  37 // Native Monitor-Mutex locking - theory of operations
  38 //
  39 // * Native Monitors are completely unrelated to Java-level monitors,
  40 //   although the "back-end" slow-path implementations share a common lineage.
  41 //   See objectMonitor:: in synchronizer.cpp.
  42 //   Native Monitors do *not* support nesting or recursion but otherwise
  43 //   they're basically Hoare-flavor monitors.
  44 //
  45 // * A thread acquires ownership of a Monitor/Mutex by CASing the LockByte
  46 //   in the _LockWord from zero to non-zero.  Note that the _Owner field
  47 //   is advisory and is used only to verify that the thread calling unlock()
  48 //   is indeed the last thread to have acquired the lock.
  49 //
  50 // * Contending threads "push" themselves onto the front of the contention
  51 //   queue -- called the cxq -- with CAS and then spin/park.
  52 //   The _LockWord contains the LockByte as well as the pointer to the head
  53 //   of the cxq.  Colocating the LockByte with the cxq precludes certain races.
  54 //
  55 // * Using a separately addressable LockByte allows for CAS:MEMBAR or CAS:0
  56 //   idioms.  We currently use MEMBAR in the uncontended unlock() path, as
  57 //   MEMBAR often has less latency than CAS.  If warranted, we could switch to
  58 //   a CAS:0 mode, using timers to close the resultant race, as is done
  59 //   with Java Monitors in synchronizer.cpp.
  60 //
  61 //   See the following for a discussion of the relative cost of atomics (CAS)
  62 //   MEMBAR, and ways to eliminate such instructions from the common-case paths:
  63 //   -- http://blogs.sun.com/dave/entry/biased_locking_in_hotspot
  64 //   -- http://blogs.sun.com/dave/resource/MustangSync.pdf
  65 //   -- http://blogs.sun.com/dave/resource/synchronization-public2.pdf
  66 //   -- synchronizer.cpp
  67 //
  68 // * Overall goals - desiderata
  69 //   1. Minimize context switching
  70 //   2. Minimize lock migration
  71 //   3. Minimize CPI -- affinity and locality
  72 //   4. Minimize the execution of high-latency instructions such as CAS or MEMBAR
  73 //   5. Minimize outer lock hold times
  74 //   6. Behave gracefully on a loaded system
  75 //
  76 // * Thread flow and list residency:
  77 //
  78 //   Contention queue --> EntryList --> OnDeck --> Owner --> !Owner
  79 //   [..resident on monitor list..]
  80 //   [...........contending..................]
  81 //
  82 //   -- The contention queue (cxq) contains recently-arrived threads (RATs).
  83 //      Threads on the cxq eventually drain into the EntryList.
  84 //   -- Invariant: a thread appears on at most one list -- cxq, EntryList
  85 //      or WaitSet -- at any one time.
  86 //   -- For a given monitor there can be at most one "OnDeck" thread at any
  87 //      given time but if needbe this particular invariant could be relaxed.
  88 //
  89 // * The WaitSet and EntryList linked lists are composed of ParkEvents.
  90 //   I use ParkEvent instead of threads as ParkEvents are immortal and
  91 //   type-stable, meaning we can safely unpark() a possibly stale
  92 //   list element in the unlock()-path.  (That's benign).
  93 //
  94 // * Succession policy - providing for progress:
  95 //
  96 //   As necessary, the unlock()ing thread identifies, unlinks, and unparks
  97 //   an "heir presumptive" tentative successor thread from the EntryList.
  98 //   This becomes the so-called "OnDeck" thread, of which there can be only
  99 //   one at any given time for a given monitor.  The wakee will recontend
 100 //   for ownership of monitor.
 101 //
 102 //   Succession is provided for by a policy of competitive handoff.
 103 //   The exiting thread does _not_ grant or pass ownership to the
 104 //   successor thread.  (This is also referred to as "handoff" succession").
 105 //   Instead the exiting thread releases ownership and possibly wakes
 106 //   a successor, so the successor can (re)compete for ownership of the lock.
 107 //
 108 //   Competitive handoff provides excellent overall throughput at the expense
 109 //   of short-term fairness.  If fairness is a concern then one remedy might
 110 //   be to add an AcquireCounter field to the monitor.  After a thread acquires
 111 //   the lock it will decrement the AcquireCounter field.  When the count
 112 //   reaches 0 the thread would reset the AcquireCounter variable, abdicate
 113 //   the lock directly to some thread on the EntryList, and then move itself to the
 114 //   tail of the EntryList.
 115 //
 116 //   But in practice most threads engage or otherwise participate in resource
 117 //   bounded producer-consumer relationships, so lock domination is not usually
 118 //   a practical concern.  Recall too, that in general it's easier to construct
 119 //   a fair lock from a fast lock, but not vice-versa.
 120 //
 121 // * The cxq can have multiple concurrent "pushers" but only one concurrent
 122 //   detaching thread.  This mechanism is immune from the ABA corruption.
 123 //   More precisely, the CAS-based "push" onto cxq is ABA-oblivious.
 124 //   We use OnDeck as a pseudo-lock to enforce the at-most-one detaching
 125 //   thread constraint.
 126 //
 127 // * Taken together, the cxq and the EntryList constitute or form a
 128 //   single logical queue of threads stalled trying to acquire the lock.
 129 //   We use two distinct lists to reduce heat on the list ends.
 130 //   Threads in lock() enqueue onto cxq while threads in unlock() will
 131 //   dequeue from the EntryList.  (c.f. Michael Scott's "2Q" algorithm).
 132 //   A key desideratum is to minimize queue & monitor metadata manipulation
 133 //   that occurs while holding the "outer" monitor lock -- that is, we want to
 134 //   minimize monitor lock holds times.
 135 //
 136 //   The EntryList is ordered by the prevailing queue discipline and
 137 //   can be organized in any convenient fashion, such as a doubly-linked list or
 138 //   a circular doubly-linked list.  If we need a priority queue then something akin
 139 //   to Solaris' sleepq would work nicely.  Viz.,
 140 //   -- http://agg.eng/ws/on10_nightly/source/usr/src/uts/common/os/sleepq.c.
 141 //   -- http://cvs.opensolaris.org/source/xref/onnv/onnv-gate/usr/src/uts/common/os/sleepq.c
 142 //   Queue discipline is enforced at ::unlock() time, when the unlocking thread
 143 //   drains the cxq into the EntryList, and orders or reorders the threads on the
 144 //   EntryList accordingly.
 145 //
 146 //   Barring "lock barging", this mechanism provides fair cyclic ordering,
 147 //   somewhat similar to an elevator-scan.
 148 //
 149 // * OnDeck
 150 //   --  For a given monitor there can be at most one OnDeck thread at any given
 151 //       instant.  The OnDeck thread is contending for the lock, but has been
 152 //       unlinked from the EntryList and cxq by some previous unlock() operations.
 153 //       Once a thread has been designated the OnDeck thread it will remain so
 154 //       until it manages to acquire the lock -- being OnDeck is a stable property.
 155 //   --  Threads on the EntryList or cxq are _not allowed to attempt lock acquisition.
 156 //   --  OnDeck also serves as an "inner lock" as follows.  Threads in unlock() will, after
 157 //       having cleared the LockByte and dropped the outer lock,  attempt to "trylock"
 158 //       OnDeck by CASing the field from null to non-null.  If successful, that thread
 159 //       is then responsible for progress and succession and can use CAS to detach and
 160 //       drain the cxq into the EntryList.  By convention, only this thread, the holder of
 161 //       the OnDeck inner lock, can manipulate the EntryList or detach and drain the
 162 //       RATs on the cxq into the EntryList.  This avoids ABA corruption on the cxq as
 163 //       we allow multiple concurrent "push" operations but restrict detach concurrency
 164 //       to at most one thread.  Having selected and detached a successor, the thread then
 165 //       changes the OnDeck to refer to that successor, and then unparks the successor.
 166 //       That successor will eventually acquire the lock and clear OnDeck.  Beware
 167 //       that the OnDeck usage as a lock is asymmetric.  A thread in unlock() transiently
 168 //       "acquires" OnDeck, performs queue manipulations, passes OnDeck to some successor,
 169 //       and then the successor eventually "drops" OnDeck.  Note that there's never
 170 //       any sense of contention on the inner lock, however.  Threads never contend
 171 //       or wait for the inner lock.
 172 //   --  OnDeck provides for futile wakeup throttling a described in section 3.3 of
 173 //       See http://www.usenix.org/events/jvm01/full_papers/dice/dice.pdf
 174 //       In a sense, OnDeck subsumes the ObjectMonitor _Succ and ObjectWaiter
 175 //       TState fields found in Java-level objectMonitors.  (See synchronizer.cpp).
 176 //
 177 // * Waiting threads reside on the WaitSet list -- wait() puts
 178 //   the caller onto the WaitSet.  Notify() or notifyAll() simply
 179 //   transfers threads from the WaitSet to either the EntryList or cxq.
 180 //   Subsequent unlock() operations will eventually unpark the notifyee.
 181 //   Unparking a notifee in notify() proper is inefficient - if we were to do so
 182 //   it's likely the notifyee would simply impale itself on the lock held
 183 //   by the notifier.
 184 //
 185 // * The mechanism is obstruction-free in that if the holder of the transient
 186 //   OnDeck lock in unlock() is preempted or otherwise stalls, other threads
 187 //   can still acquire and release the outer lock and continue to make progress.
 188 //   At worst, waking of already blocked contending threads may be delayed,
 189 //   but nothing worse.  (We only use "trylock" operations on the inner OnDeck
 190 //   lock).
 191 //
 192 // * Note that thread-local storage must be initialized before a thread
 193 //   uses Native monitors or mutexes.  The native monitor-mutex subsystem
 194 //   depends on Thread::current().
 195 //
 196 // * The monitor synchronization subsystem avoids the use of native
 197 //   synchronization primitives except for the narrow platform-specific
 198 //   park-unpark abstraction.  See the comments in os_solaris.cpp regarding
 199 //   the semantics of park-unpark.  Put another way, this monitor implementation
 200 //   depends only on atomic operations and park-unpark.  The monitor subsystem
 201 //   manages all RUNNING->BLOCKED and BLOCKED->READY transitions while the
 202 //   underlying OS manages the READY<->RUN transitions.
 203 //
 204 // * The memory consistency model provide by lock()-unlock() is at least as
 205 //   strong or stronger than the Java Memory model defined by JSR-133.
 206 //   That is, we guarantee at least entry consistency, if not stronger.
 207 //   See http://g.oswego.edu/dl/jmm/cookbook.html.
 208 //
 209 // * Thread:: currently contains a set of purpose-specific ParkEvents:
 210 //   _MutexEvent, _ParkEvent, etc.  A better approach might be to do away with
 211 //   the purpose-specific ParkEvents and instead implement a general per-thread
 212 //   stack of available ParkEvents which we could provision on-demand.  The
 213 //   stack acts as a local cache to avoid excessive calls to ParkEvent::Allocate()
 214 //   and ::Release().  A thread would simply pop an element from the local stack before it
 215 //   enqueued or park()ed.  When the contention was over the thread would
 216 //   push the no-longer-needed ParkEvent back onto its stack.
 217 //
 218 // * A slightly reduced form of ILock() and IUnlock() have been partially
 219 //   model-checked (Murphi) for safety and progress at T=1,2,3 and 4.
 220 //   It'd be interesting to see if TLA/TLC could be useful as well.
 221 //
 222 // * Mutex-Monitor is a low-level "leaf" subsystem.  That is, the monitor
 223 //   code should never call other code in the JVM that might itself need to
 224 //   acquire monitors or mutexes.  That's true *except* in the case of the
 225 //   ThreadBlockInVM state transition wrappers.  The ThreadBlockInVM DTOR handles
 226 //   mutator reentry (ingress) by checking for a pending safepoint in which case it will
 227 //   call SafepointSynchronize::block(), which in turn may call Safepoint_lock->lock(), etc.
 228 //   In that particular case a call to lock() for a given Monitor can end up recursively
 229 //   calling lock() on another monitor.   While distasteful, this is largely benign
 230 //   as the calls come from jacket that wraps lock(), and not from deep within lock() itself.
 231 //
 232 //   It's unfortunate that native mutexes and thread state transitions were convolved.
 233 //   They're really separate concerns and should have remained that way.  Melding
 234 //   them together was facile -- a bit too facile.   The current implementation badly
 235 //   conflates the two concerns.
 236 //
 237 // * TODO-FIXME:
 238 //
 239 //   -- Add DTRACE probes for contended acquire, contended acquired, contended unlock
 240 //      We should also add DTRACE probes in the ParkEvent subsystem for
 241 //      Park-entry, Park-exit, and Unpark.
 242 //
 243 //   -- We have an excess of mutex-like constructs in the JVM, namely:
 244 //      1. objectMonitors for Java-level synchronization (synchronizer.cpp)
 245 //      2. low-level muxAcquire and muxRelease
 246 //      3. low-level spinAcquire and spinRelease

 858 // ON THE VMTHREAD SNEAKING PAST HELD LOCKS:
 859 // In particular, there are certain types of global lock that may be held
 860 // by a Java thread while it is blocked at a safepoint but before it has
 861 // written the _owner field. These locks may be sneakily acquired by the
 862 // VM thread during a safepoint to avoid deadlocks. Alternatively, one should
 863 // identify all such locks, and ensure that Java threads never block at
 864 // safepoints while holding them (_no_safepoint_check_flag). While it
 865 // seems as though this could increase the time to reach a safepoint
 866 // (or at least increase the mean, if not the variance), the latter
 867 // approach might make for a cleaner, more maintainable JVM design.
 868 //
 869 // Sneaking is vile and reprehensible and should be excised at the 1st
 870 // opportunity.  It's possible that the need for sneaking could be obviated
 871 // as follows.  Currently, a thread might (a) while TBIVM, call pthread_mutex_lock
 872 // or ILock() thus acquiring the "physical" lock underlying Monitor/Mutex.
 873 // (b) stall at the TBIVM exit point as a safepoint is in effect.  Critically,
 874 // it'll stall at the TBIVM reentry state transition after having acquired the
 875 // underlying lock, but before having set _owner and having entered the actual
 876 // critical section.  The lock-sneaking facility leverages that fact and allowed the
 877 // VM thread to logically acquire locks that had already be physically locked by mutators
 878 // but where mutators were known blocked by the reentry thread state transition.
 879 //
 880 // If we were to modify the Monitor-Mutex so that TBIVM state transitions tightly
 881 // wrapped calls to park(), then we could likely do away with sneaking.  We'd
 882 // decouple lock acquisition and parking.  The critical invariant  to eliminating
 883 // sneaking is to ensure that we never "physically" acquire the lock while TBIVM.
 884 // An easy way to accomplish this is to wrap the park calls in a narrow TBIVM jacket.
 885 // One difficulty with this approach is that the TBIVM wrapper could recurse and
 886 // call lock() deep from within a lock() call, while the MutexEvent was already enqueued.
 887 // Using a stack (N=2 at minimum) of ParkEvents would take care of that problem.
 888 //
 889 // But of course the proper ultimate approach is to avoid schemes that require explicit
 890 // sneaking or dependence on any any clever invariants or subtle implementation properties
 891 // of Mutex-Monitor and instead directly address the underlying design flaw.
