[PATCH 1/4, v2] x86: enlightenment for ticket spin locks - base implementation

From: Jan Beulich
Date: Tue Jun 29 2010 - 10:31:18 EST


Add optional (alternative instructions based) callout hooks to the
contended ticket lock and the ticket unlock paths, to allow hypervisor
specific code to be used for reducing/eliminating the bad effects
ticket locks have on performance when running virtualized.

Note that the lock callout passes the full ticket:current pair in the
case of NR_CPUS < 256, but passes only the ticket otherwise. Making
this consistent would be possible, but at the expense of increasing
the stub sizes for one of the two cases (which seems undesirable to
me).

The only additional overhead this introduces for native execution is
a nop in the release paths, which, if considered undesirable, a
subsequent (optional) patch will eliminate again.

For the moment, this isn't intended to be used together with pv-ops,
but this is just to simplify initial integration. The ultimate goal
for this should still be to replace pv-ops spinlocks.

This requires adjustments to the alternative instruction patching,
since locked instructions may now both get patched out and reside in
replacement code.
