From e03bcb68629c7f0728c95f1afe06ce48565c7713 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Milton Miller Date: Mon, 18 Jan 2010 13:00:51 +1100 Subject: [PATCH] generic-ipi: Optimize accesses by using DEFINE_PER_CPU_SHARED_ALIGNED for IPI data The smp ipi data is passed around and given write access by other cpus and should be separated from per-cpu data consumed by this cpu. Looking for hot lines, I saw call_function_data shared with tick_cpu_sched.
