Subject: [PATCH 01/22] Add powerpc-specific clear_cacheline(), which just compiles to "dcbz".
Date: Fri, 17 Feb 2006 16:57:04 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060218005704.13620.88286.stgit@localhost.localdomain> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20060218005532.13620.79663.stgit@localhost.localdomain>

From: Roland Dreier <rolandd@cisco.com>

This is horribly non-portable.  How much of a performance difference
does it make?  How does it do on ppc64 systems where the cacheline
size is not 32?
