Right now we're using a DWCAS to atomically set the running_mask while being constrained by the thread_mask. This DWCAS is annoying because we may seriously need it later when adding support for thread groups, for checking that the running_mask applies to the correct group. It turns out that the DWCAS is not strictly necessary because we never need it to set the thread_mask based on the running_mask, only the other way around. And in fact, the running_mask is always cleared alone, and the thread_mask is changed alone as well. The running_mask is only relevant to indicate a takeover when the thread_mask matches it. Any bit set in running and not present in thread_mask indicates a transition in progress. As such, it is possible to re-arrange this by using a regular CAS around a consistency check between running_mask and thread_mask in fd_update_events and by making a CAS on running_mask then an atomic store on the thread_mask in fd_takeover(). The only other case is fd_delete() but that one already sets the running_mask before clearing the thread_mask, which is compatible with the consistency check above. This change has happily survived 10 billion takeovers on a 16-thread machine at 800k requests/s. The fd-migration doc was updated to reflect this change. |
