      x86_64: initialize this_cpu_off to __per_cpu_load · cd3adf52
      Tejun Heo authored 
      On x86_64, if get_per_cpu_var() is used before per cpu area is setup
(if lockdep is turned on, it happens), it needs this_cpu_off to point
to __per_cpu_load.  Initialize accordingly.

      x86: fix build bug introduced during merge · a338af2c
      Tejun Heo authored 
      EXPORT_PER_CPU_SYMBOL() got misplaced during merge leading to build
failure.  Fix it.

      percpu: add optimized generic percpu accessors · 6dbde353
      Ingo Molnar authored 
      It is an optimization and a cleanup, and adds the following new
generic percpu methods:

  percpu_read()
  percpu_write()
  percpu_add()
  percpu_sub()
  percpu_and()
  percpu_or()
  percpu_xor()

and implements support for them on x86. (other architectures will fall
back to a default implementation)

The advantage is that for example to read a local percpu variable,
instead of this sequence:

 return __get_cpu_var(var);

 ffffffff8102ca2b:	48 8b 14 fd 80 09 74 	mov    -0x7e8bf680(,%rdi,8),%rdx
 ffffffff8102ca32:	81
 ffffffff8102ca33:	48 c7 c0 d8 59 00 00 	mov    $0x59d8,%rax
 ffffffff8102ca3a:	48 8b 04 10          	mov    (%rax,%rdx,1),%rax

We can get a single instruction by using the optimized variants:

 return percpu_read(var);

 ffffffff8102ca3f:	65 48 8b 05 91 8f fd 	mov    %gs:0x7efd8f91(%rip),%rax

I also cleaned up the x86-specific APIs and made the x86 code use
these new generic percpu primitives.

tj: * fixed generic percpu_sub() definition as Roel Kluin pointed out
    * added percpu_and() for completeness's sake
    * made generic percpu ops atomic against preemption

      x86: misc clean up after the percpu update · 004aa322
      Tejun Heo authored 
      Do the following cleanups:

* kill x86_64_init_pda() which now is equivalent to pda_init()

* use per_cpu_offset() instead of cpu_pda() when initializing
  initial_gs

      x86: convert pda ops to wrappers around x86 percpu accessors · 49357d19
      Tejun Heo authored 
      pda is now a percpu variable and there's no reason it can't use plain
x86 percpu accessors.  Add x86_test_and_clear_bit_percpu() and replace
pda op implementations with wrappers around x86 percpu accessors.

      x86: make pda a percpu variable · b12d8db8
      Tejun Heo authored 
      [ Based on original patch from Christoph Lameter and Mike Travis. ]

As pda is now allocated in percpu area, it can easily be made a proper
percpu variable.  Make it so by defining per cpu symbol from linker
script and declaring it in C code for SMP and simply defining it for
UP.  This change cleans up code and brings SMP and UP closer a bit.
