[RFC] introduce prepare_to_wait_event()

From: Oleg Nesterov
Date: Tue Oct 01 2013 - 13:08:41 EST


I didn't test is yet, and I did write the changelog.

But let me show the patch for review right now, before we all
forget the details... On top of Peter's "wait: Collapse __wait_event
macros -v4".

This patch moves the signal-pending checks and part of DEFINE_WAIT's
code into the new helper: prepare_to_wait_event().

Yes, sure, prepare_to_wait_event() becomes a little bit slower than
prepare_to_wait/prepare_to_wait_exclusive. But this is the slow path
anyway, we are likely going to sleep. IMO, it is better to shrink
.text, and on my build the difference is

- 5124686 2955056 10117120 18196862 115a97e vmlinux
+ 5123212 2955088 10117120 18195420 115a3dc vmlinux

The code with the patch is

#define ___wait_is_interruptible(state) \
(!__builtin_constant_p(state) || \
state == TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE || state == TASK_KILLABLE) \

#define ___wait_event(wq, condition, state, exclusive, ret, cmd) \
({ \
__label__ __out; \
wait_queue_t __wait; \
long __ret = ret; \
\
INIT_LIST_HEAD(&__wait.task_list); \
if (exclusive) \
__wait.flags = WQ_FLAG_EXCLUSIVE; \
else \
__wait.flags = 0; \
\
for (;;) { \
long intr = prepare_to_wait_event(&wq, &__wait, state); \
\
if (condition) \
break; \
\
if (___wait_is_interruptible(state) && intr) { \
__ret = intr; \
if (exclusive) { \
abort_exclusive_wait(&wq, &__wait, \
state, NULL); \
goto __out; \
} \
break; \
} \
\
cmd; \
} \
finish_wait(&wq, &__wait); \
__out: __ret; \
})

Compiler should optimize out "long intr" if !interruptible/killable.

What do you think?

Oleg.
