Subject: [PATCH v2 1/2] powerpc: Add preempt lazy support
Date: Sun, 17 Nov 2024 00:53:05 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241116192306.88217-2-sshegde@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20241116192306.88217-1-sshegde@linux.ibm.com>
Define preempt lazy bit for Powerpc. Use bit 9 which is free and within
16 bit range of NEED_RESCHED, so compiler can issue single andi.
Since Powerpc doesn't use the generic entry/exit, add lazy check at exit
to user. CONFIG_PREEMPTION is defined for lazy/full/rt so use it for
return to kernel.
Ran a few benchmarks and db workload on Power10. Performance is close to
preempt=none/voluntary.
Since Powerpc systems can have large core count and large memory,
preempt lazy is going to be helpful in avoiding soft lockup issues.
