... i've done some timings on cli()/sti() latency, on IP basis. Most parts of the kernel are OK, they have less than 100 usecs of max latency. There is one thing why device driver writers take care of cli()/sti() latencies, it's the serial interrupt. ... Some hard data: on a 100 MHz Neptun dual CPU system, hardware interrupt latency is 10+-1 usecs, typical cli()/sti() latencies are on the order of 10 usecs. Some code like the IDE driver has latencies up to 100 usecs, occasionally higher. ...
