jake 2003/04/06 10:05:26 PDT FreeBSD src repository Modified files: sys/sparc64/include cpufunc.h md_var.h sys/sparc64/sparc64 machdep.c pmap.c Log: Use the vis block copy/zero functions for pmap_copy_page and pmap_zero_page. These are called through function pointers so that different implementations can be provided for cheetah, where the block load instructions may or may not be a win, and so they can be disabled with the machdep.use_vis tunable. In terms of raw bandwidth the integer versions are faster, but not allocating lines in the L2 cache for useless data gives a measurable improvement in user time for the benchmarks I tested (mostly buildworld with -j8). As far as I can tell the instructions used are implemented on everything back to UltraSPARC I, so there should not be a problem with different cpu types.
