    x86: Add performance variants of cpumask operators · 41df0d61
    Mike Travis 提交于
      * Increase performance for systems with large count NR_CPUS by limiting
        the range of the cpumask operators that loop over the bits in a cpumask_t
        variable.  This removes a large amount of wasted cpu cycles.
    
      * Add performance variants of the cpumask operators:
    
        int cpus_weight_nr(mask)	     Same using nr_cpu_ids instead of NR_CPUS
        int first_cpu_nr(mask)	     Number lowest set bit, or nr_cpu_ids
        int next_cpu_nr(cpu, mask)	     Next cpu past 'cpu', or nr_cpu_ids
        for_each_cpu_mask_nr(cpu, mask)  for-loop cpu over mask using nr_cpu_ids
    
      * Modify following to use performance variants:
    
        #define num_online_cpus()	cpus_weight_nr(cpu_online_map)
        #define num_possible_cpus()	cpus_weight_nr(cpu_possible_map)
        #define num_present_cpus()	cpus_weight_nr(cpu_present_map)
    
        #define for_each_possible_cpu(cpu) for_each_cpu_mask_nr((cpu), ...)
        #define for_each_online_cpu(cpu)   for_each_cpu_mask_nr((cpu), ...)
        #define for_each_present_cpu(cpu)  for_each_cpu_mask_nr((cpu), ...)
    
      * Comment added to include/linux/cpumask.h:
    
        Note: The alternate operations with the suffix "_nr" are used
    	  to limit the range of the loop to nr_cpu_ids instead of
    	  NR_CPUS when NR_CPUS > 64 for performance reasons.
    	  If NR_CPUS is <= 64 then most assembler bitmask
    	  operators execute faster with a constant range, so
    	  the operator will continue to use NR_CPUS.
    
    	  Another consideration is that nr_cpu_ids is initialized
    	  to NR_CPUS and isn't lowered until the possible cpus are
    	  discovered (including any disabled cpus).  So early uses
    	  will span the entire range of NR_CPUS.
    
        (The net effect is that for systems with 64 or less CPU's there are no
         functional changes.)
    
    For inclusion into sched-devel/latest tree.
