There is a per device xarray storing mkeys that is used to store every mkey in the system. However, this xarray is now only read by ODP for certain ODP designated MRs (ODP, implicit ODP, MW, DEVX_INDIRECT). Create an xarray only for use by ODP, that only contains ODP related MKeys. This xarray is protected by SRCU and all erases are protected by a synchronize. This improves performance: - All MRs in the odp_mkeys xarray are ODP MRs, so some tests for is_odp() can be deleted. The xarray will also consume fewer nodes. - normal MR's are never mixed with ODP MRs in a SRCU data structure so performance sucking synchronize_srcu() on every MR destruction is not needed. - No smp_load_acquire(live) and xa_load() double barrier on read Due to the SRCU locking scheme care must be taken with the placement of the xa_store(). Once it completes the MR is immediately visible to other threads and only through a xa_erase() & synchronize_srcu() cycle could it be destroyed.

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.
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.
