[PATCH v4 00/24] seqlock: Extend seqcount API with associated locks

[Ahmed S. Darwish]

Hi,

This is v4 of the seqlock patch series:

   [PATCH v1 00/25]
   https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200519214547.352050-1-a.darwish@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

   [PATCH v2 00/06] (bugfixes-only, merged)
   https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200603144949.1122421-1-a.darwish@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

   [PATCH v2 00/18]
   https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200608005729.1874024-1-a.darwish@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

   [PATCH v3 00/20]
   https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200630054452.3675847-1-a.darwish@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

It is based over:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/peterz/queue.git :: locking/core

Changelog
=========

 - Unconditionally use C11 _Generic() expressions for seqcount_locktype_t
   switching. Thanks to Peter, pushing for 6ec4476ac825 ("Raise gcc
   version requirement to 4.9").

 - Compress the new seqcount_locktype_t code code by using generative
   macros, as suggested by Peter here:

   https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200708122938.GQ4800@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

   Keep *all* functions that are to be invoked by call-sites out of such
   generative macros though. This simplifies the generative macros code,
   and (more importantly) make the newly exported seqlock.h API explicit.

 - Make all documentation "RST-lite", for better readability from text
   editors.

 - Add additional clean-ups at the start of the series for better
   overall readability of seqlock.h code, and for future extensibility.

Thanks,

8<--------------
