[PATCH v4 15/16] x86: do MTRR/PAT setup on all secondary CPUs in parallel
From: Juergen Gross
Date: Tue Oct 04 2022 - 04:13:23 EST
Instead of serializing MTRR/PAT setup on the secondary CPUs in order
to avoid clobbering of static variables used by the setup process, put
those variables into a structure held on the stack and drop the
serialization.
This speeds up the start of secondary cpus a little bit (on a small
system with 8 CPUs the time needed for starting the secondary CPUs was
measured to go down from about 60 milliseconds without this patch to
about 55 milliseconds with this patch applied).
