Scalable Spin Locks for Multiprogrammed Systems
Synchronization primitives for large shared-memory multiprocessors need to minimize latency and contention. Software queue-based locks address these goals, but suffer if a process...

Experiences with Locking in a NUMA Multiprocessor Operating System Kernel
We describe the lockingarchitecture of a new operating system, HURRICANE, designed for large scale shared-memory multiprocessors. Many papers already describe kernel lockingtechni...
