From 642fa448ae6b3a4e5e8737054a094173405b7643 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Davidlohr Bueso Date: Tue, 3 Jan 2017 13:43:14 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] sched/core: Remove set_task_state() This is a nasty interface and setting the state of a foreign task must not be done. As of the following commit: be628be0956 ("bcache: Make gc wakeup sane, remove set_task_state()") ... everyone in the kernel calls set_task_state() with current, allowing the helper to be removed. However, as the comment indicates, it is still around for those archs where computing current is more expensive than using a pointer, at least in theory. An important arch that is affected is arm64, however this has been addressed now [1] and performance is up to par making no difference with either calls. Of all the callers, if any, it's the locking bits that would care most about this -- ie: we end up passing a tsk pointer to a lot of the lock slowpath, and setting ->state on that. The following numbers are based on two tests: a custom ad-hoc microbenchmark that just measures latencies (for ~65 million calls) between get_task_state() vs get_current_state(). Secondly for a higher overview, an unlink microbenchmark was used, which pounds on a single file with open, close,unlink combos with increasing thread counts (up to 4x ncpus). While the workload is quite unrealistic, it does contend a lot on the inode mutex or now rwsem.

The small delta for ppc64 (2ms), does not represent the gains on the unlink runs. In the case of x86, there was a decent amount of variation in the latency runs, but always within a 20 to 50ms increase), ppc was more constant.
