Subject: [PATCH v2 6/6] arm64: select ARCH_WANT_OPTIMIZE_HUGETLB_VMEMMAP
Date: Thu,  7 Nov 2024 13:20:33 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241107202033.2721681-7-yuzhao@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20241107202033.2721681-1-yuzhao@google.com>

To use HVO, make sure that the kernel is booted with pseudo-NMI
enabled by "irqchip.gicv3_pseudo_nmi=1", as well as
"hugetlb_free_vmemmap=on" unless HVO is enabled by default.

Note that HVO checks the pseudo-NMI capability and is disabled at
runtime if that turns out not supported. Successfully enabling HVO
should have the following:
  # dmesg | grep NMI
  GICv3: Pseudo-NMIs enabled using ...
  # sysctl vm.hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap
  vm.hugetlb_optimize_vmemmap = 1

For comparison purposes, the whole series was measured against this
patch only, to show the overhead from pausing remote CPUs:
