pfdat_hash_locks
pfdat_hash_locks(5) OBSOLETE pfdat_hash_locks(5)
NAME
pfdat_hash_locks - OBSOLETE kernel tunable parameter
DESCRIPTION
The tunable is obsolete and has been removed. HP-UX will automatically calculate the value based on the system configuration.
Global kernel structures containing information on a running process or memory usage are frequently accessed or modified by several threads
concurrently. To prevent race conditions, these structures are protected by spinlocks (kernel data used for synchronization) which allow
only the spinlock "holder" to proceed, while all others attempting to access the structure must wait.
Hashed spinlocks are used when each instance of such a data structure is to be protected, and there are several instances. Using a single
spinlock for all instances would cause too much contention, but using one spinlock per structure wastes memory while the majority of the
locks are unused at any given time.
By allocating a pool of hashed locks, a hash function picks one lock per group of structures, reducing contention while conserving memory.
The system-calculated value of sets the size of such a pool for the pfdat data structure spinlocks.
WARNINGS
All HP-UX kernel tunable parameters are release specific. This parameter may be removed or have its meaning changed in future releases of
HP-UX.
Installation of optional kernel software, from HP or other vendors, may cause changes to tunable parameter values. After installation,
some tunable parameters may no longer be at the default or recommended values. For information about the effects of installation on tun-
able values, consult the documentation for the kernel software being installed. For information about optional kernel software that was
factory installed on your system, see at
