* Remove data race in libgcj interpreter @ 2008-08-21 13:31 Andrew Haley 2008-08-21 21:54 ` Andrew Haley ` (2 more replies) 0 siblings, 3 replies; 14+ messages in thread From: Andrew Haley @ 2008-08-21 13:31 UTC (permalink / raw) To: Java Patch List, Jakub Jelinek, Lillian Angel I've discovered a nasty data race in libgcj's interpreter. It is the cause of several bug reports, in particular https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=458921 An optimization rerwites instructions of the form invokespecial <constant pool index> to invokespecial_resolved <address> the first time that each invokespecial is encountered. However, in the presence of multiple threads this breaks. If Thread A is rewriting the instruction while Thread B is reading it, it is possible for Thread B to read half of the instruction before rewriting and half of the instruction after rewriting. Typically, it will read invokespecial <address> and it will crash, as the address is out of range for a constant pool index. Unfortunately we don't check the validity of constant pool indexes in the interpreter. This optimization was fairly extensively tested, but when it was written most of the test machines were uniprocessors, and this race is very unlikely to trigger a failure on a uniprocessor. As Dijkstra put it, testing can be used to show the presence of bugs, but never to show their absence! This patch, which I'm going to commit to all active branches, removes all uses of the instruction-rewriting optimization from libgcj's interpreter. It will make the interpreter considerably slower. Restoring the optimization will require some use of locking and careful analysis. I don't think it will be very difficult to fix, but it will need thought.

This patch fixes the problems by using fine-grained locking whenever accessing the constant pool. This lack of synchronization did not affect precompiled code because gcj resolves constants by emitting calls _Jv_ResolvePoolEntry, and that function locks the class whenever updating the constant pool. While coarse, this does guarantee that the data races in the interpreter cannot occur, which is why we've never seen this problem with precompiled code. In theory the class lock in _Jv_ResolvePoolEntry could now be removed because the new fine-grained locking makes it unnececessary. However, I'm not going to remove it yet. Andrew.

Ah right, thanks. It's rather appalling that we once knew about this bug but didn't fix it, preferring a fast interpreter to a correct one.

I think you're counting on the three loads to be performed in the order written. But the compiler gets to reshuffle the first two. And there is generally no prohibition against moving loads INTO a critical section, so they can in fact also be arbitrarily reordered with the i2 assignment as well. (On IA64 and SPARC, the hardware might conceivably do that, depending on the lock implementation. There is a long story about when this is Posix compatible, but it doesn't really matter here.) There is also another important issue: Posix and the upcoming C++ standard (among others) give undefined behavior to any program involving a data race. Clearly this program involves data races on the initial insn and value reads. The problem is that there are several good reasons for the Posix and C++ positions: 1) Compilers, including I believe gcc, implicitly assume that there are no asynchronous changes on non-volatile variables. If you invalidate this assumption, weird things may happen. These weird things don't always correspond to reading a different value. For example, the compiler may reread a register copy of the value from the shared variable when it has to spill the register, making it appear that a local variable (which is a copy of the shared variable) suddenly changes without an assignment to it. It's not hard to come up with cases in which this would provoke a crash. Empirically, this sort of thing doesn't happen much, but we were told at some point that gcc may behave this way. 2) I would guess that gcc supports some platforms on which things like pointer loads are not always atomic. 3) In the not-too-distant future, we'd really like to have reliable data-race detectors. This is much easier if code doesn't contain intentional data races. 4) None of us has managed to come up with an entirely satisfactory definition of what programs with data races mean. The JSR133 definition is reasonably close, but still has some issues that have come up recently. And it would probably have more serious performance implications on something like C++. I haven't thought though this through enough. Does it work to instead keep a shared (possibly per method?) count of the number of running interpreters, together with a shared bit (tested on backward branches) asking them to stop? You only modify the code if no interpreters are running (in that method). Getting this right is still nontrivial, but the races are restricted to well-defined atomic variables, which is fine.

Officially this doesn't help much, since I believe Posix allows undefined behavior for data races, even if they involve volatiles. Even in terms of current implementations, I don't believe it prevents hardware reordering on architectures like PowerPC. The C++ working paper provides atomic operations to address these issues. I think they're even somewhat implemented in the gcc trunk. But I'm not sure you can avoid operations that generate fences on some architectures in what should be the fast path.

The solution of detecting the case where two threads are concurrently executing a method seems far the best: it's obviously correct without requiring deep analysis of memory behaviour. I'm investigating that. Andrew. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 14+ messages in thread

Following Hans's suggestion I've added a field thread_count to class _Jv_InterpMethod and a mutex that's used whenever we rewrite instructions. Whenever we enter a method context we create an instance of ThreadCountAdjuster. In the ThreadCountAdjuster constructor we lock the mutex and increment the thread_count in the method. We also look at the previous method we were executing and decrement its thread count. Iff the thread count of a method is <= 1 we are allowed to rewrite instructions in the method. We don't have a data race if another thread enters a method while we are rewriting an instruction because the new thread will block on the mutex on entry. There is a small wrinkle in that proxy frames and JNI frames appear in the method stack but don't have an associated _Jv_InterpMethod. We detect this case and don't attempt to adjust the thread count. This means that we might miss an optimization opportunity, but this is an unusual case and is of little importance.
