H A Dhash_4k.cdiff 6b34a099faa123488b13caf704562f4dbe483fc4 Mon Oct 24 05:01:50 CEST 2022 Nicholas Piggin <npiggin@gmail.com> powerpc/64s/hash: add stress_hpt kernel boot option to increase hash faults

This option increases the number of hash misses by limiting the number
of kernel HPT entries, by keeping a per-CPU record of the last kernel
HPTEs installed, and removing that from the hash table on the next hash
insertion. A timer round-robins CPUs removing remaining kernel HPTEs and
clearing the TLB (in the case of bare metal) to increase and slightly
randomise kernel fault activity.
