[guv v2 20/31] powerpc: Replace __get_cpu_var uses
__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of them is address calculation via the form &__get_cpu_var(x). This calculates the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor based on an offset. Others usage cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current processors percpu area. __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when writing data or on the right side of an assignment. __get_cpu_var() is defined as : #define __get_cpu_var(var) (*this_cpu_ptr(&(var))) __get_cpu_var() always only does a address determination. However, store and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on other platforms) to avoid the address calculation. this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu variables. This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either and explicit address calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that use the offset. Thereby address calcualtions are avoided and less registers are used when code is generated. At the end of the patchset all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed so the macro is removed too. The patchset includes passes over all arches as well. Once these operations are used throughout then specialized macros can be defined in non -x86 arches as well in order to optimize per cpu access by f.e. using a global register that may be set to the per cpu base.

[guv v2 20/31] powerpc: Replace __get_cpu_var uses
__get_cpu_var() is used for multiple purposes in the kernel source. One of them is address calculation via the form __get_cpu_var(x). This calculates the address for the instance of the percpu variable of the current processor based on an offset. Others usage cases are for storing and retrieving data from the current processors percpu area. __get_cpu_var() can be used as an lvalue when writing data or on the right side of an assignment. __get_cpu_var() is defined as : #define __get_cpu_var(var) (*this_cpu_ptr((var))) __get_cpu_var() always only does a address determination. However, store and retrieve operations could use a segment prefix (or global register on other platforms) to avoid the address calculation. this_cpu_write() and this_cpu_read() can directly take an offset into a percpu area and use optimized assembly code to read and write per cpu variables. This patch converts __get_cpu_var into either and explicit address calculation using this_cpu_ptr() or into a use of this_cpu operations that use the offset. Thereby address calcualtions are avoided and less registers are used when code is generated. At the end of the patchset all uses of __get_cpu_var have been removed so the macro is removed too.
