Subject: Re: Uses for memory barriers
Date: Tue, 12 Sep 2006 09:57:39 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <31512.1158051459@warthog.cambridge.redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <Pine.LNX.4.44L0.0609082216070.8541-100000@netrider.rowland.org>


I'd state it as:

	mb() _implies_ both rmb() and wmb(), but is more complete than both
	since it _also_ partially orders reads and writes with respect to each
	other.
