__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 : #define __get_cpu_var(var) (*this_cpu_ptr(&(var))) __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 calculations are avoided and less registers are used when code is generated. At the end of the patch set all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed so the macro is removed too. The patch set 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, y); 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(&x, this_cpu_ptr(&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) Cc: Ralf Baechle Signed-off-by: Christoph Lameter Index: linux/arch/mips/include/asm/fpu_emulator.h =================================================================== --- linux.orig/arch/mips/include/asm/fpu_emulator.h 2013-12-02 16:07:58.254398466 -0600 +++ linux/arch/mips/include/asm/fpu_emulator.h 2013-12-02 16:07:58.244398747 -0600 @@ -43,7 +43,7 @@ DECLARE_PER_CPU(struct mips_fpu_emulator #define MIPS_FPU_EMU_INC_STATS(M) \ do { \ preempt_disable(); \ - __local_inc(&__get_cpu_var(fpuemustats).M); \ + __this_cpu_inc(fpuemustats.M); \ preempt_enable(); \ } while (0) Index: linux/arch/mips/cavium-octeon/octeon-irq.c =================================================================== --- linux.orig/arch/mips/cavium-octeon/octeon-irq.c 2013-12-02 16:07:58.254398466 -0600 +++ linux/arch/mips/cavium-octeon/octeon-irq.c 2013-12-02 16:07:58.244398747 -0600 @@ -264,13 +264,13 @@ static void octeon_irq_ciu_enable_local( unsigned long *pen; unsigned long flags; union octeon_ciu_chip_data cd; - raw_spinlock_t *lock = &__get_cpu_var(octeon_irq_ciu_spinlock); + raw_spinlock_t *lock = this_cpu_ptr(&octeon_irq_ciu_spinlock); cd.p = irq_data_get_irq_chip_data(data); raw_spin_lock_irqsave(lock, flags); if (cd.s.line == 0) { - pen = &__get_cpu_var(octeon_irq_ciu0_en_mirror); + pen = this_cpu_ptr(&octeon_irq_ciu0_en_mirror); __set_bit(cd.s.bit, pen); /* * Must be visible to octeon_irq_ip{2,3}_ciu() before @@ -279,7 +279,7 @@ static void octeon_irq_ciu_enable_local( wmb(); cvmx_write_csr(CVMX_CIU_INTX_EN0(cvmx_get_core_num() * 2), *pen); } else { - pen = &__get_cpu_var(octeon_irq_ciu1_en_mirror); + pen = this_cpu_ptr(&octeon_irq_ciu1_en_mirror); __set_bit(cd.s.bit, pen); /* * Must be visible to octeon_irq_ip{2,3}_ciu() before @@ -296,13 +296,13 @@ static void octeon_irq_ciu_disable_local unsigned long *pen; unsigned long flags; union octeon_ciu_chip_data cd; - raw_spinlock_t *lock = &__get_cpu_var(octeon_irq_ciu_spinlock); + raw_spinlock_t *lock = this_cpu_ptr(&octeon_irq_ciu_spinlock); cd.p = irq_data_get_irq_chip_data(data); raw_spin_lock_irqsave(lock, flags); if (cd.s.line == 0) { - pen = &__get_cpu_var(octeon_irq_ciu0_en_mirror); + pen = this_cpu_ptr(&octeon_irq_ciu0_en_mirror); __clear_bit(cd.s.bit, pen); /* * Must be visible to octeon_irq_ip{2,3}_ciu() before @@ -311,7 +311,7 @@ static void octeon_irq_ciu_disable_local wmb(); cvmx_write_csr(CVMX_CIU_INTX_EN0(cvmx_get_core_num() * 2), *pen); } else { - pen = &__get_cpu_var(octeon_irq_ciu1_en_mirror); + pen = this_cpu_ptr(&octeon_irq_ciu1_en_mirror); __clear_bit(cd.s.bit, pen); /* * Must be visible to octeon_irq_ip{2,3}_ciu() before @@ -431,11 +431,11 @@ static void octeon_irq_ciu_enable_local_ if (cd.s.line == 0) { int index = cvmx_get_core_num() * 2; - set_bit(cd.s.bit, &__get_cpu_var(octeon_irq_ciu0_en_mirror)); + set_bit(cd.s.bit, this_cpu_ptr(&octeon_irq_ciu0_en_mirror)); cvmx_write_csr(CVMX_CIU_INTX_EN0_W1S(index), mask); } else { int index = cvmx_get_core_num() * 2 + 1; - set_bit(cd.s.bit, &__get_cpu_var(octeon_irq_ciu1_en_mirror)); + set_bit(cd.s.bit, this_cpu_ptr(&octeon_irq_ciu1_en_mirror)); cvmx_write_csr(CVMX_CIU_INTX_EN1_W1S(index), mask); } } @@ -450,11 +450,11 @@ static void octeon_irq_ciu_disable_local if (cd.s.line == 0) { int index = cvmx_get_core_num() * 2; - clear_bit(cd.s.bit, &__get_cpu_var(octeon_irq_ciu0_en_mirror)); + clear_bit(cd.s.bit, this_cpu_ptr(&octeon_irq_ciu0_en_mirror)); cvmx_write_csr(CVMX_CIU_INTX_EN0_W1C(index), mask); } else { int index = cvmx_get_core_num() * 2 + 1; - clear_bit(cd.s.bit, &__get_cpu_var(octeon_irq_ciu1_en_mirror)); + clear_bit(cd.s.bit, this_cpu_ptr(&octeon_irq_ciu1_en_mirror)); cvmx_write_csr(CVMX_CIU_INTX_EN1_W1C(index), mask); } } @@ -1063,7 +1063,7 @@ static void octeon_irq_ip2_ciu(void) const unsigned long core_id = cvmx_get_core_num(); u64 ciu_sum = cvmx_read_csr(CVMX_CIU_INTX_SUM0(core_id * 2)); - ciu_sum &= __get_cpu_var(octeon_irq_ciu0_en_mirror); + ciu_sum &= __this_cpu_read(octeon_irq_ciu0_en_mirror); if (likely(ciu_sum)) { int bit = fls64(ciu_sum) - 1; int irq = octeon_irq_ciu_to_irq[0][bit]; @@ -1080,7 +1080,7 @@ static void octeon_irq_ip3_ciu(void) { u64 ciu_sum = cvmx_read_csr(CVMX_CIU_INT_SUM1); - ciu_sum &= __get_cpu_var(octeon_irq_ciu1_en_mirror); + ciu_sum &= __this_cpu_read(octeon_irq_ciu1_en_mirror); if (likely(ciu_sum)) { int bit = fls64(ciu_sum) - 1; int irq = octeon_irq_ciu_to_irq[1][bit]; @@ -1129,10 +1129,10 @@ static void octeon_irq_init_ciu_percpu(v int coreid = cvmx_get_core_num(); - __get_cpu_var(octeon_irq_ciu0_en_mirror) = 0; - __get_cpu_var(octeon_irq_ciu1_en_mirror) = 0; + __this_cpu_write(octeon_irq_ciu0_en_mirror, 0); + __this_cpu_write(octeon_irq_ciu1_en_mirror, 0); wmb(); - raw_spin_lock_init(&__get_cpu_var(octeon_irq_ciu_spinlock)); + raw_spin_lock_init(this_cpu_ptr(&octeon_irq_ciu_spinlock)); /* * Disable All CIU Interrupts.
