- A single commit which reduces cacheline misses in
__x2apic_send_IPI_mask() significantly by converting
x86_cpu_to_logical_apicid() to an array instead of using per CPU
storage. This reduces the cost for a full broadcast on a dual socket
system with 256 CPUs from 33 down to 11 microseconds.

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.
