Subject[PATCH v3 0/9] Parallel CPU bringup for x86_64
Date
Doing the INIT/SIPI/SIPI in parallel for all APs and *then* waiting for
them shaves about 80% off the AP bringup time on a 96-thread socket
Skylake box (EC2 c5.metal) — from about 500ms to 100ms.

There are more wins to be had with further parallelisation, but this is
the simple part.

v2: Cut it back to just INIT/SIPI/SIPI in parallel for now, nothing more
v3: Clean up x2apic patch, add MTRR optimisation, lock topology update
in preparation for more parallelisation.


David Woodhouse (8):
x86/apic/x2apic: Fix parallel handling of cluster_mask
cpu/hotplug: Move idle_thread_get() to <linux/smpboot.h>
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 and document them
x86/smpboot: Send INIT/SIPI/SIPI to secondary CPUs in parallel
x86/mtrr: Avoid repeated save of MTRRs on boot-time CPU bringup
x86/smpboot: Serialize topology updates for secondary bringup

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