We use the regular paravirt call patching to switch between: native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath() __pv_queued_spin_lock_slowpath() native_queued_spin_unlock() __pv_queued_spin_unlock() We use a callee saved call for the unlock function which reduces the i-cache footprint and allows 'inlining' of SPIN_UNLOCK functions again. We further optimize the unlock path by patching the direct call with a "movb $0,%arg1" if we are indeed using the native unlock code. This makes the unlock code almost as fast as the !PARAVIRT case. This significantly lowers the overhead of having CONFIG_PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS enabled, even for native code.
