摘要： Techniques for suspending execution of a thread until a specified memory access occurs. In one embodiment, a processor includes multiple execution units capable of executing multiple threads. A first thread includes an instruction that specifies a monitor address. Suspend logic suspends execution of the first thread, and a monitor causes resumption of the first thread in response to an access to the specified monitor address.
