perf bench futex: Add lock_pi stresser

2015-07-20T20:49:51+00:00

Allows a way of measuring low level kernel implementation of FUTEX_LOCK_PI and
FUTEX_UNLOCK_PI.

The program comes in two flavors:

(i) single futex (default), all threads contend on the same uaddr.  For the
sake of the benchmark, we call into kernel space even when the lock is
uncontended.  The kernel will set it to TID, any waters that come in and
contend for the pi futex will be handled respectively by the kernel.

(ii) -M option for multiple futexes, each thread deals with its own futex. This
is a trivial scenario and only measures kernel handling of 0->TID transition.

perf bench numa: Share sched_getcpu() __weak def with cloexec.c

2015-05-18T15:36:46+00:00

We really should move the sched_getcpu() to some more suitable place,
but this one-liner fixes this build problem on ancient distros like
RHEL5.

perf bench futex: Handle spurious wakeups

2015-05-08T19:24:02+00:00

Wrap futex_wait around a loop and catch for EINTR.

Either a spurious wakeup occurred or a signal interrupted is, either way
we need to block again.

perf bench futex: Support parallel waker threads

2015-05-08T19:23:50+00:00

The futex-wake benchmark only measures wakeups done within a single
process. While this has value in its own, it does not really generate
any hb->lock contention.

A new benchmark 'wake-parallel' is added, by extending the futex-wake
code such that we can measure parallel waker threads. The program output
shows the avg per-thread latency in order to complete its share of
wakeups:

Run summary [PID 13474]: blocking on 512 threads (at [private] futex 0xa88668), 8 threads waking up 64 at a time.

[Run 1]: Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 0.6230 ms (+-15.31%)
[Run 2]: Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 0.5175 ms (+-29.95%)
[Run 3]: Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 0.7578 ms (+-18.03%)
[Run 4]: Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 0.8944 ms (+-12.54%)
[Run 5]: Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 1.1204 ms (+-23.85%)
Avg per-thread latency (waking 64/512 threads) in 0.7826 ms (+-9.91%)

Naturally, different combinations of numbers of blocking and waker
threads will exhibit different information.

perf bench numa: Fix immediate meeting of convergence condition

2015-04-27T16:57:50+00:00

This patch fixes the race in the beginning of benchmark run when some
threads hasn't got assigned curr_cpu yet so they don't occur in
nodes-of-process stats and benchmark concludes that all remaining
threads are converged already.

The race can be reproduced with small amount of threads and some bigger
amount of shared process memory, e.g. one process, two threads and 5GB
of process memory.
