With the use of wake_q, we can do task wakeups without holding the wait_lock. There is one exception in the rwsem code, though. It is when the writer in the slowpath detects that there are waiters ahead but the rwsem is not held by a writer. This can lead to a long wait_lock hold time especially when a large number of readers are to be woken up. Remediate this situation by releasing the wait_lock before waking up tasks and re-acquiring it afterward. The rwsem_try_write_lock() function is also modified to read the rwsem count directly to avoid stale count value.

/*
|
|
* Wake-queues are lists of tasks with a pending wakeup, whose
|
|
* callers have already marked the task as woken internally,
|
|
* and can thus carry on. A common use case is being able to
|
|
* do the wakeups once the corresponding user lock as been
|
|
* released.
|
|
*
|
|
* We hold reference to each task in the list across the wakeup,
|
|
* thus guaranteeing that the memory is still valid by the time
|
|
* the actual wakeups are performed in wake_up_q().
|
|
*
|
|
* One per task suffices, because there's never a need for a task to be
|
|
* in two wake queues simultaneously; it is forbidden to abandon a task
|
|
* in a wake queue (a call to wake_up_q() _must_ follow), so if a task is
|
|
* already in a wake queue, the wakeup will happen soon and the second
|
|
* waker can just skip it.
|
|
*
|
|
* The DEFINE_WAKE_Q macro declares and initializes the list head.
|
|
* wake_up_q() does NOT reinitialize the list; it's expected to be
|
|
* called near the end of a function. Otherwise, the list can be
|
|
* re-initialized for later re-use by wake_q_init().
|
|
*
|
|
* NOTE that this can cause spurious wakeups. schedule() callers
|
|
* must ensure the call is done inside a loop, confirming that the
|
|
* wakeup condition has in fact occurred.
|
|
*
|
|
* NOTE that there is no guarantee the wakeup will happen any later than the
|
|
* wake_q_add() location. Therefore task must be ready to be woken at the
|
|
* location of the wake_q_add().
