[RFC PATCH V4 7/7] arm64: mm: Enable RCU fast_gup

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Activate the RCU fast_gup for ARM64. We also need to force THP splits
to broadcast an IPI s.t. we block in the fast_gup page walker. As THP
splits are comparatively rare, this should not lead to a noticeable
performance degradation.
