[patch 15/32] [PATCH] spinlock: check virtual cpu running status

From: Martin Schwidefsky
Date: Wed Feb 24 2010 - 03:49:04 EST


From: Gerald Schaefer <gerald.schaefer@xxxxxxxxxx>

This patch introduces a new function that checks the running status
of a cpu in a hypervisor. This status is not virtualized, so the check
is only correct if running in an LPAR. On acquiring a spinlock, if the
cpu holding the lock is scheduled by the hypervisor, we do a busy wait
on the lock. If it is not scheduled, we yield over to that cpu.
