The eieio instruction is a barrier 12 * providing an ordering (separately) for (a) cacheable stores and (b) 13 * loads and stores to non-cacheable memory (e.g. I/O devices). 14 * 15 * mb() prevents loads and stores being reordered across this point. 16 * rmb() prevents loads being reordered across this point. 17 * wmb() prevents stores being reordered across this point. 18 * read_barrier_depends() prevents data-dependent loads being reordered 19 * across this point (nop on PPC). 20 * 21 * *mb() variants without smp_ prefix must order all types of memory 22 * operations with one another. sync is the only instruction sufficient 23 * to do this. 24 * 25 * For the smp_ barriers, ordering is for cacheable memory operations 26 * only. We have to use the sync instruction for smp_mb(), since lwsync 27 * doesn't order loads with respect to previous stores. Lwsync can be 28 * used for smp_rmb() and smp_wmb(). 29 * 30 * However, on CPUs that don't support lwsync, lwsync actually maps to a 31 * heavy-weight sync, so smp_wmb() can be a lighter-weight eieio. 32 */ 33 #define mb() __asm__ __volatile__ ("sync" : : : "memory") 34 #define rmb() __asm__ __volatile__ ("sync" : : : "memory") 35 #define wmb() __asm__ __volatile__ ("sync" : : : "memory") 36 #define read_barrier_depends() do { } while(0) 37 38 #define set_mb(var, value) do { var = value; mb(); } while (0) 39 40 #ifdef CONFIG_SMP 41 42 #ifdef __SUBARCH_HAS_LWSYNC 43 # define SMPWMB LWSYNC 44 #else 45 # define SMPWMB eieio 46 #endif 47 48 #define smp_mb() mb() 49 #define smp_rmb() __asm__ __volatile__ (stringify_in_c(LWSYNC) : : :"memory") 50 #define smp_wmb() __asm__ __volatile__ (stringify_in_c(SMPWMB) : : :"memory") 51 #define smp_read_barrier_depends() read_barrier_depends() 52 #else 53 #define smp_mb() barrier() 54 #define smp_rmb() barrier() 55 #define smp_wmb() barrier() 56 #define smp_read_barrier_depends() do { } while(0) 57 #endif /* CONFIG_SMP */ 58 59 /* 60 * This is a barrier which prevents following instructions from being 61 * started until the value of the argument x is known.
