User-Level Implementations of Read-Copy Update - aqua_lies - 10-04-2017
Abstract Read-copy update (RCU) is a synchronization technique that often replaces reader-writer locking because RCU's read-side primitives are both wait-free and an order of magnitude faster than uncontended locking. Although RCU updates are relatively heavy weight, the importance of read-side performance is increasing as computing systems become more responsive to changes in their environments. RCU is heavily used in several kernel-level environments. Unfortunately, kernel-level implementations use facilities that are often unavailable to user applications. The few prior user-level RCU implementations either provided inefficient read-side primitives or restricted the application architecture. This paper fills this gap by describing efficient and flexible RCU implementations based on primitives commonly available to user-level applications. Finally, this paper compares these RCU implementations with each other and with standard locking, which enables choosing the best mechanism for a given workload. This work opens the door to widespread user-application use of RCU.
