So if there are things that rcu_dereference.rst is missing, they do
need to be added.
As far as I can see, there is no mention of "address dependency"
in rcu_dereference.rst.
Yes, I see the discussion in rcu_dereference.rst is all about how
not to break address dependency by proper uses of rcu_dereference()
and its friends.  But that might not be obvious for readers who
followed the references placed in memory-barriers.txt.

Using the term "address dependency" somewhere in rcu_dereference.rst
should help such readers, I guess.


I think that's a good point.

Thanks for the response, I started thinking my mails aren't getting through
again.
Jonas, FWIW, your email archived at

     https://lore.kernel.org/linux-doc/1c731fdc-9383-21f2-b2d0-2c879b382687@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

didn't reach my gmail inbox.  I looked for it in the spam folder,
but couldn't find it there either.

Your first reply on Oct 6, which is archived at

     https://lore.kernel.org/linux-doc/4110a58a-8db5-57c4-2f5a-e09ee054baaa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/

ended up in my spam folder.

I have no idea why gmail has trouble with your emails so often ...

Anyway, LKML did accept your mails this time.

HTH,
         Akira


Thanks Akira!

I wrote the gmail support a while ago, but no response.

Currently no idea who to talk to... Oh well.
