      [PATCH] Add the vgetcpu vsyscall · c08c8205
      Vojtech Pavlik 提交于
      This patch adds a vgetcpu vsyscall, which depending on the CPU RDTSCP
      capability uses either the RDTSCP or CPUID to obtain a CPU and node
      numbers and pass them to the program.
      
      AK: Lots of changes over Vojtech's original code:
      Better prototype for vgetcpu()
      It's better to pass the cpu / node numbers as separate arguments
      to avoid mistakes when going from SMP to NUMA.
      Also add a fast time stamp based cache using a user supplied
      argument to speed things more up.
      Use fast method from Chuck Ebbert to retrieve node/cpu from
      GDT limit instead of CPUID
      Made sure RDTSCP init is always executed after node is known.
