| | | | | I'm continuing my exploration of the AArch64 architecture and this time I will touch on the AArch64 priviledge levels. Note that AArch64 priviledge model is not exactly the same as the previous iterations of ARM. While there are plenty of similarities, and there is a level of backward compatibility, at the same time, there are some differences as well. So do not assume that things covered here will work the same way for all ARMs. Finally, I assume that you're familiar with general GNU Assembler synatax or willing to figure things out as you go. Familiarity with ARM assmebly language will help, though I try to explain all the things I use. As always the code is available on GitHub. | |

| | | | | tl;dr "Transparent Hugepages" is a Linux kernel feature intended to improve performance by making more efficient use of your processor's memory-mapping hardware. It is enabled ("enabled=always") by default in most Linux distributions. Transparent Hugepages gives some applications a small performance improvement (~ 10% at best, 0-3% more typically), but can cause significant performance problems, or even apparent memory leaks at worst. To avoid these problems, you should set enabled=madvise on your server... | |

| | | | | [AI summary] The user has provided a comprehensive overview of the x86 architecture, covering topics such as basic arithmetic operations, control flow with jumps and conditionals, memory addressing modes, the stack and calling conventions, advanced instructions like SSE, virtual memory, and differences between x86-32 and x86-64. The user is likely looking for a summary or clarification of the x86 architecture, possibly for learning purposes or to reinforce their understanding. | |

| | | Prologue This is the pilot episode for what will become season 2 of the Linux Kernel Podcast. Back in 2008-2009 I recorded a daily "kernel podcast" that summarized the happenings of the Linux Kernel Mailing List (LKML). Eventually, daily became a little too much, and the podcast went weekly, followed by...not. This time around, I'm... | ||
