Subject: [PATCH 3/6] MIPS: Octeon: qspinlock: Flush write buffer
Date: Wed, 27 Jan 2021 21:36:24 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210127203627.47510-4-alexander.sverdlin@nokia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20210127203627.47510-1-alexander.sverdlin@nokia.com>
From: Alexander Sverdlin <alexander.sverdlin@nokia.com>
Flushing the write buffer brings aroung 10% performace on the tight
uncontended spinlock loops on Octeon. Refer to commit 500c2e1fdbcc
("MIPS: Optimize spinlocks.").
