It typically means removing LOCK prefix (on i386 and x86_64) and any SMP sychronization barrier. If the architecture does not have a different behavior between SMP and UP, including asm-generic/local.h -in your archtecture's local.h is sufficient. +in your architecture's local.h is sufficient. The local_t type is defined as an opaque signed long by embedding an atomic_long_t inside a structure. This is made so a cast from this type to a |
