Re: [PATCH 4/8] perf mutex: Add DO_ONCE() for one-time initialization

[sashiko-bot@kernel.org]

> From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@redhat.com>

> For lazy init that more than one thread can race into, without

> clang's -Wthread-safety keeps an eye on the mutexes involved.
> 
> Mirrors the kernel's include/linux/once.h DO_ONCE(), dropping its
> static key fast path, unnecessary at these cold init paths: a per call
> site static bool plus a statically initialized mutex, double checked.
> As there, code reachable from more than one call site must go through
> a common helper.
> 
> The lockless fast path reads ___done with an acquire, paired with a
> release store after fn(), so that fn()'s side effects are visible to
> threads taking the fast path, which the dropped static key used to
> guarantee.
> 
> The __atomic builtins are used rather than smp_load_acquire()/
> smp_store_release() because ThreadSanitizer understands them,
> avoiding reports on ___done and on what fn() initialized.
