Subject: [RFC PATCH v2 2/3] getcpu_cache: wire up ARM system call
Date: Wed, 27 Jan 2016 11:54:42 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1453913683-28915-3-git-send-email-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1453913683-28915-1-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.
