Subject: [thisops uV2 00/10] Upgrade of this_cpu_ops V2
Date: Fri, 26 Nov 2010 15:09:37 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20101126210937.383047168@linux.com> (raw)
A patchset that adds more this_cpu operations and in particular RMV operations
that can be used in various places to avoid address calculations and
memory accesses.
Also adds this_cpu_cmpxchg_double() which is a locally atomic version of
cmpxchg and uses that to demo how a lockless, preemptless fastpath for
memory allocation could work. Works good enough so that I can write this
email with that fastpath scheme.
V2 has several enhancements and bugfixes that were suggested.
