Subject: [PATCH] tick/nohz: Only check for RCU deferred wakeup on user/guest entry when needed
Date: Thu, 27 May 2021 13:34:41 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210527113441.465489-1-frederic@kernel.org> (raw)
Checking for and processing RCU-nocb deferred wakeup upon user/guest
entry is only relevant when nohz_full runs on the local CPU, otherwise
the periodic tick should take care of it.
Make sure we don't needlessly pollute these fast-paths as a -3%
performance regression on a will-it-scale.per_process_ops has been
reported so far.
Reported-by: kernel test robot <oliver.sang@intel.com>
Fixes: 47b8ff194c1f (entry: Explicitly flush pending rcuog wakeup before last rescheduling point)
Fixes: 4ae7dc97f726 (entry/kvm: Explicitly flush pending rcuog wakeup before last rescheduling point)
