hi - very nice and clearly explained video. What is test and lock? how it works? What is the assembly instruction equivalent to test and lock in x86 or ARM controller?

[@MrGeorge1896]

To give a real world example of an x86 code sequence:
movb $1, %dl
.L8:
movl %edx, %eax
xchgb Get_Lock(%rip), %al
testb %al, %al
jne .L8
It is important to know that xchg is an atomic instruction, which can not be interrupted.

线程 sleep 了， CPU 此时，能做别的事情吗？

[@sakkamouid3343]

I don't like reading a text from google. If you wrote example of little simple programs and discussed them while applying those concepts would be a lot better to explain to people!
