Subject: [patch] bitops: lock bitops
Date: Thu, 12 Jul 2007 05:14:19 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20070712031419.GF32414@wotan.suse.de> (raw)
Here is a set of patches that aims to mitigate some of the lock_page
overhead on powerpc introduced in the fault path by another set.
Fortunately it also improves various other things too :)
After this set, a dd if=./big-sparse-file of=/dev/null on my G5
goes from 563MB/s to 575MB/s, or about 80ns less time per page.
However I won't post the full set until after getting some acks
from the arch people now, because it is a fair bit of churn in core
code (eg. renaming !TestSetPageLocked to trylock_page).
Not sure who else can take advantage of these. Sparc64 probably.
--
Introduce test_and_set_bit_lock / clear_bit_unlock bitops with lock semantics.
Add non-trivial implementations for powerpc and ia64.

Basically, each usage case has to be carefully considered as to whether memory
barriers are needed or not.
+The following operations are special locking primitives:
