Subject: [PATCH] sysdeps: Add 'get_fast_jitter' interace in fast-jitter.h
|
|
Content-type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
|
|
|
|
'get_fast_jitter' is meant to be used purely for performance
|
|
purposes. In all cases it's used it should be acceptable to get no
|
|
randomness (see default case). An example use case is in setting
|
|
jitter for retries between threads at a lock. There is a
|
|
performance benefit to having jitter, but only if the jitter can
|
|
be generated very quickly and ultimately there is no serious issue
|
|
if no jitter is generated.
|
|
|
|
The implementation generally uses 'HP_TIMING_NOW' iff it is
|
|
inlined (avoid any potential syscall paths).
