This optimization significantly reduces xhci driver load time. In ACPI tables the acpi companion port devices are children of the hub device. The port devices are identified by their port number returned by the ACPI _ADR method. _ADR 0 is reserved for the root hub device. The current implementation to find a acpi companion port device loops through all acpi port devices under that parent hub, evaluating their _ADR method each time a new port device is added. for a xHC controller with 25 ports under its roothub it will end up invoking ACPI bytecode 625 times before all ports are ready, making it really slow. The _ADR values are already read and cached earler. So instead of running the bytecode again we can check the cached _ADR value first, and then fall back to the old way. As one of the more significant changes, the xhci load time on Intel kabylake reduced by 70%, (28ms) from initcall xhci_pci_init+0x0/0x49 returned 0 after 39537 usecs to initcall xhci_pci_init+0x0/0x49 returned 0 after 11270 usecs Signed-off-by: Mathias Nyman <mathias.nyman@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> |

README
Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. 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.
