This &#8220;TLBID&#8221; feature is an upcoming Arm architecture capability designed to increase performance on high core count systems.<\/p>\n<p>With TLBID there is the ability to perform Translation Lookaside Buffer (TLB) invalidation on just a subset of the CPU cores rather than always performing TLB invalidation system-wide.&#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>They are working on plumbing the Linux kernel support so TLBI commands are sent only to the CPUs where a given process was running to avoid the overhead of clearing the TLB for the entire system. This will be particularly beneficial for high core count Arm server processors.&#13;\n<\/p>\n<p>No performance numbers were shared and with this TLBID not yet part of the Arm Architecture Reference Manual, it will likely be some time before seeing it in silicon.&#13;<br \/>\n<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/1791084251_210_image.webp\" alt=\"TLBID patches\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Besides the Linux kernel patches, the ARM64 TLBID support also depends upon LLVM 23 and newer or GNU Binutils 2.46 and newer for the necessary instruction support.<\/p>\n<p>Those interested in this TLBID work for future Arm processor designs can be found via the <a href=\"https:\/\/lore.kernel.org\/linux-acpi\/20261001110655.461473-1-kristina.martsenko@arm.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Linux kernel mailing list<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Arm sent out an initial set of patches this week working on support in the Linux kernel for&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":644177,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[7165,61,60,7164,7162,7161,7168,7166,7163,7167,7160,7171,80,7169,7170],"class_list":["post-644176","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-technology","tag-desktop-linux","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-linux-benchmarking","tag-linux-hardware-benchmarks","tag-linux-hardware-reviews","tag-linux-how-to","tag-linux-performance","tag-linux-server-benchmarks","tag-open-source-graphics","tag-phoronix","tag-phoronix-test-suite","tag-technology","tag-ubuntu-benchmarks","tag-ubuntu-hardware"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/644176","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=644176"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/644176\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/644177"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=644176"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=644176"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=644176"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
