Subject: [PATCH RFC V6 7/11] x86/pvticketlock: use callee-save for lock_spinning
Date: Wed, 21 Mar 2012 15:51:59 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120321102159.473.94357.sendpatchset@codeblue.in.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120321102041.473.61069.sendpatchset@codeblue.in.ibm.com>
From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com>
Although the lock_spinning calls in the spinlock code are on the
uncommon path, their presence can cause the compiler to generate many
more register save/restores in the function pre/postamble, which is in
the fast path. To avoid this, convert it to using the pvops callee-save
calling convention, which defers all the save/restores until the actual
function is called, keeping the fastpath clean.
