wait: prevent exclusive waiter starvation With exclusive waiters, every process woken up through the wait queue must ensure that the next waiter down the line is woken when it has finished.

Add wait_on_atomic_t() and wake_up_atomic_t() Add wait_on_atomic_t() and wake_up_atomic_t() to indicate became-zero events on atomic_t types. This uses the bit-wake waitqueue table. The key is set to a value outside of the number of bits in a long so that wait_on_bit() won't be woken up accidentally. What I'm using this for is: in a following patch I add a counter to struct fscache_cookie to count the number of outstanding operations that need access to netfs data. The way this works is: (1) When a cookie is allocated, the counter is initialised to 1. (2) When an operation wants to access netfs data, it calls atomic_inc_unless() to increment the counter before it does so. If it was 0, then the counter isn't incremented, the operation isn't permitted to access the netfs data (which might by this point no longer exist) and the operation aborts in some appropriate manner. (3) When an operation finishes with the netfs data, it decrements the counter and if it reaches 0, calls wake_up_atomic_t() on it - the assumption being that it was the last blocker. (4) When a cookie is released, the counter is decremented and the releaser uses wait_on_atomic_t() to wait for the counter to become 0 - which should indicate no one is using the netfs data any longer. The netfs data can then be destroyed. There are some alternatives that I have thought of and that have been suggested by Tejun Heo: (A) Using wait_on_bit() to wait on a bit in the counter. This doesn't work because if that bit happens to be 0 then the wait won't happen - even if the counter is non-zero. (B) Using wait_on_bit() to wait on a flag elsewhere which is cleared when the counter reaches 0. Such a flag would be redundant and would add complexity. (C) Adding a waitqueue to fscache_cookie - this would expand that struct by several words for an event that happens just once in each cookie's lifetime. Further, cookies are generally per-file so there are likely to be a lot of them. (D) Similar to (C), but add a pointer to a waitqueue in the cookie instead of a waitqueue. This would add single word per cookie and so would be less of an expansion - but still an expansion. (E) Adding a static waitqueue to the fscache module. Generally this would be fine, but under certain circumstances many cookies will all get added at the same time (eg. NFS umount, cache withdrawal) thereby presenting scaling issues. Note that the wait may be significant as disk I/O may be in progress. So, I think reusing the wait_on_bit() waitqueue set is reasonable. I don't make much use of the waitqueue I need on a per-cookie basis, but sometimes I have a huge flood of the cookies to deal with. I also don't want to add a whole new set of global waitqueue tables specifically for the dec-to-0 event if I can reuse the bit tables.

Add wait_on_atomic_t() and wake_up_atomic_t() Add wait_on_atomic_t() and wake_up_atomic_t() to indicate became-zero events on atomic_t types. This uses the bit-wake waitqueue table. The key is set to a value outside of the number of bits in a long so that wait_on_bit() won't be woken up accidentally. What I'm using this for is: in a following patch I add a counter to struct fscache_cookie to count the number of outstanding operations that need access to netfs data. The way this works is: (1) When a cookie is allocated, the counter is initialised to 1. (2) When an operation wants to access netfs data, it calls atomic_inc_unless() to increment the counter before it does so. If it was 0, then the counter isn't incremented, the operation isn't permitted to access the netfs data (which might by this point no longer exist) and the operation aborts in some appropriate manner. (3) When an operation finishes with the netfs data, it decrements the counter and if it reaches 0, calls wake_up_atomic_t() on it - the assumption being that it was the last blocker. (4) When a cookie is released, the counter is decremented and the releaser uses wait_on_atomic_t() to wait for the counter to become 0 - which should indicate no one is using the netfs data any longer. The netfs data can then be destroyed. There are some alternatives that I have thought of and that have been suggested by Tejun Heo: (A) Using wait_on_bit() to wait on a bit in the counter. This doesn't work because if that bit happens to be 0 then the wait won't happen - even if the counter is non-zero. (B) Using wait_on_bit() to wait on a flag elsewhere which is cleared when the counter reaches 0. Such a flag would be redundant and would add complexity. (C) Adding a waitqueue to fscache_cookie - this would expand that struct by several words for an event that happens just once in each cookie's lifetime. Further, cookies are generally per-file so there are likely to be a lot of them. (D) Similar to (C), but add a pointer to a waitqueue in the cookie instead of a waitqueue. This would add single word per cookie and so would be less of an expansion - but still an expansion. (E) Adding a static waitqueue to the fscache module. Generally this would be fine, but under certain circumstances many cookies will all get added at the same time (eg. NFS umount, cache withdrawal) thereby presenting scaling issues. Note that the wait may be significant as disk I/O may be in progress. So, I think reusing the wait_on_bit() waitqueue set is reasonable. I don't make much use of the waitqueue I need on a per-cookie basis, but sometimes I have a huge flood of the cookies to deal with. I also don't want to add a whole new set of global waitqueue tables specifically for the dec-to-0 event if I can reuse the bit tables.
