Subject: [PATCH 08/14] powerpc: Wire up restartable sequences system call
Date: Mon, 30 Apr 2018 18:44:27 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180430224433.17407-9-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180430224433.17407-1-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com>

From: Boqun Feng <boqun.feng@gmail.com>

Wire up the rseq system call on powerpc.

This provides an ABI improving the speed of a user-space getcpu
operation on powerpc by skipping the getcpu system call on the fast
path, as well as improving the speed of user-space operations on per-cpu
data compared to using load-reservation/store-conditional atomics.

TODO: wire up rseq_syscall() on return from system call. It is used with
CONFIG_DEBUG_RSEQ=y to ensure system calls are not issued within rseq critical
section
