An over-committed guest with more vCPUs than pCPUs has a heavy overload in osq_lock(). This is because if vCPU-A holds the osq lock and yields out, vCPU-B ends up waiting for per_cpu node->locked to be set. IOW, vCPU-B waits for vCPU-A to run and unlock the osq lock. Use the new vcpu_is_preempted(cpu) interface to detect if a vCPU is currently running or not, and break out of the spin-loop if so. test case: $ perf record -a perf bench sched messaging -g 400 -p && perf report before patch: 18.09% sched-messaging [kernel.vmlinux] [k] osq_lock 12.28% sched-messaging [kernel.vmlinux] [k] rwsem_spin_on_owner 5.27% sched-messaging [kernel.vmlinux] [k] mutex_unlock 3.89% sched-messaging [kernel.vmlinux] [k] wait_consider_task 3.64% sched-messaging [kernel.vmlinux] [k] _raw_write_lock_irq 3.41% sched-messaging [kernel.vmlinux] [k] mutex_spin_on_owner.is 2.49% sched-messaging [kernel.vmlinux] [k] system_call after patch: 20.68% sched-messaging [kernel.vmlinux] [k] mutex_spin_on_owner 8.45% sched-messaging [kernel.vmlinux] [k] mutex_unlock 4.12% sched-messaging [kernel.vmlinux] [k] system_call 3.01% sched-messaging [kernel.vmlinux] [k] system_call_common 2.83% sched-messaging [kernel.vmlinux] [k] copypage_power7 2.64% sched-messaging [kernel.vmlinux] [k] rwsem_spin_on_owner 2.00% sched-messaging [kernel.vmlinux] [k] osq_lock Suggested-by: Boqun Feng <boqun.feng@gmail.com> Tested-by: Juergen Gross <jgross@suse.com> Signed-off-by: Pan Xinhui <xinhui.pan@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Acked-by: Christian Borntraeger <borntraeger@de.ibm.com> Acked-by: Paolo Bonzini <pbonzini@redhat.com> Cc: David.Laight@ACULAB.COM Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: benh@kernel.crashing.org Cc: bsingharora@gmail.com Cc: dave@stgolabs.net Cc: kernellwp@gmail.com Cc: konrad.wilk@oracle.com Cc: linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org Cc: mpe@ellerman.id.au Cc: paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com Cc: paulus@samba.org Cc: rkrcmar@redhat.com Cc: virtualization@lists.linux-foundation.org Cc: will.deacon@arm.com Cc: xen-devel-request@lists.xenproject.org Cc: xen-devel@lists.xenproject.org Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1478077718-37424-3-git-send-email-xinhui.pan@linux.vnet.ibm.com [ Translated to English. ] Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
