Component PARAVIRT_SPINLOCKS

Component Type: kbuild config

Description: Paravirtualization layer for spinlocks

More info: Paravirtualized spinlocks allow a pvops backend to replace the spinlock implementation with something virtualization-friendly (for example, block the virtual CPU rather than spinning). It has a minimal impact on native kernels and gives a nice performance benefit on paravirtualized KVM / Xen kernels. If you are unsure how to answer this question, answer Y.
