Subject[PATCH v4 0/4] riscv: Add qspinlock/qrwlock
Date
From: Guo Ren <guoren@linux.alibaba.com>

Current riscv is still using baby spinlock implementation. It'll cause
fairness and cache line bouncing problems. Many people are involved
and pay the efforts to improve it:

- The first version of patch was made in 2019.1:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/20190211043829.30096-1-michaeljclark@mac.com/#r

- The second version was made in 2020.11:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-riscv/1606225437-22948-2-git-send-email-guoren@kernel.org/

- A good discussion at Platform HSC.2021-03-08:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ooqdnIsYx7XKor5O1XTtM6D1CHp4hc0p

Hope your comments and Tested-by or Co-developed-by or Reviewed-by ...

Let's kick the qspinlock into riscv right now (Also for the
architecture which hasn't xchg16 atomic instruction.)

Change V4:
- Remove custom sub-word xchg implementation
- Add ARCH_USE_QUEUED_SPINLOCKS_XCHG32 in locking/qspinlock

Change V3:
- Coding convention by Peter Zijlstra's advices

Change V2:
- Coding convention in cmpxchg.h
- Re-implement short xchg
- Remove char & cmpxchg implementations

Guo Ren (3):
riscv: cmpxchg.h: Cleanup unused code
riscv: cmpxchg.h: Merge macros
riscv: cmpxchg.h: Implement xchg for short

Michael Clark (1):
riscv: Convert custom spinlock/rwlock to generic qspinlock/qrwlock
