[Devel] [PATCH 06/11] checkpoint: enable c/r for bsr driver

Wed Oct 20 11:56:41 PDT 2010


BSR (Barrier Synchronization Register) is a IBM POWER-specific
register which can be used for fast synchronization on large systems
without cacheline bouncing.  This is a system-wide register and it is
not virtualized or context-switched.

Enable checkpoint and restart of BSR device mappings.  It is up to the
user/admin to initialize a job's BSR correctly when restarting or
migrating.
