I do several tests on pseries IBM,8408-E8E with 32cpus, 64GB memory, kernel 4.6 benchmark test results are below. 2 perf tests: perf bench futex hash perf bench futex lock-pi _____test________________spinlcok______________pv-qspinlcok_____ |futex hash | 528572 ops | 573238 ops | |futex lock-pi | 354 ops | 352 ops | scheduler test: Test how many loops of schedule() can finish within 10 seconds on all cpus. _____test________________spinlcok______________pv-qspinlcok_____ |schedule() loops| 340890082 | 331730973 | kernel compiling test: build a default linux kernel image to see how long it took _____test________________spinlcok______________pv-qspinlcok_____ | compiling takes| 22m | 22m | some notes: the performace is as good as current spinlock's. in some case better while some cases worse. But in some other tests(not listed here), we verify the two spinlock's workloads by perf record&report. pv-qspinlock is light-weight than current spinlock. This patch series depends on 2 patches: [patch]powerpc: Implement {cmp}xchg for u8 and u16 [patch]locking/pvqspinlock: Add lock holder CPU argument to pv_wait() from Waiman Some other patches in Waiman's "locking/pvqspinlock: Fix missed PV wakeup & support PPC" are not applied for now.
