When benchmarking with multiple threads (-pN, where N>1), we start
contending on single atomic counter that both BPF trigger benchmarks are
using, as well as "baseline" tests in user space (trig-base and
trig-uprobe-base benchmarks). As such, we start bottlenecking on
something completely irrelevant to benchmark at hand.
Scale counting up by using per-CPU counters on BPF side. On use space
side we do the next best thing: hash thread ID to approximate per-CPU
behavior. It seems to work quite well in practice.
To demonstrate the difference, I ran three benchmarks with 1, 2, 4, 8,
16, and 32 threads:
- trig-uprobe-base (no syscalls, pure tight counting loop in user-space);
- trig-base (get_pgid() syscall, atomic counter in user-space);
- trig-fentry (syscall to trigger fentry program, atomic uncontended per-CPU
counter on BPF side).
Command used:
for b in uprobe-base base fentry; do \
for p in 1 2 4 8 16 32; do \
printf "%-11s %2d: %s\n" $b $p \
"$(sudo ./bench -w2 -d5 -a -p$p trig-$b | tail -n1 | cut -d'(' -f1 | cut -d' ' -f3-)"; \
done; \
done
Before these changes, aggregate throughput across all threads doesn't
scale well with number of threads, it actually even falls sharply for
uprobe-base due to a very high contention:
uprobe-base 1: 138.998 ± 0.650M/s
uprobe-base 2: 70.526 ± 1.147M/s
uprobe-base 4: 63.114 ± 0.302M/s

base 8: 23.030 ± 0.037M/s
base 16: 22.034 ± 0.004M/s
base 32: 18.152 ± 0.013M/s

fentry 16: 21.121 ± 0.004M/s
fentry 32: 17.067 ± 0.023M/s
After these changes, we see almost perfect linear scaling, as expected.
The sub-linear scaling when going from 8 to 16 threads is interesting
and consistent on my test machine, but I haven't investigated what is
causing it this peculiar slowdown (across all benchmarks, could be due
to hyperthreading effects, not sure).
