      x86: Scale up the number of TLB invalidate vectors with NR_CPUs, up to 32 · 70e4a369
      由 Shaohua Li 提交于 
      Make the maxium TLB invalidate vectors depend on NR_CPUS linearly,
with a maximum of 32 vectors.

We currently only have 8 vectors for TLB invalidation and that is clearly
inadequate. If we have a lot of CPUs, the CPUs need share the 8 vectors and
tlbstate_lock is used to protect them. flush_tlb_page() is
heavily used in page reclaim, which will cause a lot of lock
contention for tlbstate_lock.

Andi Kleen suggested increasing the vectors number to 32, which should be
good for current typical systems to reduce the tlbstate_lock contention.

My test system has 4 sockets and 64G memory, and 64 CPUs. My
workload creates 64 processes. Each process mmap reads a big
empty sparse file. The total size of the files are 2*total_mem,
so this will cause a lot of page reclaim.

Below is the result I get from perf call-graph profiling:

 without the patch:
 ------------------

    24.25%           usemem  [kernel]                                   [k] _raw_spin_lock
                     |
                     --- _raw_spin_lock
                        |
                        |--42.15%-- native_flush_tlb_others

 with the patch:
 ------------------

    14.96%           usemem  [kernel]                                   [k] _raw_spin_lock
                     |
                     --- _raw_spin_lock
                        |--13.89%-- native_flush_tlb_others

So this heavily reduces the tlbstate_lock contention.

      x86: Allocate 32 tlb_invalidate_interrupt handler stubs · 3a09fb45
      由 Shaohua Li 提交于 
      Add up to 32 invalidate_interrupt handlers. How many handlers are
added depends on NUM_INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTORS. So if
NUM_INVALIDATE_TLB_VECTORS is smaller than 32, we reduce code
size.

      klist: Fix object alignment on 64-bit. · 795abaf1
      由 David Miller 提交于 
      Commit c0e69a5b ("klist.c: bit 0 in pointer can't be used as flag")
intended to make sure that all klist objects were at least pointer size
aligned, but used the constant "4" which only works on 32-bit.

Use "sizeof(void *)" which is correct in all cases.
