* spin_begin is used before beginning a busy-wait loop, and must be paired
|
|
* with spin_end when the loop is exited. spin_cpu_relax must be called
|
|
* within the loop.
|
|
*
|
|
* The loop body should be as small and fast as possible, on the order of
|
|
* tens of instructions/cycles as a guide. It should and avoid calling
|
|
* cpu_relax, or any "spin" or sleep type of primitive including nested uses
|
|
* of these primitives. It should not lock or take any other resource.
|
|
* Violations of these guidelies will not cause a bug, but may cause sub
|
|
* optimal performance.
|
|
*
|
|
* These loops are optimized to be used where wait times are expected to be
|
|
* less than the cost of a context switch (and associated overhead).
|
|
*
|
|
* Detection of resource owner and decision to spin or sleep or guest-yield
|
|
* (e.g., spin lock holder vcpu preempted, or mutex owner not on CPU) can be
|
|
* tested within the loop body.
