Subject: [PATCH 1/9] s390/percpu: Provide arch_raw_cpu_ptr()
Date: Tue, 17 Mar 2026 20:54:28 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260317195436.2276810-2-hca@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260317195436.2276810-1-hca@linux.ibm.com>
Provide an s390 specific arch_raw_cpu_ptr() implementation which avoids the
detour over get_lowcore() to get the lowcore pointer. The inline assembly
is implemented with an alternative so that relocated lowcore (percpu offset
is at a different address) is handled correctly.
This turns code like this
102f78: a7 39 00 00 lghi %r3,0
102f7c: e3 20 33 b8 00 08 ag %r2,952(%r3)
which adds the percpu offset to register r2 with a single instruction
102f7c: e3 20 33 b8 00 08 ag %r2,952(%r0)
and also avoids the need of a base register, thus reducing register
pressure.
With defconfig bloat-o-meter -t provides this result:
add/remove: 12/26 grow/shrink: 183/3391 up/down: 14880/-41950 (-27070)

* We use a compare-and-swap loop since that uses less cpu cycles than
