Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH v1] x86: Use `3/4*sizeof(per-thread-L3)` as low bound
|
|
for NT threshold.
|
|
Content-type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
|
|
|
|
On some machines we end up with incomplete cache information. This can
|
|
make the new calculation of `sizeof(total-L3)/custom-divisor` end up
|
|
lower than intended (and lower than the prior value). So reintroduce
|
|
the old bound as a lower bound to avoid potentially regressing code
|
|
where we don't have complete information to make the decision.
