[RFC] change non-atomic bitops method

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This patch change non-atomic bitops,
add a if() condition to test it, before set/clear the bit.
so that we don't need dirty the cache line, if this bit
have been set or clear. On SMP system, dirty cache line will
need invalidate other processors cache line, this will have
some impact on SMP systems.
