Subject: [RFC PATCH 2/3] getcpu_cache: wire up ARM system call
Date: Tue, 5 Jan 2016 02:01:59 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1451977320-4886-3-git-send-email-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1451977320-4886-1-git-send-email-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com>
Wire up the getcpu cache system call on 32-bit ARM. Call the
getcpu_cache_handle_notify_resume() function on return to
userspace if TIF_NOTIFY_RESUME thread flag is set.
This provides an ABI improving the speed of a getcpu operation
on ARM by skipping the getcpu system call on the fast path.
