The current implementation is the same with 8e86f0b409a4
("arm64: atomics: fix use of acquire + release for full barrier
semantics"). RISC-V could combine acquire and release into the SC
instructions and it could reduce a fence instruction to gain better
performance. Here is related descriptio from RISC-V ISA 10.2
Load-Reserved/Store-Conditional Instructions:
- .aq: The LR/SC sequence can be given acquire semantics by
setting the aq bit on the LR instruction.
- .rl: The LR/SC sequence can be given release semantics by
setting the rl bit on the SC instruction.
- .aqrl: Setting the aq bit on the LR instruction, and setting
both the aq and the rl bit on the SC instruction makes
the LR/SC sequence sequentially consistent, meaning that
it cannot be reordered with earlier or later memory
operations from the same hart.
Software should not set the rl bit on an LR instruction unless
the aq bit is also set, nor should software set the aq bit on an
SC instruction unless the rl bit is also set. LR.rl and SC.aq
instructions are not guaranteed to provide any stronger ordering
than those with both bits clear, but may result in lower
performance.
The only difference is when sc.w/d.aqrl failed, it would cause .aq
effect than before. But it's okay for sematic because overlap
address LR couldn't beyond relating SC.
IIUC that's not accurate, or at least wasn't in 2018. The ISA tends to
drift around a bit, so it's possible things have changed since then.
5ce6c1f3535f ("riscv/atomic: Strengthen implementations with fences")
describes the issue more specifically, that's when we added these
fences. There have certainly been complains that these fences are too
heavyweight for the HW to go fast, but IIUC it's the best option we have
given the current set of memory model primitives we implement in the
ISA (ie, there's more in RVWMO but no way to encode that).
The others all look good, though, and as these are really all
independent cleanups I'm going to go ahead and put those three on
for-next.
There's also a bunch of checkpatch errors. The ones about "*" seem
spurious, but the alignment ones aren't. Here's my fixups:
