Subject: [PATCH] powerpc/64s/radix: Enable huge vmalloc mappings
Date: Sun,  2 May 2021 14:56:15 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210502045615.237268-1-npiggin@gmail.com> (raw)

This reduces TLB misses by nearly 30x on a `git diff` workload on a
2-node POWER9 (59,800 -> 2,100) and reduces CPU cycles by 0.54%, due
to vfs hashes being allocated with 2MB pages.

Acked-by: Michael Ellerman <mpe@ellerman.id.au>

This was in the -mm tree but was dropped at the last minute after
clashing with a patch in powerpc next.

Now all prerequisites are upstream, this can be merged as is. Probably
makes sense now to go via powerpc tree.

This is rebased and retested on upstream.
