I'm using AEP with dax_kmem drvier, and AEP is export as a NUMA node in
my system. I will move cold pages from DRAM node to AEP node with
move_pages system call. With old "rep movsq', it costs 2030ms to move
1 GB pages. With "movnti", it only cost about 890ms to move 1GB pages.
I also test move 1GB pages from AEP node to DRAM node. But the result is
unexpected. "rep movesq" cost about 372 ms while "movnti" cost about
477ms. As said in X86 , "movnti" could avoid "polluting the caches" in
this situaction. I don't know if it's general result or just happening
in my machine. Hardware information is as follow:
