Subject: [PATCH 1/8] x86: Add 1/2/4/8 byte optimization to 64bit __copy_{from,to}_user_inatomic
Date: Tue, 13 Aug 2013 17:07:09 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1376438836-13339-2-git-send-email-andi@firstfloor.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1376438836-13339-1-git-send-email-andi@firstfloor.org>
From: Andi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com>
The 64bit __copy_{from,to}_user_inatomic always called
copy_from_user_generic, but skipped the special optimizations for 1/2/4/8
byte accesses.
This especially hurts the futex call, which accesses the 4 byte futex
user value with a complicated fast string operation in a function call,
instead of a single movl.
Use __copy_{from,to}_user for _inatomic instead to get the same
optimizations. The only problem was the might_fault() in those functions.
So move that to new wrapper and call __copy_{f,t}_user_nocheck()
from *_inatomic directly.
32bit already did this correctly by duplicating the code.
