      [IA64] - Avoid slow TLB purges on SGI Altix systems · c1902aae
      Dean Roe authored
      flush_tlb_all() can be a scaling issue on large SGI Altix systems
      since it uses the global call_lock and always executes on all cpus.
      When a process enters flush_tlb_range() to purge TLBs for another
      process, it is possible to avoid flush_tlb_all() and instead allow
      sn2_global_tlb_purge() to purge TLBs only where necessary.
      
      This patch modifies flush_tlb_range() so that this case can be handled
      by platform TLB purge functions and updates ia64_global_tlb_purge()
      accordingly.  sn2_global_tlb_purge() now calculates the region register
      value from the mm argument introduced with this patch.

      Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
      even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
      archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
      3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
      git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
      infrastructure for it.
      
      Let it rip!
