2  * MCS lock defines
3  *
4  * This file contains the main data structure and API definitions of MCS lock.
5  *
6  * The MCS lock (proposed by Mellor-Crummey and Scott) is a simple spin-lock
7  * with the desirable properties of being fair, and with each cpu trying
8  * to acquire the lock spinning on a local variable.
9  * It avoids expensive cache bouncings that common test-and-set spin-lock
10  * implementations incur.
