| |
this is version -V9 of the generic mutex subsystem. It consists of the following 13 patches:
add-atomic-xchg.patch mutex-generic-asm-implementations.patch mutex-asm-mutex.h-i386.patch mutex-asm-mutex.h-x86_64.patch mutex-asm-mutex.h-arm.patch mutex-arch-mutex-h.patch mutex-core.patch mutex-docs.patch mutex-debug.patch mutex-debug-more.patch xfs-use-mutexes.patch vfs-i-sem-to-mutex.patch vfs-use-more-mutexes.patch
the patches are against Linus' latest GIT tree, and they should work fine on every Linux architecture.
i have tested all 5 mutex implementation variants under MUTEX_DEBUG_FULL on x86: native, -dec, -xchg, -null and debug.
Changes since -V8:
93 files changed, 502 insertions(+), 500 deletions(-)
- ARMv6: __mutex_fastpath_trylock micro-optimization (Nicolas Pitre)
- asm-generic/mutex-xchg.h: better __mutex_fastpath_trylock implementation (Nicolas Pitre)
- XFS: use mutexes directly (Jes Sorensen)
- experimental conversion of VFS: change i_sem to i_mutex (Jes Sorensen)
