Subject: [PATCH 11/11] arm64: percpu: use local percpu for this_cpu_*() APIs
Date: Wed, 29 Apr 2026 10:04:39 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260429170758.3018959-12-yang@os.amperecomputing.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260429170758.3018959-1-yang@os.amperecomputing.com>
Use local percpu address for this_cpu_*() APIs. Because the percpu
variable is mapped to the same virtual address, their address can be
calculated by using __per_cpu_local_off which has same value for all
CPUs. So preempt_disable/preempt_enable is not needed anymore. This
optimization can improve the performance for this_cpu_*() operations.
Kernel build test on AmpereOne (160 cores) with default Fedora kernel
config in a memcg roughly showed 13% - 15% sys time improvement.
