Lockless processing of command operations in multiprocessor systems
A beltway mechanism that takes advantage of atomic locking mechanisms supported by certain classes of hardware processors to handle the tasks that require atomic access to data structures while also reducing the overhead associated with these atomic locking mechanisms.

| Zusammenfassung: | A beltway mechanism that takes advantage of atomic locking mechanisms supported by certain classes of hardware processors to handle the tasks that require atomic access to data structures while also reducing the overhead associated with these atomic locking mechanisms. The beltway mechanisms described herein can be used to control access to software and hardware facilities in an efficient manner. |
