Abstract

Apparatuses, methods and storage medium associated with spinlock are disclosed herein. In embodiments, an apparatus for computing may comprise a first and a second processor core to correspondingly execute a first and a second thread; a storage location to store a spinlock to facilitate exclusive access by the first or the second thread to a plurality of resources implicitly shared by the first and second threads; and spin logic to be executed by the second processor core to occupy the second processor core to suspend execution of the second thread to prevent the second thread from using any one of the implicitly shared resources, whenever the spinlock is set by the first thread for exclusive access to one or more of the implicitly shared resources. Other embodiments may be disclosed or claimed.
