[RFC PATCH v2 04/12] x86/mm/tlb: Flush remote and local TLBs concurrently

Nadav Amit
2019-05-31T06:37:40Z

To improve TLB shootdown performance, flush the remote and local TLBs
concurrently. Introduce flush_tlb_multi() that does so. The current
flush_tlb_others() interface is kept, since paravirtual interfaces need
to be adapted first before it can be removed. This is left for future
work. In such PV environments, TLB flushes are not performed, at this
time, concurrently.

Add a static key to tell whether this new interface is supported.
