[RFC, patch] i386: vgetcpu() for NUMA, take 2
From: Chuck Ebbert
Date: Sat Jun 24 2006 - 04:26:56 EST
This is attempt #2 at vgetcpu() NUMA support for i386. It uses a
GDT entry to hold cpu and node number for fast userspace access.
changes since #1:
proper function prototype (same as x86_64)
changed alignment of vsyscall functions to 16 bytes
(sigreturn needs to stay fixed, others can move)
to-do:
CFI annotations
test NUMA on real NUMA hardware (someone please test)
Test program:
/* vgetcpu.c: test how fast vgetcpu runs
* boot kernel with vgetcpu patch first, then:
* gcc -O3 -o vgetcpu vgetcpu.c <srcpath>/arch/i386/kernel/vsyscall-int80.so
* (don't forget the optimization (-O3))
*/
#define _GNU_SOURCE
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
extern int __attribute__ ((regparm(2))) __vgetcpu(int *cpu, int *node);
#define rdtscll(t) asm("rdtsc" : "=A" (t))
int main(int argc, char * const argv[])
{
long long tsc1, tsc2;
int i, cpu = 999, node = 999, iters = 99999;
if (__vgetcpu(&cpu, &node) || node == 999 || cpu == 999) {
printf("vgetcpu failed!\n");
_exit(1);
}
printf("node: %d, cpu: %d\n", node, cpu);
rdtscll(tsc1);
for (i = 0; i < iters; i++)
__vgetcpu(&cpu, &node);
rdtscll(tsc2);
printf("vgetcpu took %llu clocks per call\n", (tsc2 - tsc1) / iters);
return 0;
}
