Thanks! >From 963425639f56c1ba1c997653a4ff6885c81dc0ab Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alex Shi Date: Sat, 15 Aug 2020 22:54:17 +0800 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] mm/pageblock: mitigation cmpxchg false sharing in pageblock flags pageblock_flags is used as long, since every pageblock_flags is just 4 bits, 'long' size will include 8(32bit machine) or 16 pageblocks' flags, that flag setting has to sync in cmpxchg with 7 or 15 other pageblock flags. It would cause long waiting for sync. If we could change the pageblock_flags variable as char, we could use char size cmpxchg, which just sync up with 2 pageblock flags. it could relief much false sharing in cmpxchg.
