From 909ea96468096b07fbb41aaf69be060d92bd9271 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoph Lameter Date: Wed, 8 Dec 2010 16:22:55 +0100 Subject: core: Replace __get_cpu_var with __this_cpu_read if not used for an address. __get_cpu_var() can be replaced with this_cpu_read and will then use a single read instruction with implied address calculation to access the correct per cpu instance. However, the address of a per cpu variable passed to __this_cpu_read() cannot be determined (since it's an implied address conversion through segment prefixes). Therefore apply this only to uses of __get_cpu_var where the address of the variable is not used. Cc: Pekka Enberg Cc: Hugh Dickins Cc: Thomas Gleixner Acked-by: H.
