      tools turbostat: reduce measurement overhead due to IPIs · 88c3281f
      Len Brown 提交于
      turbostat uses /dev/cpu/*/msr interface to read MSRs.
      For modern systems, it reads 10 MSR/CPU.  This can
      be observed as 10 "Function Call Interrupts"
      per CPU per sample added to /proc/interrupts.
      
      This overhead is measurable on large idle systems,
      and as Yoquan Song pointed out, it can even trick
      cpuidle into thinking the system is busy.
      
      Here turbostat re-schedules itself in-turn to each
      CPU so that its MSR reads will always be local.
      This replaces the 10 "Function Call Interrupts"
      with a single "Rescheduling interrupt" per sample
      per CPU.
      
      On an idle 32-CPU system, this shifts some residency from
      the shallow c1 state to the deeper c7 state:

      Pull networking changes from David Miller:
       "1) icmp6_dst_alloc() returns NULL instead of ERR_PTR() leading to
           crashes, particularly during shutdown.  Reported by Dave Jones and
           fixed by Eric Dumazet.
      
        2) hyperv and wimax/i2400m return NETDEV_TX_BUSY when they have
           already freed the SKB, which causes crashes as to the caller this
           means requeue the packet.  Fixes from Eric Dumazet.
      
        3) usbnet driver doesn't allocate the right amount of headroom on
           fresh RX SKBs, fix from Eric Dumazet.
      
        4) Fix regression in ip6_mc_find_dev_rcu(), as an RCU lookup it
           abolutely should not take a reference to 'dev', this leads to
           leaks.  Fix from RonQing Li.
      
        5) Fix netfilter ctnetlink race between delete and timeout expiration.
           From Pablo Neira Ayuso.
      
        6) Revert SFQ change which causes regressions, specifically queueing
           to tail can lead to unavoidable flow starvation.  From Eric
           Dumazet.
      
        7) Fix a memory leak and a crash on corrupt firmware files in bnx2x,
           from Michal Schmidt."
