I wanted a synthetic test to help me understand the performance of Rik's proposed spinlock proportional backoff patches, and the synchro-test in andrew's mmotm tree looked like an obvious candidate to be extended, so I ended up with the following couple patches.
I'm not sure whats' the back story with synchro-test though - they seem to have been stuck in andrew's tree for a very long time now. Is there any reason delaying their inclusion or is it just that nobody's been pushing for them ?
