If it isn't noticeable, I'd rather have it always on than some number chosen on whichever SoC you tested. Another option would be to make this a sysctl tunable. > .../features/vm/TLB/arch-support.txt | 2 +- > arch/arm64/Kconfig | 6 +++ > arch/arm64/include/asm/tlbbatch.h | 12 +++++ > arch/arm64/include/asm/tlbflush.h | 52 ++++++++++++++++++- > arch/x86/include/asm/tlbflush.h | 5 +- > include/linux/mm_types_task.h | 4 +- > mm/rmap.c | 10 ++-- Please keep any function prototype changes in a preparatory patch so that the arm64 one only introduces the arch specific changes.

We don't have such tracking on arm64 and I don't think it matters. As noticed/described in this series, the bottleneck is the actual DSB synchronisation (which sends a DVM Sync message to all the other CPUs and waits for a DVM Complete response). So I think it makes sense not to bother with an mm_cpumask(). What this patch aims to optimise is actually the number of DSBs issued on an SMP system by ptep_clear_flush(). The DVM is not an architected concept (well, it's part of AMBA AXI). I'd be curious to know how such patch behaves on Apple's M1/M2 hardware. My preference would be to have this always on for num_online_cpus() > 1 if there's no overhead. -- Catalin _______________________________________________ linux-riscv mailing list linux-riscv@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-riscv
