Subject: [PATCH v2 2/7] asm-generic: barrier: add wait_policy handlers
Date: Fri, 2 May 2025 01:52:18 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250502085223.1316925-3-ankur.a.arora@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250502085223.1316925-1-ankur.a.arora@oracle.com>
smp_cond_load_relaxed_timewait() waits on a conditional variable
while either spinning or via some architectural primitive, while
also watching the clock.
The generic code presents the simple case where the waiting is done
exclusively via a cpu_relax() spin-wait loop. To keep the pipeline
as idle as possible, we want to do the time-check only intermittently.
How often the time-check is done -- which also determines how much we
overshoot the timeout by, is configured via the __smp_cond_timewait_coarse()
and __smp_cond_timewait_fine() wait policies.
