From 07cde313b2d21f728cec2836db7cdb55476f7a26 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Fri, 23 Mar 2018 14:58:17 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] x86/msr: Allow rdmsr_safe_on_cpu() to schedule High latencies can be observed caused by a daemon periodically reading various MSR on all cpus. On KASAN enabled kernels ~10ms latencies can be observed simply reading one MSR. Even without KASAN, sending an IPI to a CPU, which is in a deep sleep state or in a long hard IRQ disabled section, waiting for the answer can consume hundreds of microseconds. All usage sites are in preemptible context, convert rdmsr_safe_on_cpu() to use a completion instead of busy polling. Overall daemon cpu usage was reduced by 35 %, and latencies caused by msr_read() disappeared.
