[patch] linux 2.4.17: The second mb() rework

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

 



Hello,

 Here is the second version of the mb() approach again.  It adds iob() as
the strongest barrier, implying committing all writes to the CPU bus.  I
consider this version final.

 Any objections (barring "sync" workarounds we may consider later)? 

  Maciej
