I believe at least for seccomp it's worth to turn off the tsc, not just for HT but for the L2 cache too. So it's up to you, either you turn it off completely (which isn't very nice IMHO) or I recommend to apply this below patch. This has been tested successfully on x86-64 against current cogito repository (i686 compiles so I didn't bother testing ;). People selling the cpu through cpushare may appreciate this bit for a peace of mind. There's no way to get any timing info anymore with this applied (gettimeofday is forbidden of course). The seccomp environment is completely deterministic so it can't be allowed to get timing info, it has to be deterministic so in the future I can enable a computing mode that does a parallel computing for each task with server side transparent checkpointing and verification that the output is the same from all the 2/3 seller computers for each task, without the buyer even noticing (for now the verification is left to the buyer client side and there's no checkpointing, since that would require more kernel changes to track the dirty bits but it'll be easy to extend once the basic mode is finished). Eliminating a cold-cache read of the cr4 global variable will save one cacheline during the tlb flush while making the code per-cpu-safe at the same time. Thanks to Mikael Pettersson for noticing the tlb flush wasn't per-cpu-safe. The global tlb flush can run from irq (IPI calling do_flush_tlb_all) but it'll be transparent to the switch_to code since the IPI won't make any change to the cr4 contents from the point of view of the interrupted code and since it's now all per-cpu stuff, it will not race. So no need to disable irqs in switch_to slow path. Signed-off-by: Andrea Arcangeli <andrea@cpushare.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
