Add extended urcu model with ooo mem and instruction scheduling

Here is the new model I worked on for the past weeks. It models :

- out-of-order memory accesses.
- instruction scheduling by the CPU on the write and read sides.

The model as committed in the repository at

formal-model/urcu-controldataflow

models the urcu with memory barriers on the read-side. It works exactly
as expected. mb() on the read-side is enabled when we have this in
the DEFINES file :

//#define REMOTE_BARRIERS   (commented out)

To run all tests, just fire :

make
(with spin 5.1.7 here. 5.2.0 has a bug with arrays of size 1)

Verification summary
asserts.log:State-vector 64 byte, depth reached 2801, errors: 0
urcu_free.log:State-vector 88 byte, depth reached 3302, errors: 0
urcu_free_no_mb.log:State-vector 88 byte, depth reached 24407, errors: 1
urcu_free_single_flip.log:State-vector 88 byte, depth reached 2904, errors: 1

urcu_progress_writer.log:State-vector 80 byte, depth reached 3348, errors: 0

However, I still have a problem modeling the signal-based barriers.

(remove comment from the define)

make urcu_free_single_flip should generate an error (just like it does
with the reader-mb() case), but it does not. I think it's caused by
added serialization due to the writer waiting on the reader barriers.

Normally, this model should behave similarly to yours : it should honor
the barrier requests before each read-side instruction IIF the
instruction execution order is in program order.

I'm pretty sure I missed something obvious, but I think it's time I
share the model I have with you so you might help me spot what I missed.
It may be as simple as an incorrect instruction scheduling dependency
too.

15 years agoFix opensuse powerpc build
Steven Munroe [Tue, 19 May 2009 17:14:53 +0000 (13:14 -0400)] 
Fix opensuse powerpc build

I gave this code a spin on a G5 (PPC970) OpenSuse 10.3 system and
encountered same issues that should fix fot tyou next update.

The liburcu make system sis not set up for biarch (32-/64-bit) builds on
PPC. SLES10/OpenSUSE-10.3 is a default 32-bit, 64-bit capable system. To
build a 64-bit you need to insert -m64 for all compiles and link
operations. Also for 64-bit make install should move liburcu.so
to /usr/lib64 not /usr/lib. This is required to FSB complience. Is
worked around this by copying Makefile to Makefile64 and made the
required changes there.

For SLES11 we changed to to a 64-bit default and 32-bit capable system.
In either case you need to be able to build both 32-/64-bit liburcu.so
on same systems and need to insure that make install is appropriate.

Also I found that __SIZEOF_LONG__ was not defined and resulted in a
sigill on PPC64. I suspect this is XLC specific and you need solution
that works for GCC builds as well.

I have attached a patch that implement these change for your review.
With this patch I can build liburcu and run the tests successfully.

Finally when I build 32-bit (default for OpenSUSE 10) I get a unhandled
SIGUSER1. I ran out of weekend before I could figure that out.

As promised, here is a new model :-) So far the results are very good.

Basically, I model the dependencies between the instructions using a SSA
assignment. It behaves a bit like a Petri network, passing tokens
between the "instructions". When instructions have multiple dependencies
as input, they wait for all their input tokens to be ready before they
execute. It assumes we have an infinite number of registers available to
hold the variables, given this is an "abstract" architecture.
