[PATCH memory-model 05/19] tools/memory-order: Improve key for SELF and SV

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

 



The key for "SELF" was missing completely and the key for "SV" was
a bit obtuse.  This commit therefore adds a key for "SELF" and improves
the one for "SV".
