    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal

          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: fpizlo at apple.com

At time of writing, you could choose between Lock, which is a sizeof(void*) lock implementation with some nice theoretical properties, and ByteLock, which is a sizeof(uint8_t) lock implementation that empirically performs as well or better.

Clearly, we should make Lock use ByteLock's superior algorithm and get rid of ByteLock.
