[PATCH v3 3/3] spinlocks: Replace test-and-set locks by ticket locks

Tue Apr 6 02:53:54 BST 2021


Replace the test-and-set spinlock implementation with ticket locks
in order to get fairness (in form of FIFO order).

The implementation uses a 32-bit wide struct, which consists of
two 16-bit counters (owner and next). This is inspired by similar
spinlock implementations on other architectures.
This allows that the code works for both, RV32 and RV64.
