Subject: [RFC PATCH v7 0/7] Restartable sequences system call
Date: Thu, 21 Jul 2016 17:14:15 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1469135662-31512-1-git-send-email-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> (raw)

Hi,

This is mostly a re-write of Paul Turner and Andrew Hunter's restartable
critical sections (percpu atomics), which brings the following main
benefits over Paul Turner's prior version (v2):

- The ABI is now architecture-agnostic, and it requires fewer
  instruction on the user-space fast path,
- Ported to ARM 32, in addition to cover x86 32/64. Adding support
  for new architectures is now trivial,
- Progress is ensured by a fall-back to locking (purely userspace)
  when single-stepped by a debugger.

This is v7, as it derives from my prior getcpu cache and thread local
ABI patchsets. You will find benchmark results in the changelog of
patch 1/7.

Feedback is welcome!

Thanks,

Mathieu
