Also, there is another problem with a lost wakeup if
the #StoreLoad ordering is not properly honored...


WRT Mill, I understand that it will work if the affinity
masks bind everything to a single chip... Right?

What about inter-chip communication? Do I have to
use something special for that, like a message passing
interface?

Will the eventcount work with #StoreLoad ordering if
multiple producers/consumers are executing on different
physical chips and/or cores within a single chip?
