Subject[PATCH v7 00/11] implement vcpu preempted check
Date
change from v6:
fix typos and remove uncessary comments.
change from v5:
spilt x86/kvm patch into guest/host part.
introduce kvm_write_guest_offset_cached.
fix some typos.
rebase patch onto 4.9.2
change from v4:
spilt x86 kvm vcpu preempted check into two patches.
add documentation patch.
add x86 vcpu preempted check patch under xen
add s390 vcpu preempted check patch
change from v3:
add x86 vcpu preempted check patch
change from v2:
no code change, fix typos, update some comments
change from v1:
a simplier definition of default vcpu_is_preempted
skip mahcine type check on ppc, and add config. remove dedicated macro.
add one patch to drop overload of rwsem_spin_on_owner and mutex_spin_on_owner.
add more comments
thanks boqun and Peter's suggestion.

This patch set aims to fix lock holder preemption issues.

test-case:
perf record -a perf bench sched messaging -g 400 -p && perf report

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

We introduce interface bool vcpu_is_preempted(int cpu) and use it in some spin
loops of osq_lock, rwsem_spin_on_owner and mutex_spin_on_owner.
These spin_on_onwer variant also cause rcu stall before we apply this patch set

We also have observed some performace improvements in uninx benchmark tests.

PPC test result:
1 copy - 0.94%
2 copy - 7.17%
4 copy - 11.9%
8 copy - 3.04%
16 copy - 15.11%
