Subject: [RFC][PATCH] mutex: Optimize mutex_trylock() fast-path
Date: Wed, 1 Jun 2016 20:58:15 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160601185815.GW3190@twins.programming.kicks-ass.net> (raw)


A while back Viro posted a number of 'interesting' mutex_is_locked()
users on IRC, one of those was RCU.

RCU seems to use mutex_is_locked() to avoid doing mutex_trylock(), the
regular load before modify pattern.

While the use isn't wrong per se, its curious in that its needed at all,
mutex_trylock() should be good enough on its own to avoid the pointless
cacheline bounces.

So fix those and remove the mutex_is_locked() (ab)use from RCU.
