Yep, still queued for 3.13, and I even redid the change in
rcu_is_cpu_idle() to be the way you wanted it. I wouldn't do that for
just anyone, you know! ;-)
Current patch below.
Thanx, Paul
------------------------------------------------------------------------
rcu: Replace __get_cpu_var() uses
__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One
of them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x). This
calculates the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the
current processor based on an offset.
Other use cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current
processors percpu area. __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when
writing data or on the right side of an assignment.
__get_cpu_var() is defined as :
__get_cpu_var() always only does an address determination. However,
store and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global
register on other platforms) to avoid the address calculation.
this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into
a percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per
cpu variables.
This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either an explicit address
calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations
that use the offset. Thereby address calcualtions are avoided and less
registers are used when code is generated.
At the end of the patchset all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed
so the macro is removed too.
The patchset includes passes over all arches as well. Once these
operations are used throughout then specialized macros can be defined in
non -x86 arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by f.e. using
a global register that may be set to the per cpu base.
Transformations done to __get_cpu_var()
1. Determine the address of the percpu instance of the current processor.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
int *x = &__get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
int *x = this_cpu_ptr(&y);
2. Same as #1 but this time an array structure is involved.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y[20]);
int *x = __get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
int *x = this_cpu_ptr(y);
3. Retrieve the content of the current processors instance of a per cpu
variable.
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, u);
int x = __get_cpu_var(y)
Converts to
int x = __this_cpu_read(y);
4. Retrieve the content of a percpu struct
DEFINE_PER_CPU(struct mystruct, y);
struct mystruct x = __get_cpu_var(y);
Converts to
memcpy(this_cpu_ptr(&x), y, sizeof(x));
5. Assignment to a per cpu variable
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y)
__get_cpu_var(y) = x;
Converts to
this_cpu_write(y, x);
6. Increment/Decrement etc of a per cpu variable
DEFINE_PER_CPU(int, y);
__get_cpu_var(y)++
Converts to
this_cpu_inc(y)
