From mboxrd@z Thu Jan 1 00:00:00 1970 From: Andrzej Hajda Date: Thu, 22 Dec 2022 11:46:34 +0000 Subject: [PATCH 18/19] linux/include: add non-atomic version of xchg Message-Id: <20221222114635.1251934-19-andrzej.hajda@intel.com> List-Id: References: <20221222114635.1251934-1-andrzej.hajda@intel.com> In-Reply-To: <20221222114635.1251934-1-andrzej.hajda@intel.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: linux-alpha@vger.kernel.org, linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org, linux-snps-arc@lists.infradead.org, linux-arm-kernel@lists.infradead.org, linux-hexagon@vger.kernel.org, linux-ia64@vger.kernel.org, loongarch@lists.linux.dev, linux-m68k@lists.linux-m68k.org, linux-mips@vger.kernel.org, openrisc@lists.librecores.org, linux-parisc@vger.kernel.org, linuxppc-dev@lists.ozlabs.org, linux-riscv@lists.infradead.org, linux-s390@vger.kernel.org, linux-sh@vger.kernel.org, sparclinux@vger.kernel.org, linux-xtensa@linux-xtensa.org, intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org, dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org Cc: Mark Rutland , Arnd Bergmann , Peter Zijlstra , Boqun Feng , Andrzej Hajda , Rodrigo Vivi , Andrew Morton , Andy Shevchenko The pattern of setting variable with new value and returning old one is very common in kernel. Usually atomicity of the operation is not required, so xchg seems to be suboptimal and confusing in such cases.
