67 * 2. You want "this cpu's version" of the object AND
68 * 3. You want to do this safely since:
69 * a. On multiprocessors, you don't want to switch between cpus after
70 * you've read the current processor id due to preemption -- this would
71 * take away the implicit advantage to not have any kind of traditional
72 * serialization for per-cpu data
73 * b. On uniprocessors, you don't want another kernel thread messing
74 * up with the same per-cpu data due to preemption
76 * So, Use get_cpu_ptr to disable preemption and get pointer to the
77 * local cpu version of the per-cpu object. Use put_cpu_ptr to enable
78 * preemption. Operations on per-cpu data between get_ and put_ is
79 * then considered to be safe. And ofcourse, "Thou shalt not sleep between
80 * get_cpu_ptr and put_cpu_ptr"
