[PATCH v2] x86/sgx: Replace kmap/kunmap_atomic calls

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

 



kmap_local_page() is the preferred way to create temporary mappings
when it is feasible, because the mappings are thread-local and
CPU-local. kmap_local_page() uses per-task maps rather than per-CPU
maps. This in effect removes the need to preemption in the
local CPU while kmap is active, and thus vastly reduces overall
system latency. It is also valid to take pagefaults.

The use of kmap_atomic() in the SGX code was not an explicit design
choice to disable page faults or preemption, and there is no compelling
design reason to using kmap_atomic() vs. kmap_local_page().

For more information on the use of kmap_local_page() vs.
kmap_atomic(), please see Documentation/mm/highmem.rst

Changes since V1:

- Reword commit message to make it more clear why it is preferred
  to use kmap_local_page() vs. kmap_atomic().
