It was observed that on an Intel x86 system without the ARAT (Always running APIC timer) feature and with fairly large number of CPUs as well as CPUs coming in and out of intel_idle frequently, the lock contention on the tick_broadcast_lock can become significant. To reduce contention, the lock is put into its own cacheline and all the cpumask_var_t variables are put into the __read_mostly section. Running the SP benchmark of the NAS Parallel Benchmarks on a 4-socket 16-core 32-thread Nehalam system, the performance number improved from 3353.94 Mop/s to 3469.31 Mop/s when this patch was applied on a 4.9.6 kernel. This is a 3.4% improvement.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
