Subject: [PATCH 05/13] x86/ticketlocks: when paravirtualizing ticket locks, increment by 2
Date: Thu,  1 Sep 2011 17:54:58 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <076a86852aaa1ce14cf2216abfceea20d366fd98.1314922370.git.jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1314922370.git.jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1314922370.git.jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com>

From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy.fitzhardinge@citrix.com>

Increment ticket head/tails by 2 rather than 1 to leave the LSB free
to store a "is in slowpath state" bit.  This halves the number
of possible CPUs for a given ticket size, but this shouldn't matter
in practice - kernels built for 32k+ CPU systems are probably
specially built for the hardware rather than a generic distro
kernel.
