      tom almost runs xv6 well.  xv6 runs into, what looks like, some APIC
      issues.

      Re-enable lazy TLB shootdowns; they are somewhat useful after all. · 96b3c5e7
      Nickolai Zeldovich 提交于
      Some results from mapbench on josmp (with DEBUG 0 and VM_RADIX):
      
      When TLB shootdowns are disabled (comment out tlbflush in vmap::remove),
      mapbench is perfectly scalable (perhaps a little slow, but it's hard to
      tell, because I didn't used to run with readaccess=1):
      
        $ time mapbench 1
        12403435727 cycles
        $ time mapbench 2
        12439895511 cycles
        $ time mapbench 16
        12200449501 cycles
      
      With TLB shootdowns, things are slightly less scalable, and significantly
      slower:
      
        $ time mapbench 1
        40044138778 cycles
        $ time mapbench 2
        44034668320 cycles
        $ time mapbench 16
        57569203944 cycles
      
      Lazy TLB shootdowns improve performance on 1 core, and have some but
      not nearly perfect scalability:
      
        $ time mapbench 1
        12658404885 cycles
        $ time mapbench 2
        29790759720 cycles
        $ time mapbench 16
        39160961925 cycles
      
      Next step is to understand why TLB shootdowns are so expensive and how
      to make them cheaper/scalable.
