    Abstract: An apparatus, program product and method to manage access to a shared resource by a plurality of processes in a multithreaded computer via a collection of atomic operations that track both the order in which requests that use a shared resource are received, and the order in which processing of such requests are completed after they are received. Dispatching of requests is effectively deferred until processing of all non-dispatched requests that were received earlier than a most recently completed request has been completed. In many instances, completion of processing of requests can be performed non-atomically, thus reducing contention issues with respect to the shared resource. Furthermore, dispatching of requests may be batched to reduce the overhead associated with individual dispatch operations.

    Abstract translation: 一种用于通过多个线程计算机中的多个进程通过收集跟踪使用共享资源的请求的顺序的原子操作的集合来管理对共享资源的访问的装置,程序产品和方法,以及其中 这些请求的处理在收到之后完成。 有效地推迟请求的调度,直到处理在最近完成的请求之前接收到的所有未发送的请求已经完成。 在许多情况下,可以非原子地执行请求的处理完成,从而减少对共享资源的争用问题。 此外,可以批量发送请求以减少与各个调度操作相关联的开销。

    Abstract: A resource and partition manager of the preferred embodiments includes a lock mechanism that operates on a plurality of locks that control access to individual hardware resources. The resource and partition manager uses the lock mechanism to obtain a lock on a hardware resource when transferring control of the hardware resource to a logical partition that is powering on and when removing the hardware resource from a logical partition that is powering off. The resource and partition manager uses the lock mechanism to remove control of a hardware resource from, or return control to, an operating logical partition in order to facilitate hardware service operations on that hardware resource or on the physical enclosure in which it is contained. The preferred embodiments also include methods for releasing system resources and address bindings allocated to a hardware resource when control the hardware resource is removed from a logical partition.

    Abstract: A resource and partition manager of the preferred embodiments includes a lock mechanism that operates on a plurality of locks that control access to individual I/O slots. The resource and partition manager uses the lock mechanism to obtain a lock on an I/O slot when transferring control of the I/O slot to a logical partition that is powering on and when removing the I/O slot from a logical partition that is powering off. The resource and partition manager uses the lock mechanism to remove control of an I/O slot from, or return control to, an operating logical partition in order to facilitate hardware service operations on that I/O slot or on the physical enclosure in which it is contained.

Dispatching of requests is effectively deferred until processing of all non-dispatched requests that we re received earlier than a most recently completed request has been completed. In many instances, completion of processing of requests can be performed non- atomically, thus reducing contention issues with respect to the shared resource. Furthermore, dispatching of requests may be batched to reduce the overhead associated with individual dispatch operations.
