Lazy TLB mode can result in an idle CPU being woken up by a TLB flush, when all it really needs to do is reload %CR3 at the next context switch, assuming no page table pages got freed. Memory ordering is used to prevent race conditions between switch_mm_irqs_off, which checks whether .tlb_gen changed, and the TLB invalidation code, which increments .tlb_gen whenever page table entries get invalidated. The atomic increment in inc_mm_tlb_gen is its own barrier; the context switch code adds an explicit barrier between reading tlbstate.is_lazy and next->context.tlb_gen. Unlike the 2016 version of this patch, CPUs with cpu_tlbstate.is_lazy set are not removed from the mm_cpumask(mm), since that would prevent the TLB flush IPIs at page table free time from being sent to all the CPUs that need them. This patch reduces total CPU use in the system by about 1-2% for a memcache workload on two socket systems, and by about 1% for a heavily multi-process netperf between two systems.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
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.
