Subject: [patch 1/8] s390: Optimize user and work TIF check
Date: Tue, 06 May 2008 17:50:28 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080506155110.930436689@de.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20080506155027.974409738@de.ibm.com
[-- Attachment #1: 001-kvm-tif-check.diff --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 4883 bytes --]
From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@de.ibm.com>
On return from syscall or interrupt, we have to check if we return to
userspace (likely) and if there is work todo (less likely) to decide
if we handle the work. We can optimize this check: we first check for
the less likely work case and then check for userspace.
This patch is also a preparation for an additional patch, that fixes a bug
in KVM dealing with cpu bound guests.
