      locking: Implement an algorithm choice for Wound-Wait mutexes · 08295b3b
      Thomas Hellstrom authored
      The current Wound-Wait mutex algorithm is actually not Wound-Wait but
      Wait-Die. Implement also Wound-Wait as a per-ww-class choice. Wound-Wait
      is, contrary to Wait-Die a preemptive algorithm and is known to generate
      fewer backoffs. Testing reveals that this is true if the
      number of simultaneous contending transactions is small.
      As the number of simultaneous contending threads increases, Wait-Wound
      becomes inferior to Wait-Die in terms of elapsed time.
      Possibly due to the larger number of held locks of sleeping transactions.
      
      Update documentation and callers.

      Each thread runs 100000 batches of lock / unlock 800 ww mutexes randomly
      chosen out of 100000. Four core Intel x86_64:

      Wound-Wait   4              ~100       ~17s.
      Wait-Die     4              ~150000    ~19s.
      Wound-Wait   16             ~360000    ~109s.

      locking: WW mutex cleanup · 55f036ca
      Peter Ziljstra authored
      Make the WW mutex code more readable by adding comments, splitting up
      functions and pointing out that we're actually using the Wait-Die
      algorithm.
