Subject[PATCH 00/11] Parallel CPU bringup for x86_64
Date
Dusting off this patch series from February, in which we reduce the time 
taken for bringing up CPUs on a 96-way Skylake box from 500ms to about
34ms.

There is more parallelism to be had here, including a 1:many TSC sync
(or just *no* TSC sync, in the kexec case), and letting the APs all run
through their own states from CPUHP_BRINGUP_CPU to CPUHP_AP_ONLINE_IDLE
in parallel too. But I'll take a mere factor of 15 for the time being.

We can also have a careful look at the remaining time spent in the
initial INIT/SIPI phase and see what we can shave off it.

David Woodhouse (10):
x86/apic/x2apic: Fix parallel handling of cluster_mask
rcu: Kill rnp->ofl_seq and use only rcu_state.ofl_lock for exclusion
rcu: Add mutex for rcu boost kthread spawning and affinity setting
cpu/hotplug: Add dynamic parallel bringup states before CPUHP_BRINGUP_CPU
x86/smpboot: Reference count on smpboot_setup_warm_reset_vector()
x86/smpboot: Split up native_cpu_up into separate phases
cpu/hotplug: Move idle_thread_get() to <linux/smpboot.h>
x86/tsc: Avoid synchronizing TSCs with multiple CPUs in parallel
x86/smp: Bring up secondary CPUs in parallel
x86/kvm: Silence per-cpu pr_info noise about KVM clocks and steal time

Thomas Gleixner (1):
x86/boot: Support parallel startup of secondary CPUs
