spinlock 的很多线程抢占时的性能优化,补充 pthread mutex 和 f

微博里面看到有人说spinlock线程比较多在以前抢占锁时性能比价差。因为之前搜索过c++了spinlock,大多解决办法就是 那种指数的规避的办法咯,就是如果实在不行,就先让cpu指数的等待时间空转几次,实在还是拿不到锁在休眠。

微博里面看到有人说spinlock线程比较多在以前抢占锁时性能比价差。因为之前搜索过c++了spinlock,大多解决办法就是 那种指数的规避的办法咯,就是如果实在不行,就先让cpu指数的等待时间空转几次,实在还是拿不到锁在休眠。可以去看nginx的 core 代码的spinlock文件的实现。像那些boost的spinlock也差不多大,之前说过了。 这样很多个线程都在抢那个锁的时候,不至于都在那里忙等,比较好一点。

在网上搜索一下 “spinlock Exponential Backoff”  应该就可以找到相关资料了。

不过 “spinlock Exponential Backoff”  也还是不够好,呵呵,所以有人又搞了 queue lock。 就是大家不要抢咯,一个个排队来拿锁了。应该是这样吧?  就是少了争抢的。我最讨厌那种饭堂吃饭不排队的人了,大家都在那里抢,谁都吃不到,呵呵

去网上搜索应该可以找到资料吧。“Anderson Queue Lock” “CLH Queue Lock”  还是什么的。

下面这篇文章里面都有提到上面那些知识的,可以先去看一下下面这个。

Spin Locks and Contention  By Guy Kalinski

========================================================

大家很喜欢那spinlock和  mutex 来比较,我个人也是比较喜欢spinlock一点,可能linux内核代码看多了,总是觉得spinlock性能要好。不过这应该分场合,如果按照下面这个。

比如这篇 Pthreads并行编程之spin lock与mutex性能对比分析

Fast Userspace Mutexes   

用户使用futex的时候,大多的锁操作都是在用户操作里面进行的,不用进入内核,所以性能很好吧。然后有碰到大家都在竞争这个锁的时候,才通过futex系统调用进入内核,内核就会把竞争者做个排队,放到队列里面去。然后唤醒的时候,从队列里面依次唤醒。

看来 “排队”是解决“拥挤”(锁竞争)的好办法啊。

根据futex的实现,如果锁竞争不激烈,大多的操作都是在用户级完成的(也是那些原子汇编指令吧),这个跟spinlock应该没有太多的区别,两者 性能不会相差的太大。 两者的区别是futex碰到竞争马上会进入内核去排队,而spinlock会忙等一会在那里重试,然后指数级的等待时间都不到,到了一个固定的 timeout之后才主动的让内核有切换的机会。这两种办法有各自的优点吧,很难说哪个更好一些。不过两种不同的办法,初略看来是会导致一点不同的区 别,futex那种进入内核线程“排队”的做法应该是可以保证各个线程的公平性的,spinlock这种嘛应该是不能保证线程的公平性的,如果有一个线程 一直在那里循环很快的拿锁然后释放可能大多时间都会被他抢去了,其他的线程可能很难抢到锁,导致“饥饿”状态。

这篇文章主要将使用futex的进程意外退出的时候,怎么快速恢复锁的状态,不能拿锁,然后又挂了,别人也没法用了。 不过开始的对futex的介绍还是写的挺好的。

  11A futex is in essence a user-space address, e.g. a 32-bit lock variable

  12field. If userspace notices contention (the lock is already owned and

  13someone else wants to grab it too) then the lock is marked with a value

  14that says "there's a waiter pending", and the sys_futex(FUTEX_WAIT)

  15syscall is used to wait for the other guy to release it. The kernel

  16creates a 'futex queue' internally, so that it can later on match up the

  17waiter with the waker - without them having to know about each other.

  18When the owner thread releases the futex, it notices (via the variable

  19value) that there were waiter(s) pending, and does the

  20sys_futex(FUTEX_WAKE) syscall to wake them up.  Once all waiters have

  21taken and released the lock, the futex is again back to 'uncontended'

  22state, and there's no in-kernel state associated with it. The kernel

  23completely forgets that there ever was a futex at that address. This

  24method makes futexes very lightweight and scalable.
