From d8e8c7dda11f5d5cf90495f2e89d917a83509bc0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Vineet Gupta Date: Thu, 28 Nov 2013 13:57:54 +0530 Subject: [PATCH] ARC: [SMP] optimize IPI send and receive * Don't send an IPI if receiver already has a pending IPI. Atomically piggyback the new msg with pending msg. * IPI receiver looping on xchg() not required References: https://lkml.org/lkml/2013/11/25/232 Suggested-by: Peter Zijlstra Signed-off-by: Vineet Gupta --- arch/arc/kernel/smp.c | 68 +++++++++++++++++++++++++------------------ 1 file changed, 40 insertions(+), 28 deletions(-) diff --git a/arch/arc/kernel/smp.c b/arch/arc/kernel/smp.c index c00c612e8dd3..40859e5619f9 100644 --- a/arch/arc/kernel/smp.c +++ b/arch/arc/kernel/smp.c @@ -215,16 +215,31 @@ static DEFINE_PER_CPU(unsigned long, ipi_data); static void ipi_send_msg_one(int cpu, enum ipi_msg_type msg) { unsigned long __percpu *ipi_data_ptr = per_cpu_ptr(&ipi_data, cpu); + unsigned long old, new; unsigned long flags; pr_debug("%d Sending msg [%d] to %d\n", smp_processor_id(), msg, cpu); local_irq_save(flags); - set_bit(msg, ipi_data_ptr); + /* + * Atomically write new msg bit (in case others are writing too), + * and read back old value + */ + do { + new = old = *ipi_data_ptr; + new |= 1U << msg; + } while (cmpxchg(ipi_data_ptr, old, new) != old); - /* Call the platform specific cross-CPU call function */ - if (plat_smp_ops.ipi_send) + /* + * Call the platform specific IPI kick function, but avoid if possible: + * Only do so if there's no pending msg from other concurrent sender(s). + * Otherwise, recevier will see this msg as well when it takes the + * IPI corresponding to that msg.
