From ad65782fba507d91a0a98f519b59e79cac1b474c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Frederic Weisbecker Date: Wed, 10 Jul 2013 02:44:35 +0200 Subject: context_tracking: Optimize main APIs off case with static key Optimize user and exception entry/exit APIs with static keys. This minimize the overhead for those who enable CONFIG_NO_HZ_FULL without always using it. Having no range passed to nohz_full= should result in the probes to be nopped (at least we hope so...). If this proves not be enough in the long term, we'll need to bring an exception slow path by re-routing the exception handlers. Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker Cc: Steven Rostedt Cc: Paul E.
