[PATCH v3 3/6] powerpc: lib/locks.c: Add cpu yield/wake helper function

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



pv-qspinlock core has pv_wait/pv_kick which will give a better
performace by yielding and kicking cpu at some cases.
lets support them by adding two corresponding helper functions.
