[DTrace-devel] [PATCH 1/3] Cache per-CPU agg map IDs

From: Eugene Loh <eugene.loh at oracle.com>

The dt_bpf_map_lookup_fd(dtp->dt_aggmap_fd, &cpu) call that is used to
snap or truncate aggregations takes a few milliseconds, which seems all
right.  For large systems (e.g., 100 CPUs) and many truncations (e.g.,
tst.trunc.d, etc.), however, a trunc() might end up costing a minute on
the consumer side, which is unreasonable and causes such tests to time
out.  The run time is due almost exclusively to looking up the per-CPU
agg map ID.

Cache the per-CPU agg map IDs.
