* x86: add notrace annotations to vsyscall.Steven Rostedt2008-05-23
| | | | | | | | | | Add the notrace annotations to the vsyscall functions - there we are not in kernel context yet, so the tracer function cannot (and must not) be called.

* x86: introduce native_read_tscpGlauber de Oliveira Costa2008-01-30
| | | | | | | | | | | Targetting paravirt, this patch introduces native_read_tscp, in place of rdtscp() macro. When in a paravirt guest, this will involve a function call, and thus, cannot be done in the vdso area. These users then have to call the native version directly Signed-off-by: Glauber de Oliveira Costa <gcosta@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de>
* x86: ignore the sys_getcpu() tcache parameterIngo Molnar2007-11-17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | dont use the vgetcpu tcache - it's causing problems with tasks migrating, they'll see the old cache up to a jiffy after the migration, further increasing the costs of the migration. In the worst case they see a complete bogus information from the tcache, when a sys_getcpu() call "invalidated" the cache info by incrementing the jiffies _and_ the cpuid info in the cache and the following vdso_getcpu() call happens after vdso_jiffies have been incremented.
