After commit: atomics: add acquire/release/relaxed variants of some atomic operations Architectures may only provide {cmp,}xchg_relaxed definitions in asm/cmpxchg.h. Other variants, such as {cmp,}xchg, may be built in linux/atomic.h, which means simply including asm/cmpxchg.h may not get the definitions of all the{cmp,}xchg variants. Therefore, we should privatize the inclusions of asm/cmpxchg.h to keep it only included in arch/* and replace the inclusions outside with linux/atomic.h Acked-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Boqun Feng <boqun.feng@xxxxxxxxx> --- Documentation/atomic_ops.txt | 4 ++++ drivers/net/ethernet/sfc/mcdi.c | 2 +- drivers/phy/phy-rcar-gen2.c | 3 +-- drivers/staging/speakup/selection.c | 2 +- 4 files changed, 7 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/Documentation/atomic_ops.txt b/Documentation/atomic_ops.txt index b19fc34..c9d1cac 100644 --- a/Documentation/atomic_ops.txt +++ b/Documentation/atomic_ops.txt @@ -542,6 +542,10 @@ The routines xchg() and cmpxchg() must provide the same exact memory-barrier semantics as the atomic and bit operations returning values. +Note: If someone wants to use xchg(), cmpxchg() and their variants, +linux/atomic.h should be included rather than asm/cmpxchg.h, unless +the code is in arch/* and can take care of itself. + Spinlocks and rwlocks have memory barrier expectations as well.
