Currently sync.Mutex is fully cooperative. That is, once contention is discovered, the goroutine calls into scheduler. This is suboptimal as the resource can become free soon after (especially if critical sections are short). Server software usually runs at ~~50% CPU utilization, that is, switching to other goroutines is not necessary profitable. This change adds limited active spinning to sync.Mutex if: 1. running on a multicore machine and 2. GOMAXPROCS>1 and 3. there is at least one other running P and 4. local runq is empty. As opposed to runtime mutex we don't do passive spinning, because there can be work on global runq on on other Ps. benchmark old ns/op new ns/op delta BenchmarkMutexNoSpin 1271 1272 +0.08% BenchmarkMutexNoSpin-2 702 683 -2.71% BenchmarkMutexNoSpin-4 377 372 -1.33% BenchmarkMutexNoSpin-8 197 190 -3.55% BenchmarkMutexNoSpin-16 131 122 -6.87% BenchmarkMutexNoSpin-32 170 164 -3.53% BenchmarkMutexSpin 4724 4728 +0.08% BenchmarkMutexSpin-2 2501 2491 -0.40% BenchmarkMutexSpin-4 1330 1325 -0.38% BenchmarkMutexSpin-8 684 684 +0.00% BenchmarkMutexSpin-16 414 372 -10.14% BenchmarkMutexSpin-32 559 469 -16.10% BenchmarkMutex 19.1 19.1 +0.00% BenchmarkMutex-2 81.6 54.3 -33.46% BenchmarkMutex-4 143 100 -30.07% BenchmarkMutex-8 154 156 +1.30% BenchmarkMutex-16 140 159 +13.57% BenchmarkMutex-32 141 163 +15.60% BenchmarkMutexSlack 33.3 31.2 -6.31% BenchmarkMutexSlack-2 122 97.7 -19.92% BenchmarkMutexSlack-4 168 158 -5.95% BenchmarkMutexSlack-8 152 158 +3.95% BenchmarkMutexSlack-16 140 159 +13.57% BenchmarkMutexSlack-32 146 162 +10.96% BenchmarkMutexWork 154 154 +0.00% BenchmarkMutexWork-2 89.2 89.9 +0.78% BenchmarkMutexWork-4 139 86.1 -38.06% BenchmarkMutexWork-8 177 162 -8.47% BenchmarkMutexWork-16 170 173 +1.76% BenchmarkMutexWork-32 176 176 +0.00% BenchmarkMutexWorkSlack 160 160 +0.00% BenchmarkMutexWorkSlack-2 103 99.1 -3.79% BenchmarkMutexWorkSlack-4 155 148 -4.52% BenchmarkMutexWorkSlack-8 176 170 -3.41% BenchmarkMutexWorkSlack-16 170 173 +1.76% BenchmarkMutexWorkSlack-32 175 176 +0.57% "No work" benchmarks are not very interesting (BenchmarkMutex and BenchmarkMutexSlack), as they are absolutely not realistic.
