Reader bias based locking technique enabling high read concurrency for read-mostly workloads

Granted: April 30, 2024
Patent Number: 11972777
A data object has a lock and a condition indicator associated with it. Based at least partly on detecting a first setting of the condition indicator, a reader stores an indication that the reader has obtained read access to the data object in an element of a readers structure and reads the data object without acquiring the lock. A writer detects the first setting and replaces it with a second setting, indicating that the lock is to be acquired by readers before reading the data object.…
