2011-05-25x86: Reorder mm_context_t to remove x86_64 alignment padding and thus shrink ↵Richard Kennedy
mm_struct Reorder mm_context_t to remove alignment padding on 64 bit builds shrinking its size from 64 to 56 bytes. This allows mm_struct to shrink from 840 to 832 bytes, so using one fewer cache lines, and getting more objects per slab when using slub. slabinfo mm_struct reports before :- Sizes (bytes) Slabs ----------------------------------- Object : 840 Total : 7 SlabObj: 896 Full : 1 SlabSiz: 16384 Partial: 4 Loss : 56 CpuSlab: 2 Align : 64 Objects: 18 after :- Sizes (bytes) Slabs ---------------------------------- Object : 832 Total : 7 SlabObj: 832 Full : 1 SlabSiz: 16384 Partial: 4 Loss : 0 CpuSlab: 2 Align : 64 Objects: 19 Signed-off-by: Richard Kennedy <richard@rsk.demon.co.uk> Cc: wilsons@start.ca Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Pekka Enberg <penberg@kernel.org> Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1306244999.1999.5.camel@castor.rsk Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
2011-03-23x86: add context tag to mark mm when running a task in 32-bit compatibility modeStephen Wilson
This tag is intended to mirror the thread info TIF_IA32 flag. Will be used to identify mm's which support 32 bit tasks running in compatibility mode without requiring a reference to the task itself.

2008-10-22x86: Fix ASM_X86__ header guardsH. Peter Anvin
Change header guards named "ASM_X86__*" to "_ASM_X86_*" since: a. the double underscore is ugly and pointless. b. no leading underscore violates namespace constraints. Signed-off-by: H. Peter Anvin <hpa@zytor.com>
