Andi Kleen 3cfc348bf9 [PATCH] x86: Add portable getcpu call ... For NUMA optimization and some other algorithms it is useful to have a fast to get the current CPU and node numbers in user space. x86-64 added a fast way to do this in a vsyscall. This adds a generic syscall for other architectures to make it a generic portable facility. I expect some of them will also implement it as a faster vsyscall. The cache is an optimization for the x86-64 vsyscall optimization. Since what the syscall returns is an approximation anyways and user space often wants very fast results it can be cached for some time. The norma methods to get this information in user space are relatively slow The vsyscall is in a better position to manage the cache because it has direct access to a fast time stamp (jiffies). For the generic syscall optimization it doesn't help much, but enforce a valid argument to keep programs portable I only added an i386 syscall entry for now. Other architectures can follow as needed. AK: Also added some cleanups from Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Andi Kleen <ak@suse.de>		2006-09-26 10:52:28 +02:00
