Subject: [RFC PATCH for 4.15 08/22] powerpc: Wire up restartable sequences system call
Date: Tue, 21 Nov 2017 09:18:46 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20171121141900.18471-9-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20171121141900.18471-1-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.
