[PATCH v11] x86/split_lock: Enable split lock detection by kernel parameter
From: Tony Luck
Date: Thu Dec 12 2019 - 19:10:39 EST
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
A split-lock occurs when an atomic instruction operates on data
that spans two cache lines. In order to maintain atomicity the
core takes a global bus lock.
This is typically >1000 cycles slower than an atomic operation
within a cache line. It also disrupts performance on other cores
(which must wait for the bus lock to be released before their
memory operations can complete. For real-time systems this may
mean missing deadlines. For other systems it may just be very
annoying.
Some CPUs have the capability to raise an #AC trap when a
split lock is attempted.
Provide a command line option to give the user choices on how
to handle this. split_lock_detect=
off - not enabled (no traps for split locks)
warn - warn once when an application does a
split lock, bust allow it to continue
running.
fatal - Send SIGBUS to applications that cause split lock
Default is "warn". Note that if the kernel hits a split lock
in any mode other than "off" it will OOPs.
One implementation wrinkle is that the MSR to control the
split lock detection is per-core, not per thread. This might
result in some short lived races on HT systems in "warn" mode
if Linux tries to enable on one thread while disabling on
the other. Race analysis by Sean Christopherson:
- Toggling of split-lock is only done in "warn" mode. Worst case
scenario of a race is that a misbehaving task will generate multiple
#AC exceptions on the same instruction. And this race will only occur
if both siblings are running tasks that generate split-lock #ACs, e.g.
a race where sibling threads are writing different values will only
occur if CPUx is disabling split-lock after an #AC and CPUy is
re-enabling split-lock after *its* previous task generated an #AC.
- Transitioning between modes at runtime isn't supported and disabling
is tracked per task, so hardware will always reach a steady state that
matches the configured mode. I.e. split-lock is guaranteed to be
enabled in hardware once all _TIF_SLD threads have been scheduled out.

[Note that I gave PeterZ Author credit because the majority
of the code here came from his untested patch. I just fixed
the typos. He didn't give a "Signed-off-by" ... so he can
either add one to this, or disavow all knowledge - his choice]
