PCID review?

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

 



Quite a few people have expressed interest in enabling PCID on (x86)
Linux.  Here's the code:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/luto/linux.git/log/?h=x86/pcid

The main hold-up is that the code needs to be reviewed very carefully.
It's quite subtle.  In particular, "x86/mm: Try to preserve old TLB
entries using PCID" ought to be looked at carefully to make sure the
locking is right, but there are plenty of other ways this this could
all break.

Anyone want to take a look or maybe scare up some other reviewers?
(Kees, you seemed *really* excited about getting this in.)
