Subject: [RFC][PATCH 0/5] Getting rid of smp_mb__before_spinlock
Date: Wed, 07 Jun 2017 18:15:01 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170607161501.819948352@infradead.org> (raw)
There was a thread on this somewhere about a year ago, I finally remembered to
finish this :-)
This series removes two smp_mb__before_spinlock() (ab)users and converts the
scheduler to use smp_mb__after_spinlock(), which provides more guarantees with
the same amount of barriers.
