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