Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/2] membarrier: speed up single-threaded private cmd
Date: Sun, 27 Aug 2017 12:54:03 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170827195404.22171-1-mathieu.desnoyers@efficios.com> (raw)

Single-threaded processes don't need to issue barriers, since the
thread's current CPU is the only one that matters.
