RE: [PATCH] Multiple outstanding ptc.g instructions support

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

 



I made a few changes to this:

1) Updated w.r.t. latest kernel (mostly due to cleanups in efi.c)
2) Dropped the palinfo.c piece that provided the PALO values for
   number of purges.  I think that /proc/pal/cpu*/* should just
   return the values that PAL provides.  If we need to provide an
   API to get at the PALO values, then a new interface is needed
   (/proc/pal/palo perhaps?)
3) Removed some global variables.
4) Added code to act on max_purge values found from PAL_VM_SUMMARY.
   This got a bit messy.  See setup_ptcg_sem() in arch/ia64/mm/tlb.c,
   suggestions on how to make this simpler gratefully received.

commit bf454b2d048f7fd27cb834af87806c85a760d60c

    [IA64] Multiple outstanding ptc.g instruction support
    
    According to SDM2.2, Itanium supports multiple outstanding ptc.g instructions.
    But current kernel function ia64_global_tlb_purge() uses a spinlock to serialize
    ptc.g instructions issued by multiple processors. This serialization might have
    scalability issue on a big SMP machine where many processors could purge TLB
    in parallel.
    
    The patch fixes this problem by issuing multiple ptc.g instructions in
    ia64_global_tlb_purge(). It also adds support for the "PALO" table to get
    a platform view of the max number of outstanding ptc.g instructions (which
    may be different from the processor view found from PAL_VM_SUMMARY).
    
    PALO specification can be found at: http://www.dig64.org/home/DIG64_PALO_R1_0.pdf
