Alternatively if the intent wasn't to override this, then I can swap the order of the declarations to define the architecture first. |

Alright, can change that. I see past issues now that indicate why it uses the spin lock with nops (#1881 (comment)) |

The intent is to define this as nop, but previously it was then immediately overriding it for various architectures, causing a compiler warning on Windows.

ah, yep, it was missing at the obvious place |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
not only linux but *bsd as well - and probably other unixoid systems as well - this is just "assume sched_yield may work better with an unknown scheduler than doing nothing at all", and was historically what GotoBLAS/OpenBLAS would use on any host. perhaps simply leave out the comment ?
