[PATCH 06/10] MIPS: pm-cps: Use MIPS standard lightweight ordering barrier

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

 



Since R2 of the MIPS architecture, SYNC(0x10) has been an optional but
architecturally defined ordering barrier. If a CPU does not implement it,
the arch specifies that it must fall back to SYNC(0).

Define the barrier type and always use it in the pm-cps code rather than
falling back to the heavyweight sync(0) such that we can benefit from
the lighter weight sync.
