[PATCH 3/3] mm: gup: pack has_pinned in MMF_HAS_PINNED

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

 



From: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@xxxxxxxxxx>

has_pinned 32bit can be packed in the MMF_HAS_PINNED bit as a noop
cleanup.

Any atomic_inc/dec to the mm cacheline shared by all threads in
pin-fast would reintroduce a loss of SMP scalability to pin-fast, so
there's no future potential usefulness to keep an atomic in the mm for
this.

set_bit(MMF_HAS_PINNED) will be theoretically a bit slower than
WRITE_ONCE (atomic_set is equivalent to WRITE_ONCE), but the set_bit
(just like atomic_set after this commit) has to be still issued only
once per "mm", so the difference between the two will be lost in the
noise.

will-it-scale "mmap2" shows no change in performance with enterprise
config as expected.

will-it-scale "pin_fast" retains the > 4000% SMP scalability
performance improvement against upstream as expected.

This is a noop as far as overall performance and SMP scalability are
concerned.
