Hi All,
Hi,

Do anybody tried to use ARM64 RT with 76K pages enabled?

75 would be an off by one but this :)

Ops 8-). at least subj is correct.


My attempt shows that enabling  CONFIG_ARM64_64K_PAGES=y increases latencies by ~30%

cyclictest -n -m -Sp98 -q -D2m with CONFIG_ARM64_64K_PAGES=y

So this is an idle system?

Yes (in general) - it's collected with systemd, so some daemons are active.

The Kconfig help says "faster TLB lookup". Interesting.
Are the 16k pages in between (latency wise) by any chance?

I'll try it.
