[PATCH v8 6/8] x86/tlb: enable tlb flush range support for generic mmu and x86

From: Alex Shi
Date: Tue Jun 12 2012 - 05:09:49 EST


Not every tlb_flush execution moment is really need to evacuate all
TLB entries, like in munmap, just few 'invlpg' is better for whole
process performance, since it leaves most of TLB entries for later
accessing.

All of tlb interfaces in mm/memory.c are reused by all architectures
except few of them for generic mmu_gather were protected under
HAVE_GENERIC_MMU_GATHER. So, add flush range start/end under
HAVE_GENERIC_MMU_GATHER for generic mmu implementation.
For x86, just need to re-implement tlb_flush().

This patch also rewrite flush_tlb_range for 2 purposes:
1, split it out to get flush_blt_mm_range function.
2, clean up to reduce line breaking, thanks for Borislav's input.

My macro benchmark 'mummap' http://lkml.org/lkml/2012/5/17/59
show that the random memory access on other CPU has 0~50% speed up
on a 2P * 4cores * HT NHM EP while do 'munmap'.

Thanks for Peter Zijlstra time and time reminder for multiple
architecture code safe!
