There is a lot more of going to sleep here than the PV ticketlock. In there the CPU would go to sleep and wait until it was its turn in. Here we need go to sleep when we are at the queue and then wake up to move a bit. That means the next in the line has at least two halt and wakeups? How does it compare to the PV ticketlocks that exists right now? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
