      mm: relocate 'write_protect_seq' in struct mm_struct · 2e302543
      Feng Tang authored
      0day robot reported a 9.2% regression for will-it-scale mmap1 test
      case[1], caused by commit 57efa1fe ("mm/gup: prevent gup_fast from
      racing with COW during fork").
      
      Further debug shows the regression is due to that commit changes the
      offset of hot fields 'mmap_lock' inside structure 'mm_struct', thus some
      cache alignment changes.
      
      From the perf data, the contention for 'mmap_lock' is very severe and
      takes around 95% cpu cycles, and it is a rw_semaphore
      
              struct rw_semaphore {
                      atomic_long_t count;	/* 8 bytes */
                      atomic_long_t owner;	/* 8 bytes */
                      struct optimistic_spin_queue osq; /* spinner MCS lock */
                      ...
      
      Before commit 57efa1fe adds the 'write_protect_seq', it happens to
      have a very optimal cache alignment layout, as Linus explained:
      
       "and before the addition of the 'write_protect_seq' field, the
        mmap_sem was at offset 120 in 'struct mm_struct'.
      
        Which meant that count and owner were in two different cachelines,
        and then when you have contention and spend time in
        rwsem_down_write_slowpath(), this is probably *exactly* the kind
        of layout you want.
      
        Because first the rwsem_write_trylock() will do a cmpxchg on the
        first cacheline (for the optimistic fast-path), and then in the
        case of contention, rwsem_down_write_slowpath() will just access
        the second cacheline.
      
        Which is probably just optimal for a load that spends a lot of
        time contended - new waiters touch that first cacheline, and then
        they queue themselves up on the second cacheline."
      
      After the commit, the rw_semaphore is at offset 128, which means the
      'count' and 'owner' fields are now in the same cacheline, and causes
      more cache bouncing.
      
      Currently there are 3 "#ifdef CONFIG_XXX" before 'mmap_lock' which will
      affect its offset:
      
        CONFIG_MMU
        CONFIG_MEMBARRIER
        CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_COMPAT_MMAP_BASES
      
      The layout above is on 64 bits system with 0day's default kernel config
      (similar to RHEL-8.3's config), in which all these 3 options are 'y'.
      And the layout can vary with different kernel configs.
      
      Relayouting a structure is usually a double-edged sword, as sometimes it
      can helps one case, but hurt other cases.  For this case, one solution
      is, as the newly added 'write_protect_seq' is a 4 bytes long seqcount_t
      (when CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=n), placing it into an existing 4 bytes
      hole in 'mm_struct' will not change other fields' alignment, while
      restoring the regression.
