Subject: [PATCH RFC V11 8/18] x86/pvticketlock: When paravirtualizing ticket locks, increment by 2
Date: Mon, 22 Jul 2013 11:48:22 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130722061822.24737.54652.sendpatchset@codeblue> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20130722061631.24737.75508.sendpatchset@codeblue>

x86/pvticketlock: When paravirtualizing ticket locks, increment by 2

From: Jeremy Fitzhardinge <jeremy@goop.org>

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.
