      this_cpu: Use this_cpu operations in RCU · e800879d
      由 Christoph Lameter 提交于 
      RCU does not do dynamic allocations but it increments per cpu variables
a lot. These instructions results in a move to a register and then back
to memory. This patch will make it use the inc/dec instructions on x86
that do not need a register.

      Using per cpu atomics for the vm statistics reduces their overhead.
And in the case of x86 we are guaranteed that they will never race even
in the lax form used for vm statistics.

      由 Christoph Lameter 提交于 
      Just a slight optimization that removes one array lookup.
The processor number is needed for other things as well so the
get/put_cpu cannot be removed.

      The xfs_icsb_modify_counters() function no longer needs the cpu variable
if we use this_cpu_ptr() and we can get rid of get/put_cpu().

      this_cpu: Eliminate get/put_cpu · e7dcaa47
      由 Christoph Lameter 提交于 
      There are cases where we can use this_cpu_ptr and as the result
of using this_cpu_ptr() we no longer need to determine the
currently executing cpu.

In those places no get/put_cpu combination is needed anymore.
The local cpu variable can be eliminated.

Preemption still needs to be disabled and enabled since the
modifications of the per cpu variables is not atomic. There may
be multiple per cpu variables modified and those must all
be from the same processor.

      由 Christoph Lameter 提交于 
      Basically the existing percpu ops can be used for this_cpu variants that allow
operations also on dynamically allocated percpu data. However, we do not pass a
reference to a percpu variable in. Instead a dynamically or statically
allocated percpu variable is provided.

Preempt, the non preempt and the irqsafe operations generate the same code.
It will always be possible to have the requires per cpu atomicness in a single
RMW instruction with segment override on x86.

64 bit this_cpu operations are not supported on 32 bit.

      this_cpu: Introduce this_cpu_ptr() and generic this_cpu_* operations · 7340a0b1
      由 Christoph Lameter 提交于 
      This patch introduces two things: First this_cpu_ptr and then per cpu
atomic operations.

this_cpu_ptr
------------

A common operation when dealing with cpu data is to get the instance of the
cpu data associated with the currently executing processor. This can be
optimized by

this_cpu_ptr(xx) = per_cpu_ptr(xx, smp_processor_id).

The problem with per_cpu_ptr(x, smp_processor_id) is that it requires
an array lookup to find the offset for the cpu. Processors typically
have the offset for the current cpu area in some kind of (arch dependent)
efficiently accessible register or memory location.

We can use that instead of doing the array lookup to speed up the
determination of the address of the percpu variable. This is particularly
significant because these lookups occur in performance critical paths
of the core kernel. this_cpu_ptr() can avoid memory accesses and

this_cpu_ptr comes in two flavors. The preemption context matters since we
are referring the the currently executing processor. In many cases we must
insure that the processor does not change while a code segment is executed.

__this_cpu_ptr 	-> Do not check for preemption context
this_cpu_ptr	-> Check preemption context

The parameter to these operations is a per cpu pointer. This can be the
address of a statically defined per cpu variable (&per_cpu_var(xxx)) or
the address of a per cpu variable allocated with the per cpu allocator.

per cpu atomic operations: this_cpu_*(var, val)
-----------------------------------------------
this_cpu_* operations (like this_cpu_add(struct->y, value) operate on
abitrary scalars that are members of structures allocated with the new
per cpu allocator. They can also operate on static per_cpu variables
if they are passed to per_cpu_var() (See patch to use this_cpu_*
operations for vm statistics).

These operations are guaranteed to be atomic vs preemption when modifying
the scalar. The calculation of the per cpu offset is also guaranteed to
be atomic at the same time. This means that a this_cpu_* operation can be
safely used to modify a per cpu variable in a context where interrupts are
enabled and preemption is allowed. Many architectures can perform such
a per cpu atomic operation with a single instruction.

Note that the atomicity here is different from regular atomic operations.
Atomicity is only guaranteed for data accessed from the currently executing
processor. Modifications from other processors are still possible. There
must be other guarantees that the per cpu data is not modified from another
processor when using these instruction. The per cpu atomicity is created
by the fact that the processor either executes and instruction or not.
Embedded in the instruction is the relocation of the per cpu address to
the are reserved for the current processor and the RMW action. Therefore
interrupts or preemption cannot occur in the mids of this processing.

Generic fallback functions are used if an arch does not define optimized
this_cpu operations. The functions come also come in the two flavors used
for this_cpu_ptr().

The firstparameter is a scalar that is a member of a structure allocated
through allocpercpu or a per cpu variable (use per_cpu_var(xxx)). The
operations are similar to what percpu_add() and friends do.

this_cpu_read(scalar)
this_cpu_write(scalar, value)
this_cpu_add(scale, value)
this_cpu_sub(scalar, value)
this_cpu_inc(scalar)
this_cpu_dec(scalar)
this_cpu_and(scalar, value)
this_cpu_or(scalar, value)
this_cpu_xor(scalar, value)

Arch code can override the generic functions and provide optimized atomic
per cpu operations. These atomic operations must provide both the relocation
(x86 does it through a segment override) and the operation on the data in a
single instruction. Otherwise preempt needs to be disabled and there is no
gain from providing arch implementations.

A third variant is provided prefixed by irqsafe_. These variants are safe
against hardware interrupts on the *same* processor (all per cpu atomic
primitives are *always* *only* providing safety for code running on the
*same* processor!). The increment needs to be implemented by the hardware
in such a way that it is a single RMW instruction that is either processed
before or after an interrupt.
