that.

I'd like to heard from the block folks if this was constructed thus on
purpose though.

has been this way for quite some time (if not always).

LOG_NEWLINE results in cont_flush(), which log_store() the content
of KERN_CONT buffer.

if we see that supplied message has no \n then we store it in a
dedicated buffer (cont buffer)

if (!(lflags & LOG_NEWLINE))
return cont_add();

return log_store();

we flush that buffer (move its content to the kernel log buffer) when
we receive a message with a \n or when printk() from another task/context
interrupts the current cont line and, thus, forces us to flush.

Hmm.. Not quite familiar with printk() stuffs, but I could see several
usages of printk(KERN_CONT "...\n") in kernel.

Did a bit research myself, and I now think the inappropriate use is to
use a KERN_CONT printk *after* another printk ending with a "\n". Am I
missing some recent changes or rules of KERN_CONT?

Well, that print_lock() will print the cross lock acquisition
information at other contexts, but the current thread is doing the
commit. So I think the information would be a little misleading. I will
add "aacquired at" to indicate the lock information is for acquisition.

Ah.. right.

How about this:

pr_warn("%s/%d is committing a crossrelease lock acquired 
at:\n",
curr->comm, task_pid_nr(curr));
print_lock(check_tgt);
pr_warn("\n, after having the following lock held at least 
once:\n");

KERN_CONT and "\n" should not be together. "\n" flushes the cont
buffer immediately.

I think it would be better to print something in term of acquisition,
since the following print_lock() will print infromation of acquisition.

The lock does not have to be held at the commit.

While I'm on this one, I think we should also add a case in @check_src
is a cross lock, i.e. we detect cross deadlock at the acquisition time
of the cross lock. How about the following?

Subject: [PATCH] lockdep: Print proper scenario if cross deadlock detected at
 acquisition time

For a potential deadlock about CROSSRELEASE as follow:

P1  P2
=== =
lock(A)
lock(X)
lock(A)
commit(X)

A: normal lock, X: cross lock

, we could detect it at two places:

1. commit time:

We have run P1 first, and have dependency A --> X in graph, and
then we run P2, and find the deadlock.

2. acquisition time:

We have run P2 first, and have dependency A --> X, in
graph(because another P3 may run previously and is acquiring for
lock X), and then we run P1 and find the deadlock.

In current print_circular_lock_scenario(), for 1) we could print the
right scenario and note that's a deadlock related to CROSSRELEASE,
however for 2) we print the scenario as a normal lockdep deadlock.

It's better to print a proper scenario related to CROSSRELEASE to help
users find their bugs more easily, so improve this.

I felt this message really misleading, because the deadlock is detected
at the commit time of "((complete)#2)" rather than the acquisition
time of "(>bd_mutex)", so I made the following improvement.

Subject: [PATCH] lockdep: Improve the readibility of crossrelease related

When a crossrelease related deadlock is detected in a commit, the
current implemention makes splats like:

However, it could be misleading because the current task has got the
lock already, and in fact the deadlock is detected when it is doing the
commit of the crossrelease lock. So make the splats more accurate to
describe the deadlock case.

The report is talking about the following lockup:

A work in a worker A task work on exit to user
-- ---
mutex_lock(>bd_mutex)
   mutext_lock(>bd_mutex)
blk_execute_rq()
   wait_for_completion_io_timeout()
   complete()

Is this impossible?

To Peterz,

Anyway I wanted to avoid lockdep reports in the case using a timeout
interface. Do you think it's still worth reporting the kind of lockup?
I'm ok if you do.

Byungchul, did you add the crosslock checks to lockdep? Can you have a look at
the above report? That report namely doesn't make sense to me.

possible circular locking dependency detected [was: linux-next: Tree for Aug 22]

Hello,

fsck.ext4/148 is trying to acquire lock:
 (>bd_mutex){+.+.}, at: [] __blkdev_put+0x33/0x190

 but now in release context of a crosslock acquired at the following:
 ((complete)#2){+.+.}, at: [] blk_execute_rq+0xbb/0xda

 which lock already depends on the new lock.

 the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
