      liquidio: fix timespec64_to_ns typo · e7ad9793
      由 Arnd Bergmann 提交于 
      While experimenting with changes to the timekeeping code, I
ran into a build error in the liquidio driver:

drivers/net/ethernet/cavium/liquidio/lio_main.c: In function 'liquidio_ptp_settime':
drivers/net/ethernet/cavium/liquidio/lio_main.c:1850:22: error: passing argument 1 of 'timespec_to_ns' from incompatible pointer type [-Werror=incompatible-pointer-types]

The driver had a type mismatch since it was first merged, but
this never caused problems because it is only built on 64-bit
architectures that define timespec and timespec64 to the same
type.

If we ever want to compile-test the driver on 32-bit or change
the way that 64-bit timespec64 is defined, we need to fix it,
so let's just do it now.

      smp: Avoid using two cache lines for struct call_single_data · 966a9671
      由 Ying Huang 提交于 
      struct call_single_data is used in IPIs to transfer information between
CPUs.  Its size is bigger than sizeof(unsigned long) and less than
cache line size.  Currently it is not allocated with any explicit alignment
requirements.  This makes it possible for allocated call_single_data to
cross two cache lines, which results in double the number of the cache lines
that need to be transferred among CPUs.

This can be fixed by requiring call_single_data to be aligned with the
size of call_single_data. Currently the size of call_single_data is the
power of 2.  If we add new fields to call_single_data, we may need to
add padding to make sure the size of new definition is the power of 2
as well.

Fortunately, this is enforced by GCC, which will report bad sizes.

To set alignment requirements of call_single_data to the size of
call_single_data, a struct definition and a typedef is used.

To test the effect of the patch, I used the vm-scalability multiple
thread swap test case (swap-w-seq-mt).  The test will create multiple
threads and each thread will eat memory until all RAM and part of swap
is used, so that huge number of IPIs are triggered when unmapping
memory.  In the test, the throughput of memory writing improves ~5%
compared with misaligned call_single_data, because of faster IPIs.
