[PATCH v3 4/6] powerpc/64s: implement queued spinlocks and rwlocks

Nicholas Piggin npiggin at gmail.com
Mon Jul 6 14:35:38 AEST 2020


These have shown significantly improved performance and fairness when
spinlock contention is moderate to high on very large systems.

 [ Numbers hopefully forthcoming after more testing, but initial
   results look good ]

Thanks to the fast path, single threaded performance is not noticably
hurt.
