urcu/uatomic/riscv: Mark RISC-V as broken

Implementations of some atomic operations of GCC for RISC-V are
insufficient for sequential consistency. For this reason Userspace RCU
is currently marked as `broken' for RISC-V with GCC. However, it is
still possible to use other toolchains.

See https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=104831 for details.

For now, we mark every version of GCC as unsupported. Distribution
package maintainers will have to cherry-pick the relevant patches in GCC
then remove the #error in Userspace RCU if they want to support it.

As for us, we will incrementally add specific versions of GCC that have
fixed the issue whenever new stable releases are made from the GCC
project.

    Running the LTTng-tools tests (test_valid_filter, for example) under

    attribute of CAA_CACHE_LINE_SIZE, the compiler can't ensure the
    alignment of members for dynamically allocated instances.

    The `data` pointer is changed from char* to struct
    lttng_ust_urcu_reader*, allowing the compiler to enforce the expected
    alignment constraints.

    Since `data` was addressed in bytes, the code using this field is
    adapted to use element counts. As the chunks are only used to allocate
    reader instances (and not other types), it makes the code a bit easier

Section 2.2.7 "Atomic Memory Access Instructions" only lists atomic
operations for 32-bit and 64-bit integers. As detailed in Section
2.2.7.1, LL/SC instructions operating on 32-bit and 64-bit integers are
also available. Those are used by the compiler to support atomics on
byte and short types.

This means atomics on 32-bit and 64-bit types have stronger forward
progress guarantees than those operating on 8-bit and 16-bit types.

Fix: call_rcu: teardown default call_rcu worker on application exit

Teardown the default call_rcu worker thread if there are no queued
callbacks on process exit. This prevents leaking memory.

Here is how an application can ensure graceful teardown of this
worker thread:

- An application queuing call_rcu callbacks should invoke
  rcu_barrier() before it exits.
- When chaining call_rcu callbacks, the number of calls to
  rcu_barrier() on application exit must match at least the maximum
  number of chained callbacks.
- If an application chains callbacks endlessly, it would have to be
  modified to stop chaining callbacks when it detects an application
  exit (e.g. with a flag), and wait for quiescence with rcu_barrier()
  after setting that flag.
- The statements above apply to a library which queues call_rcu
  callbacks, only it needs to invoke rcu_barrier in its library
  destructor.

This deadlock is easy to reproduce when rapidly adding a large number of
entries in the cds_lfht, removing them, and calling cds_lfht_destroy().

The deadlock will occur if the call to cds_lfht_destroy() takes place
while a resize of the hash table is ongoing.

Fix this by moving the teardown of the lfht worker thread to libcds
library destructor, so it does not have to wait on synchronize_rcu from
a resize callback from within a read-side critical section. As a
consequence, the atfork callbacks are left registered within each urcu
flavor for which a resizeable hash table is created until the end of the
executable lifetime.

The other part of the fix is to move the hash table destruction to the
worker thread for auto-resize hash tables. This prevents having to wait
for resize callbacks from RCU read-side critical section. This is
guaranteed by the fact that the worker thread serializes previously
queued resize callbacks before the destroy callback.

For rculfhash, cds_lfht_worker_init can be removed, because its only

Commit 1e41ec3b07e4 ("Make temporary variable in _rcu_dereference
non-const") used the trick to add 0 to the pointer passed as a parameter
to the macro to get rid of its constness, should it be const (with the
end goal of avoiding compiler warnings).  This is problematic (as shown
in [1]) if it is a pointer to an opaque type though, as the compiler
cannot perform pointer arithmetic on such a pointer (even though it
wouldn't really need to here, as we add 0).

Change it to use another trick to strip away the constness, that
shouldn't hit this problem.  It was found in the same stackoverflow post
as the original trick [2].  It consists of using a statement expression
like so:

    __typeof__(({ const int foo; foo; }))

The statement expression yields a value of type `int`.  Statement
expressions are extensions to the C language, but we already use them
here.

The test_build* binaries now need to be linked against the urcu library,
otherwise they would be missing the rcu_dereference_sym symbol.

20 months agofix: sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF) can be less than max cpu id

fix: sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF) can be less than max cpu id

We rely on sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF) to get the maximum possible
number of CPUs that can be attached to the system for the lifetime of an
application.

As such we expect that the highest possible CPU id would be one less
than the number returned by sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF) which is
unfortunatly not always the case and can vary across libc
implementations and versions.

Glibc up to 2.35 will count the number of "cpuX" directories in
"/sys/devices/system/cpu" which doesn't include CPUS that were
hot-unplugged.

This information is however provided by the Linux kernel in
"/sys/devices/system/cpu/possible" in the form of a mask listing all the
CPUs that could possibly be hot-plugged in the system.

This patch replaces sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF) with an internal
function that first tries parsing the possible CPU mask to extract the
highest possible value and if this fails fallback to the previous
behavior.

A spurious wakeup on wait_gp can cause wait_gp to return with a

The urcu call_rcu() and rcu_barrier() each implement a futex wait/wakeup
scheme identical to the workqueue code, which has an issue with spurious
wakeups.

* call_rcu

A spurious wakeup on call_rcu_wait can cause call_rcu_wait to return
with a crdp->futex state of -1, which is unexpected. It would cause the

values below -1, thus actively using CPU time as values will be
decremented to very low negative values until the futex value underflows
back to 0. The state is *not* restored to 0 when the callback list is
found to be non-empty, so this unexpected state will persist until the
crdp->futex state underflows back to 0, or until the call_rcu_thread is
stopped. What prevents this from having too much user-observable effects
is that the call rcu thread has a 10ms sleep between loops, to favor
batching of callbacks. Therefore, rather than being a purely 100% active
busy-wait, this scenario leads to a busy-wait which is paced by 10ms
sleeps.

Therefore the observed issue will be that the call_rcu_thread will
unexpectedly wake up the CPU each 10ms after this spurious wakeup
happens.

* rcu_barrier

A spurious wakeup on call_rcu_completion_wait can cause
call_rcu_completion_wait to return with a completion->futex state of -1,
which is unexpected. It would cause the following loops in rcu_barrier()
to decrement the completion->futex to values below -1, thus actively
using CPU time as values will be decremented to very low negative values
until either the barrier count reaches 0 or until the futex value
underflows to 0.

Therefore the observed issue will be that rcu_barrier() will
unexpectedly use a lot of CPU time when this spurious wakeup happens.

These issues will cause spurious unexpected high CPU use, but will not

              can mean a spurious wake-up, and  use  the  futex  word's  value
              (i.e.,  the user-space synchronization scheme) to decide whether
              to continue to block or not.

Solution
========

We therefore need to validate whether the value differs from -1 in
user-space after the call to FUTEX_WAIT returns 0.

Fix: powerpc32: transparent unions alter calling convention

On powerpc32, transparent unions have an impact on the calling
convention used for the argument, as they use the calling convention of
the first field of the union rather than the union itself. On powerpc32,
the calling convention for a union is that the register has a pointer to
the union, which differs from the calling convention of its first field
(which is a pointer in this case).

"[...] the argument is passed to the function using the calling
conventions of the first member of the transparent union, not the
calling conventions of the union itself. All members of the union must
have the same machine representation; this is necessary for this
argument passing to work properly." [1]

Therefore, use a transparent union for c++ so c++ compilers can emit
caller code with a compatible stack layout. The "ignored attribute"
warning emitted by clang appears to be only for architectures where the
calling convention is not affected by the presence of transparent union
attribute. Therefore, simply silence this warning.

in these headers works as both languages.  This alone does not ensure
full coverage, there may be code in unused macros that would need
fixing.  But by including the "static" headers, this already finds a few
issues.

The test doesn't run anything, its purpose is only to verify that things
build.

This catches the following build failures:

 - clang++ doesn't know the __transparent_union__ attribute, place some
   pragmas to ignore this warning around where __transparent_union__ is
   used.

 - CDS_WFS_WOULDBLOCK and CDS_WFS_END are cast to a void*.  This doesn't
   work in C++ when assigning to a field them to typed pointer.  Fix
   them by casting to the appropriate type.

 - The transparent union trick doesn't work in C++:

      CXX      test_build_cxx.o
    In file included from /home/simark/src/urcu/include/urcu/wfstack.h:116,
                     from /home/simark/src/urcu/include/urcu/cds.h:35,
                     from /home/simark/src/urcu/tests/unit/test_build_cxx.cpp:34:
    /home/simark/src/urcu/include/urcu/static/wfstack.h: In function ‘cds_wfs_node* _cds_wfs_pop_with_state_blocking(cds_wfs_stack*, int*)’:
    /home/simark/src/urcu/include/urcu/static/wfstack.h:350:54: error: could not convert ‘s’ from ‘cds_wfs_stack*’ to ‘cds_wfs_stack_ptr_t’

          |                                                      |
          |                                                      cds_wfs_stack*

   A C++ user can fall back to instantiating a cds_wfs_stack_ptr_t
   explicitly, assigning the right field, and passing the
   cds_wfs_stack_ptr_t to the function.  Fix a few instances in the
   static headers.

   A follow up commit will introduce C++ API wrappers based on
   function overloading to provide a C++ API similar to the C API.

Francis Deslauriers [Wed, 1 Sep 2021 17:34:17 +0000 (13:34 -0400)] 
Add `urcu_posix_assert()` as `assert()` replacement

This macro acts like the regular `assert()` macro unless NDEBUG is
defined in which case it consumes the expression and becomes a no-op.

This consumption trick (see `_urcu_use_expression()` macro) prevents the
compiler from warning about unused variables even when assert() are
removed by the NDEBUG define.

This macro is also used for the existing `urcu_assert_debug()` macro.

The implementation of `_urcu_use_expression()` is inspired by the
Babeltrace 2 approach.

See `BT_USE_EXPR()` macro and documentation in Babeltrace commit [1]:

Make temporary variable in _rcu_dereference non-const

When building the lttng-tools project with Ubuntu's gcc 11, I get the
following error:

This is because the pointer passed to _rcu_dereference is const (the
pointer itself is const, IIUC, not necessarily the data it points to),
so the temporary _________p1 is also declared as const.  We therefore
can't pass a non-const pointer to it to a function that modifies it.

I applied the trick found here [1] with success to get rid of the
constness of the variable.  With this change, lttng-tools compiles
successfully with gcc 11.

There may be other spots in the headers where this would be needed, but
it is hard to spot them.  I think we would need to write some test file
that pass const pointers to all macros of the API and see if they
compile.
