This patch adds support for spinlocks in Asterisk. ...
There are cases in Asterisk where it might be desirable to lock
a short critical code section but not incur the context switch
and yield penalty of a mutex or rwlock. The primary spinlock
implementations execute exclusively in userspace and therefore
don't incur those penalties. Spinlocks are NOT meant to be a
general replacement for mutexes. They should be used only for
protecting short blocks of critical code such as simple compares
and assignments. Operations that may block, hold a lock, or
cause the thread to give up it's timeslice should NEVER be
attempted in a spinlock.
The first use case for spinlocks is in astobj2 - internal_ao2_ref.
Currently the manipulation of the reference counter is done with
an ast_atomic_fetchadd_int which works fine. When weak reference
containers are introduced however, there's an additional comparison
and assignment that'll need to be done while the lock is held.
A mutex would be way too expensive here, hence the spinlock.
Given that lock contention in this situation would be infrequent,
the overhead of the spinlock is only a few more machine instructions
than the current ast_atomic_fetchadd_int call.
