What would be the best fix for that; I'm thinking: head_2nd = smp_load_acquire(&tail_2nd->next); Will? > + cmpxchg_relaxed(&tail_2nd->next, head_2nd, NULL); > + arch_mcs_pass_lock(&head_2nd->locked, 1); > + return true; > + } > + > + return false; > +} _______________________________________________ linux-arm-kernel mailing list linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org http://lists.infradead.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-arm-kernel
