[PATCH v15 07/26] x86/kvmclock: Switch kvmclock data to a PER_CPU variable

From: Pavel Tatashin
Date: Thu Jul 19 2018 - 16:57:17 EST


From: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The previous removal of the memblock dependency from kvmclock introduced a
static data array sized 64bytes * CONFIG_NR_CPUS. That's wasteful on large
systems when kvmclock is not used.

Replace it with:

- A static page sized array of pvclock data. It's page sized because the
pvclock data of the boot cpu is mapped into the VDSO so otherwise random
other data would be exposed to the vDSO

- A PER_CPU variable of pvclock data pointers. This is used to access the
pcvlock data storage on each CPU.

The setup is done in two stages:

- Early boot stores the pointer to the static page for the boot CPU in
the per cpu data.

- In the preparatory stage of CPU hotplug assign either an element of
the static array (when the CPU number is in that range) or allocate
memory and initialize the per cpu pointer.
