[PATCH 9/9] qspinlock, x86, kvm: Implement KVM support for paravirt qspinlock
Implement the paravirt qspinlock for x86-kvm.
We use the regular paravirt call patching to switch between:
native_queue_spin_lock_slowpath() __pv_queue_spin_lock_slowpath()
native_queue_spin_unlock() __pv_queue_spin_unlock()
We use a callee saved call for the unlock function which reduces the
i-cache footprint and allows 'inlining' of SPIN_UNLOCK functions
again.
We further optimize the unlock path by patching the direct call with a
"movb $0,%arg1" if we are indeed using...

[PATCH 0/9] qspinlock stuff -v15
Hi Waiman,
As promised; here is the paravirt stuff I did during the trip to BOS last week.
All the !paravirt patches are more or less the same as before (the only real
change is the copyright lines in the first patch).
The paravirt stuff is 'simple' and KVM only -- the Xen code was a little more
convoluted and I've no real way to test that but it should be stright fwd to
make work.

[PATCH v15 00/15] qspinlock: a 4-byte queue spinlock with PV support
v14->v15:
- Incorporate PeterZ's v15 qspinlock patch and improve upon the PV
qspinlock code by dynamically allocating the hash table as well
as some other performance optimization.
- Simplified the Xen PV qspinlock code as suggested by David Vrabel
<david.vrabel at citrix.com>.
- Add benchmarking data for 3.19 kernel to compare the performance
of a spinlock heavy test

- Remove the lfsr patch and use linear probing as lfsr is not really

- Move the paravirt PV_CALLEE_SAVE_REGS_THUNK code to an asm header.
- Add a patch to collect PV qspinlock statistics which also
supersedes the PV lock hash debug patch.
- Add PV qspinlock performance numbers.
