SubjectAdding kmap_atomic_prot_pfn (was: [git pull] drm patches for 2.6.27-rc1)
From
Date
We just ran some numbers on a box with PAT enabled and broken MTRRs.
Finally we have a test platform for the difference between kmap_atomic
and kmap_atomic_prot. Using regular kmap_atomic on this platform, we get
UC access to the graphics device; sending data from the CPU is a bit
slow. Adding kmap_atomic_prot_pfn and specifying WC access raises that
by a fairly significant factor, taking our CPU utilization for
copy_from_user from 40% to 2%.

Here's a patch which adds kmap_atomic_prot_pfn to the kernel for this
usage. When we add native io-mapping support instead of sitting on top
of kmap, we can remove this function.

I've reworked the io_mapping patches to use this function as well, along
with cleaning up the i915 code along the lines of Linus' current
version. I'll post those if this patch looks acceptable.

Subject: [PATCH] Add kmap_atomic_prot_pfn

kmap_atomic_prot_pfn is a mixture of kmap_atomic_prot and kmap_atomic_pfn,
accepting both a pfn instead of a page and an explicit protection value.
