Subject: [PATCH 5/5] locking/qrwlock: make use of acquire/release/relaxed atomics
Date: Mon, 13 Jul 2015 13:31:27 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1436790687-11984-6-git-send-email-will.deacon@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1436790687-11984-1-git-send-email-will.deacon@arm.com>

The qrwlock implementation is slightly heavy in its use of memory
barriers, mainly through the use of cmpxchg and _return atomics, which
imply full barrier semantics.

This patch modifies the qrwlock code to use the more relaxed atomic
routines so that we can reduce the unnecessary barrier overhead on
weakly-ordered architectures.
