202 * Each cpu has a pair of open-addressed hashtables for pending
203 * profile hits. read_profile() IPI's all cpus to request them
204 * to flip buffers and flushes their contents to prof_buffer itself.
205 * Flip requests are serialized by the profile_flip_mutex. The sole
206 * use of having a second hashtable is for avoiding cacheline
207 * contention that would otherwise happen during flushes of pending
208 * profile hits required for the accuracy of reported profile hits
209 * and so resurrect the interrupt livelock issue.
211 * The open-addressed hashtables are indexed by profile buffer slot
212 * and hold the number of pending hits to that profile buffer slot on
213 * a cpu in an entry. When the hashtable overflows, all pending hits
214 * are accounted to their corresponding profile buffer slots with
215 * atomic_add() and the hashtable emptied. As numerous pending hits
216 * may be accounted to a profile buffer slot in a hashtable entry,
217 * this amortizes a number of atomic profile buffer increments likely
218 * to be far larger than the number of entries in the hashtable,
219 * particularly given that the number of distinct profile buffer
220 * positions to which hits are accounted during short intervals (e.g.
221 * several seconds) is usually very small. Exclusion from buffer
222 * flipping is provided by interrupt disablement (note that for
223 * SCHED_PROFILING profile_hit() may be called from process context).
224 * The hash function is meant to be lightweight as opposed to strong,
225 * and was vaguely inspired by ppc64 firmware-supported inverted
226 * pagetable hash functions, but uses a full hashtable full of finite
227 * collision chains, not just pairs of them.
