From 925d519ab82b6dd7aca9420d809ee83819c08db2 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Mon, 30 Mar 2009 19:07:02 +0200 Subject: perf_counter: unify and fix delayed counter wakeup While going over the wakeup code I noticed delayed wakeups only work for hardware counters but basically all software counters rely on them. This patch unifies and generalizes the delayed wakeup to fix this issue. Since we're dealing with NMI context bits here, use a cmpxchg() based single link list implementation to track counters that have pending wakeups. [ This should really be generic code for delayed wakeups, but since we cannot use cmpxchg()/xchg() in generic code, I've let it live in the perf_counter code. -- Eric Dumazet could use it to aggregate the network wakeups. ] Furthermore, the x86 method of using TIF flags was flawed in that its quite possible to end up setting the bit on the idle task, loosing the wakeup. The powerpc method uses per-cpu storage and does appear to be sufficient.

That can cause long latencies for xtime_lock readers on large SMP systems. The load average calculation is an rough estimate anyway so there is no real need to protect the readers vs. the update. It's not a problem when the avenrun array is updated while a reader copies the values. Instead of iterating over all online CPUs let the scheduler_tick code update the number of active tasks shortly before the avenrun update happens. The avenrun update itself is handled by the CPU which calls do_timer().
