# Synchronization primitives in the Linux kernel.
|
|
|
|
This chapter describes synchronization primitives in the Linux kernel.
|
|
|
|
* [Introduction to spinlocks](sync-1.md) - the first part of this chapter describes implementation of spinlock mechanism in the Linux kernel.
|
|
* [Queued spinlocks](sync-2.md) - the second part describes another type of spinlocks - queued spinlocks.
|
|
* [Semaphores](sync-3.md) - this part describes implementation of `semaphore` synchronization primitive in the Linux kernel.
|
|
* [Mutual exclusion](sync-4.md) - this part describes - `mutex` in the Linux kernel.
|
|
* [Reader/Writer semaphores](sync-5.md) - this part describes special type of semaphores - `reader/writer` semaphores.
|
|
* [Sequential locks](sync-6.md) - this part describes sequential locks in the Linux kernel.
