Subject: [libre-riscv-dev] spinlocks considered harmful
Date: Fri, 8 May 2020 16:20:27 -0700
Message-ID: <CAC2bXD5L6ZK-Vmb5b2C8X2=BcecybqFkFWjpNWcuMB=utuuNXw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I ended up reporting a bug to PyO3 to not use spinlocks, the explanatory
blog post I liked to is quite informative and I'd consider it recommended
reading for anyone writing multi-threaded programs and/or using atomics:
