Forthcoming IvyBridge CPUs promised to provide optimizations in the form of INVPCID instructions that allow to optimize TLB - shootdown handlers. Patch above uses the instruction on the + shootdown handlers. The patch above uses the instruction on the capable CPU. Todo items are to get access to IvyBridge and do the benchmarks.

Future work might provde SEP support, use hardware random +

Future work might provide SEP support, use hardware random generator from IvyBridge for random(4), considering using faster instructions to access fs% and gs% bases, and use improved AES-NI instruction set for aesni(4).
