- x86 split_lock: Enable split lock detection by kernel - LWN. net
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead org> A split-lock occurs when an atomic instruction operates on data that spans two cache lines In order to maintain atomicity the core takes a global bus lock
- 22. Bus lock detection and handling - The Linux Kernel Archives
A split lock is any atomic operation whose operand crosses two cache lines Since the operand spans two cache lines and the operation must be atomic, the system locks the bus while the CPU accesses the two cache lines
- x86 - does atomic operation (c++) freeze cpu - Stack Overflow
x86 allows writing unaligned data that spans across two cache lines (i e across two 64 byte chunks), but the result is not guaranteed to be atomic This means you may read 8 Byte from addr 0x1003c for e g , requiring the CPU to fetch 2 lines ( 0x10000 and 0x10040 ), taking the relevant 4-byte chunks and stitching them together
- Cache Coherence and Atomic Operations in Hardware
Cache Coherence and Atomic Operations in Hardware Previously, we introduced multi-core parallelism — Today we’ll look at 2 things: 1 Cache coherence 2 Instruction support for synchronization — And some pitfalls of parallelization — And solve a few mysteries Intel Core i7
- LKML: Luck, Tony: [PATCH v16] x86 split_lock: Enable split lock . . .
A split-lock occurs when an atomic instruction operates on data that spans two cache lines In order to maintain atomicity the core takes a global bus lock This is typically >1000 cycles slower than an atomic operation within a cache line It also disrupts performance on other cores (which must wait for the bus lock to be released before their
- Is incrementing an int effectively atomic in specific cases?
(If a locked instruction operates on memory that spans two cache lines, it takes a lot more work to make sure the changes to both parts of the object stay atomic as they propagate to all observers, so no observer can see tearing The CPU might have to lock the whole memory bus until the data hits memory
- The Linux Kernel Will Be Able To Detect Split-Locks To Then Warn Or . . .
Split locks are when an atomic instruction operates on data spanning multiple cache lines Due to the atomic nature, a global bus lock is needed when working on two cache lines and that in turn causes a big performance hit for the overall system performance
- The Linux Kernel Archives
Since the operand spans two cache lines and the operation must be atomic, the system locks the bus while the CPU accesses the two cache lines A bus lock is acquired through either split locked access to writeback (WB) memory or any locked access to non-WB memory
- In-depth analysis of split locks, i++ can lead to disaster
split lock is an atomic operation where the operand spans two cache lines bus lock can be generated in two cases, either split lock for writeback memory, or any lock operation for non-writeback memory
- What is the true cost performance of atomic operations? - ETH Z
Each atomic fetches and modifies a given cache line (“read-modify-write”) We predict that an atomic first issues a read for ownership in order to fetch the respective cache line and invalidate the cache line copies in other caches Then the operation is executed and the result is written in a modified state to the local L1 cache
