We have a special segment descriptor entry in the GDT, whose sole purpose is to encode the CPU and node numbers in its limit (size) field. There are user-space instructions that allow the reading of the limit field, which gives us a really fast way to read the CPU and node IDs from the vDSO for example. But the naming of related functionality does not make this clear, at all: VDSO_CPU_SIZE VDSO_CPU_MASK __CPU_NUMBER_SEG GDT_ENTRY_CPU_NUMBER vdso_encode_cpu_node vdso_read_cpu_node There's a number of problems: - The 'VDSO_CPU_SIZE' doesn't really make it clear that these are number of bits, nor does it make it clear which 'CPU' this refers to, i.e. that this is about a GDT entry whose limit encodes the CPU and node number. - Furthermore, the 'CPU_NUMBER' naming is actively misleading as well, because the segment limit encodes not just the CPU number but the node ID as well ... So use a better nomenclature all around: name everything related to this trick as 'CPUNODE', to make it clear that this is something special, and add _BITS to make it clear that these are number of bits, and propagate this to every affected name: VDSO_CPU_SIZE => VDSO_CPUNODE_BITS VDSO_CPU_MASK => VDSO_CPUNODE_MASK __CPU_NUMBER_SEG => __CPUNODE_SEG GDT_ENTRY_CPU_NUMBER => GDT_ENTRY_CPUNODE vdso_encode_cpu_node => vdso_encode_cpunode vdso_read_cpu_node => vdso_read_cpunode This, beyond being less confusing, also makes it easier to grep for all related functionality: $ git grep -i cpunode arch/x86 Also, while at it, fix "return is not a function" style sloppiness in vdso_encode_cpunode().
