[PATCH locking 0/4] locktorture and memory-barriers.txt updates

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

 



Hello!

This series contains a few memory-barriers.txt updates and a locktorture
cleanup:

1.	Add a disclaimer to memory-barrier.txt, courtesy of
	Peter Zijlstra.

2.	Explicitly state the purpose of memory-barrier.txt, courtesy
	of David Howells.

3.	Explicitly state that ACQUIRE applies to loads and that
	RELEASE applies to stores, courtesy of Will Deacon.

4.	Simplify torture_runnable computation in locktorture, replacing
	a multiline #ifdef with an IS_ENABLED() that fits into an
	existing line.

							Thanx, Paul
