Both mutexes and rwsems took a performance hit when we switched over from the original mcs code to the cancelable variant (osq). The reason being the use of smp_load_acquire() when polling for node->locked. This is not needed as reordering is not an issue, as such, relax the barrier semantics. Paul describes the scenario nicely: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/11/19/405 - If we start polling before the insertion is complete, all that happens is that the first few polls have no chance of seeing a lock grant. - Ordering the polling against the initialization -- the above xchg() is already doing that for us. The smp_load_acquire() when unqueuing make sense. In addition, we don't need to worry about leaking the critical region as osq is only used internally. This impacts both regular and large levels of concurrency, ie on a 40 core system with a disk intensive workload: disk-1 804.83 ( 0.00%) 828.16 ( 2.90%) disk-61 8063.45 ( 0.00%) 18181.82 (125.48%) disk-121 7187.41 ( 0.00%) 20119.17 (179.92%) disk-181 6933.32 ( 0.00%) 20509.91 (195.82%) disk-241 6850.81 ( 0.00%) 20397.80 (197.74%) disk-301 6815.22 ( 0.00%) 20287.58 (197.68%) disk-361 7080.40 ( 0.00%) 20205.22 (185.37%) disk-421 7076.13 ( 0.00%) 19957.33 (182.04%) disk-481 7083.25 ( 0.00%) 19784.06 (179.31%) disk-541 7038.39 ( 0.00%) 19610.92 (178.63%) disk-601 7072.04 ( 0.00%) 19464.53 (175.23%) disk-661 7010.97 ( 0.00%) 19348.23 (175.97%) disk-721 7069.44 ( 0.00%) 19255.33 (172.37%) disk-781 7007.58 ( 0.00%) 19103.14 (172.61%) disk-841 6981.18 ( 0.00%) 18964.22 (171.65%) disk-901 6968.47 ( 0.00%) 18826.72 (170.17%) disk-961 6964.61 ( 0.00%) 18708.02 (168.62%) Signed-off-by: Davidlohr Bueso <dbueso@suse.de> Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: "Paul E.
