| H A D | padata.h | 004ed426 Wed Jun 03 17:59:43 CDT 2020 Daniel Jordan <daniel.m.jordan@oracle.com> padata: add basic support for multithreaded jobs
Sometimes the kernel doesn't take full advantage of system memory
bandwidth, leading to a single CPU spending excessive time in
initialization paths where the data scales with memory size.
Multithreading naturally addresses this problem.
Extend padata, a framework that handles many parallel yet singlethreaded
jobs, to also handle multithreaded jobs by adding support for splitting up
the work evenly, specifying a minimum amount of work that's appropriate
for one helper thread to do, load balancing between helpers, and
coordinating them.
This is inspired by work from Pavel Tatashin and Steve Sistare.
