Subject: [PATCH 4.14 61/75] mm, x86/mm: Fix performance regression in get_user_pages_fast()
4.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: "Kirill A. Shutemov" <kirill.shutemov@...ux.intel.com>
[ Upstream commit 5b65c4677a57a1d4414212f9995aa0e46a21ff80 ]
The 0-day test bot found a performance regression that was tracked down to
switching x86 to the generic get_user_pages_fast() implementation:
http://lkml.kernel.org/r/20170710024020.GA26389@yexl-desktop
The regression was caused by the fact that we now use local_irq_save() +
local_irq_restore() in get_user_pages_fast() to disable interrupts.
In x86 implementation local_irq_disable() + local_irq_enable() was used.
The fix is to make get_user_pages_fast() use local_irq_disable(),
leaving local_irq_save() for __get_user_pages_fast() that can be called
with interrupts disabled.
Numbers for pinning a gigabyte of memory, one page a time, 20 repeats:
Before: Average: 14.91 ms, stddev: 0.45 ms
After: Average: 10.76 ms, stddev: 0.18 ms
