Subject: [PATCH tip/core/urgent 3/7] rcu: Streamline code produced by __rcu_read_unlock()
Date: Wed, 20 Jul 2011 11:26:19 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1311186383-24819-3-git-send-email-paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110720182512.GA22946@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

Given some common flag combinations, particularly -Os, gcc will inline
rcu_read_unlock_special() despite its being in an unlikely() clause.
Use noinline to prohibit this misoptimization.

In addition, move the second barrier() in __rcu_read_unlock() so that
it is not on the common-case code path.  This will allow the compiler to
generate better code for the common-case path through __rcu_read_unlock().

Suggested-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
