From b402b73b3afe3614bc0e921ebe18013ea103115a Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dimitri Sivanich Date: Fri, 29 Jun 2012 14:17:29 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Segregate rcu_state fields to improve cache locality The fields in the rcu_state structure that are protected by the root rcu_node structure's ->lock can share a cache line with the fields protected by ->onofflock. This can result in excessive memory contention on large systems, so this commit applies ____cacheline_internodealigned_in_smp to the ->onofflock field in order to segregate them.
