Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] powerpc/64s: Make POWER10 and later use pause_short in cpu_relax loops
Date: Wed, 20 Jul 2022 23:21:32 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220720132132.903462-2-npiggin@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220720132132.903462-1-npiggin@gmail.com>

We want to move away from using SMT prioroty updates for cpu_relax, and
use a 'wait' instruction which is similar to x86. As well as being a
much better fit for what everybody else uses and tests with, priority
nops are stateful which is nasty (interrupts have to consider they might
be taken at a different priority), and they're expensive to execute,
similar to a mtSPR which can effect other threads in the pipe.

Unfortunately qemu TCG does not emulate pause_short properly and will
cause hangs. I have a patch for it but not merged yet. But if we tune
qspinlock code it would be best to do it with this patch.
