* docs/memory-barriers.txt: Update I/O section to be clearer about CPU vs threadWill Deacon2019-04-231-27/+40
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The revised I/O ordering section of memory-barriers.txt introduced in 4614bbdee357 ("docs/memory-barriers.txt: Rewrite "KERNEL I/O BARRIER EFFECTS" section") loosely refers to "the CPU", whereas the ordering guarantees generally apply within a thread of execution that can migrate between cores, with the scheduler providing the relevant barrier semantics. Reword the section to refer to "CPU thread" and call out ordering of MMIO writes separately from ordering of writes to memory. Ben also spotted that the string accessors are native-endian, so fix that up too.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The "KERNEL I/O BARRIER EFFECTS" section of memory-barriers.txt is vague, x86-centric, out-of-date, incomplete and demonstrably incorrect in places. This is largely because I/O ordering is a horrible can of worms, but also because the document has stagnated as our understanding has evolved. Attempt to address some of that, by rewriting the section based on recent(-ish) discussions with Arnd, BenH and others. Maybe one day we'll find a way to formalise this stuff, but for now let's at least try to make the English easier to understand.

In fact, this ordering guarantee is provided (at significant cost on some architectures such as arm and power) by writel, so the wmb() is not necessary. writel_relaxed exists for cases where this ordering is not required.

| * locking/barriers: Kill lockless_dereference()Will Deacon2017-10-241-12/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | lockless_dereference() is a nice idea, but it gained little traction in kernel code since its introduction three years ago. This is partly because it's a pain to type, but also because using READ_ONCE() instead has worked correctly on all architectures apart from Alpha, which is a fully supported but somewhat niche architecture these days. Now that READ_ONCE() has been upgraded to contain an implicit smp_read_barrier_depends() and the few callers of lockless_dereference() have been converted, we can remove lockless_dereference() altogether.

Start a new document to hopefully better explain the current state of affairs. The old atomic_ops.txt also covers bitmaps and a few more details so this is not a full replacement and we'll therefore keep that document around until such a time that we've managed to write more text to cover its entire.

* locking/Documentation: Clarify limited control-dependency scopePaul E. McKenney2016-06-171-0/+41
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Nothing in the control-dependencies section of memory-barriers.txt says that control dependencies don't extend beyond the end of the if-statement containing the control dependency. Worse yet, in many situations, they do extend beyond that if-statement. In particular, the compiler cannot destroy the control dependency given proper use of READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE(). However, a weakly ordered system having a conditional-move instruction provides the control-dependency guarantee only to code within the scope of the if-statement itself. This commit therefore adds words and an example demonstrating this limitation of control dependencies. Reported-by: Will Deacon <will.deacon@arm.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It appears people are reading this document as a requirements list for building hardware. This is not the intent of this document. Nor is it particularly suited for this purpose. The primary purpose of this document is our collective attempt to define a set of primitives that (hopefully) allow us to write correct code on the myriad of SMP platforms Linux supports. Its a definite work in progress as our understanding of these platforms, and memory ordering in general, progresses. Nor does being mentioned in this document mean we think its a particularly good idea; the data dependency barrier required by Alpha being a prime example.
