Subject: Re: Internal vs. external barriers (was: Re: Interesting LKMM litmus
test)
I'm not going to get it right today, am I?
+let srcu-rscs = ([Srcu-lock] ; (data ; [~ Srcu-unlock] ; rfe) * ; data
; [Srcu-unlock]) & loc
I see now that I copied the format from your message but without
realizing the original had a `|` where I have a `;`.
I hope this version is finally right and perhaps more natural than the
(data | rf) version, considering rf can't actually appear in most places
and this more closely matches carry-dep;data.
But of course feel free to use
+let srcu-rscs = ([Srcu-lock] ; (data | [~ Srcu-unlock] ; rf)+ ;
[Srcu-unlock]) & loc
instead if you prefer.
have fun, jonas
