Re: [RFC PATCH 00/18] mm: arm64: Add kernel replication feature

From: "David Hildenbrand (Arm)" <david@kernel.org>

Also in: linux-arm-kernel, lkml

For me, it looks like the kernel text and rodata replication could be
adapted on top of the "Optimize this_cpu_*" patch set.
Problems with pgd synchronizations are the same and should be fixed as well.
Since vmalloc code is used for percpu memory allocations, module replication
might be supported, the only thing that should be taken into account -
data locality.
Consider all of this, we can focus on preparing the new patch series, on top of
the Yang Shi's patches and share it. If that path is ok, we will start.
I would wait for feedback from arm64 maintainers before moving forward with this
plan.
