Subject: [PATCH] Documentation: atomic_ops.txt is core-api/atomic_ops.rst
Date: Fri, 23 Jun 2017 13:31:39 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170623203139.7258-1-palmer@dabbelt.com> (raw)

I was reading the memory barries documentation in order to make sure the
RISC-V barries were correct, and I found a broken link to the atomic
operations documentation.
