From 490dea45d00f01847ebebd007685d564aaf2cd98 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Peter Zijlstra Date: Mon, 24 Nov 2008 17:06:57 +0100 Subject: itimers: remove the per-cpu-ish-ness Either we bounce once cacheline per cpu per tick, yielding n^2 bounces or we just bounce a single.. Also, using per-cpu allocations for the thread-groups complicates the per-cpu allocator in that its currently aimed to be a fixed sized allocator and the only possible extention to that would be vmap based, which is seriously constrained on 32 bit archs. So making the per-cpu memory requirement depend on the number of processes is an issue. Lastly, it didn't deal with cpu-hotplug, although admittedly that might be fixable.
