There will then be the problem of exactly how much space do you allocate for the spinlock
how do you know what the best cache size is to use on the processor that someone will buy next year and run the binary you compiled today on.

What about separating locks and data? Posted Jan 5, 2013 23:50 UTC (Sat) by giraffedata (subscriber, #1954) [Link] Aren't there runtime facilities in the kernel for tailoring behavior to the actual cache line size? Something like a cache line allocator?That would make this kind of memory layout feasible until they invent a more complex form of caching.
