It seems you don't listen me. I said multiple times - MIPS implementation of SYNC_RMB/SYNC_WMB/SYNC_MB/SYNC_ACQUIRE/SYNC_RELEASE instructions matches the description of smp_rmb/smp_wmb/smp_mb/sync_acquire/sync_release from Documentation/memory-barriers.txt file. What else do you want from me - RTL or microArch design for that? - Leonid.
