[LLVMdev] multithreaded performance disaster with -fprofile-instr-generate (contention on profile counters)
Hi, The current design of -fprofile-instr-generate has the same fundamental flaw as the old gcc's gcov instrumentation: it has contention on counters. A trivial synthetic test case was described here: http://lists.cs.uiuc.edu/pipermail/llvmdev/2013-October/066116.html For the problem to appear we need to have a hot function that is simultaneously executed by multiple threads -- then we will have high contention on the racy profile counters. Such situation is not necessary very frequent, but when it happens -fprofile-instr-generate becomes barely usable due to huge slowdown (5x-10x) An example is the multi-threaded vp9 video encoder. git clone https://chromium.googlesource.com/webm/libvpx cd libvpx/ F="-no-integrated-as -fprofile-instr-generate"; CC="clang $F" CXX="clang++ $F" LD="clang++ $F" ./configure make -j32 # get sample video from from https://media.xiph.org/video/derf/y4m/akiyo_cif.y4m time ./vpxenc -o /dev/null -j 8 akiyo_cif.y4m When running single-threaded, -fprofile-instr-generate adds reasonable ~15% overhead (8.5 vs 10 seconds) When running with 8 threads, it has 7x overhead (3.5 seconds vs 26 seconds). I am not saying that this flaw is a showstopper, but with the continued move towards multithreading it will be hurting more and more users of coverage and PGO. AFAICT, most of our PGO users simply can not run their software in single-threaded mode, and some of them surely have hot functions running in all threads at once. At the very least we should document this problem, but better try fixing it. Some ideas: - per-thread counters. Solves the problem at huge cost in RAM per-thread - 8-bit per-thread counters, dumping into central counters on overflow. - per-cpu counters (not portable, requires very modern kernel with lots of patches) - sharded counters: each counter represented as N counters sitting in different cache lines. Every thread accesses the counter with index TID%N. Solves the problem partially, better with larger values of N, but then again it costs RAM. - reduce contention on hot counters by not incrementing them if they are big enough: {if (counter < 65536) counter++}; This reduces the accuracy though. Is that bad for PGO? - self-cooling logarithmic counters: if ((fast_random() % (1 << counter)) == 0) counter++; Other thoughts? --kcc -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

If accuracy is not critical, incrementing the counters without any guards might be good enough. Hot areas will still be hot and cold areas will not be affected.

[LLVMdev] multithreaded performance disaster with -fprofile-instr-generate (contention on profile counters)
Having thought a bit about the best strategy to solve this, I think we should use a tradeoff of memory to reduce contention. I don't really like any of the other options as much, if we can get that one to work. Here is my specific suggestion: On Thu, Apr 17, 2014 at 5:21 AM, Kostya Serebryany <kcc at google.com> wrote:> - per-cpu counters (not portable, requires very modern kernel with lots of > patches) > - sharded counters: each counter represented as N counters sitting in > different cache lines.

At an abstract level, I think we should design the profiling to support up to N shards of counters. I think we should have a dynamic number of shards if possible. The goal here is that if you never need multiple shards (single threaded) you pay essentially zero cost. I would have a global number of shards that changes rarely, and re-compute it on entry to each function with something along the lines of: if (thread-ID != main's thread-ID && shard_count == 1) { shard_count = std::min(MAX, std::max(NUMBER_OF_THREADS, NUMBER_OF_CORES)); // if shard_count changed with this, we can also call a library routine here that does the work of allocating the actual extra shards. } MAX is a fixed cap so even on systems with 100s of cores we don't do something silly. NUBER_OF_THREADS, if supported on the OS, can limit the shards when we only have a small number of threads in the program. NUMBER_OF_CORES, if supported on the OS, can limit the shards. If we don't have the number of threads, we just use the number of cores. If we don't have the number of cores, we can just guess 8 (or something). Then, we can gracefully fall back on the following strategies to pick an index into the shards: - Per-core non-atomic counter updates (if we support them) using restartable sequences - Use a core-ID as the index into the shards to statistically minimize the contention, and do the increments atomically so it remains correct even if the core-ID load happens before a core migration and the counter increment occurs afterward - Use (thread-ID % number of cores) if we don't have support for getting a core-ID from the target OS. This will still have a reasonable distribution I suspect, even if not perfect. Finally, I wouldn't merge on shutdown if possible. I would just write larger raw profile data for multithreaded runs, and let the profdata tool merge them. If this is still too much memory, then I would suggest doing the above, but doing it independently for each function so that only those functions actually called via multithreaded code end up sharding their counters. I think this would be reasonably straightforward to implement, not significantly grow the cost of single-threaded instrumentation, and largely mitigate the contention on the counters. It can benefit from advanced hooks into the OS when those are available, but seems pretty easy to implement on roughly any OS with reasonable tradeoffs. The only really hard requirement is the ability to get a thread-id, but I think that is fairly reasonable (C++ even makes this essentially mandatory).

Good thinking, but why do you think runtime selection of shard count is better than compile time selection? For single threaded apps, shard count is always 1, so why paying the penalty to check thread id each time function is entered? For multi-threaded apps, I would expect MAX to be smaller than NUM_OF_CORES to avoid excessive memory consumption, then you always end up with N =MAX. If MAX is larger than NUM_OF_CORES, for large MT apps, the # of threads tends to be larger than NUM_OF_CORES, so it also ends up with N =MAX. For rare cases, the shard count may switch between MAX and NUM_OF_CORES, but you also pay the penalty to reallocate/memcpy counter arrays each time it changes. Making N non compile time constant also makes the indexing more expensive. Of course we can ignore thread migration and do CSE on it.
