[PATCH 01/26] x86/sgx: Call cond_resched() at the end of sgx_reclaim_pages()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Sean Christopherson <sean.j.christopherson@xxxxxxxxx>

In order to avoid repetition of cond_resched() in ksgxd() and
sgx_alloc_epc_page(), move the invocation of post-reclaim cond_resched()
inside sgx_reclaim_pages(). Except in the case of sgx_reclaim_direct(),
sgx_reclaim_pages() is always called in a loop and is always followed
by a call to cond_resched().  This will hold true for the EPC cgroup
as well, which adds even more calls to sgx_reclaim_pages() and thus
cond_resched(). Calls to sgx_reclaim_direct() may be performance
sensitive. Allow sgx_reclaim_direct() to avoid the cond_resched()
call by moving the original sgx_reclaim_pages() call to
__sgx_reclaim_pages() and then have sgx_reclaim_pages() become a
wrapper around that call with a cond_resched().
