Subject: [PATCH v5 2/4] qrwlock x86: Enable x86 to use queue read/write lock
Date: Mon, 4 Nov 2013 12:17:18 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1383585440-4391-3-git-send-email-Waiman.Long@hp.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1383585440-4391-1-git-send-email-Waiman.Long@hp.com>
This patch makes the necessary changes at the x86 architecture specific
layer to enable the presence of the CONFIG_QUEUE_RWLOCK kernel option
to replace the read/write lock by the queue read/write lock.
It also enables CONFIG_ARCH_QUEUE_RWLOCK which will force the use
of queue read/write lock for x86 which tends to have the largest
NUMA machines compared with the other architectures. This patch will
improve the scalability of those large machines.
