Use rcu_read_lock to read p->event_idr concurrently with other readers and writers. Use p->event_mutex only for creating and destroying events and in kfd_wait_on_events. Protect the contents of the kfd_event structure with a per-event spinlock that can be taken inside the rcu_read_lock critical section. This eliminates contention of p->event_mutex in set_event, which tends to be on the critical path for dispatch latency even when busy waiting is used. It also eliminates lock contention in event interrupt handlers. Since the p->event_mutex is now used much less, the impact of requiring it in kfd_wait_on_events should also be much smaller. This should improve event handling latency for processes using multiple GPUs concurrently. v2: Reschedule the worker periodically to avoid soft lockup warnings Signed-off-by: Felix Kuehling <Felix.Kuehling@amd.com> Reviewed-by: Sean Keely <Sean.Keely@amd.com> # v1 Tested-by: Sanjay Tripathi <sanjay.tripathi@amd.com> Signed-off-by: Alex Deucher <alexander.deucher@amd.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
