Subject: [RESEND PATCH v3] locking/lockref/x86: Enable ARCH_USE_CMPXCHG_LOCKREF for X86_CMPXCHG64
Date: Mon, 18 Sep 2023 20:40:27 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230918184050.9180-1-ubizjak@gmail.com> (raw)

Commit bc08b449ee14ace4d869adaa1bb35a44ce68d775 enabled lockless
reference count updates using cmpxchg() only for x86_64 and
left x86_32 behind due to inability to detect support for
cmpxchg8b instruction. Nowadays, we can use CONFIG_X86_CMPXCHG64
for this purpose. Also, by using try_cmpxchg64() instead of cmpxchg64()
in CMPXCHG_LOOP macro, the compiler actually produces sane code,
improving lockref_get_not_zero main loop from:

  eb:	8d 48 01             	lea    0x1(%eax),%ecx
  ee:	85 c0                	test   %eax,%eax
  f0:	7e 2f                	jle    121 <lockref_get_not_zero+0x71>

 116:	75 58                	jne    170 <lockref_get_not_zero+0xc0>

v3:
 - Update commit message to refer to lockref_get_not_zero
   instead of removed lockref_get_or_lock
v2:
 - select ARCH_USE_CMPXCHG_LOCKREF for CONFIG_X86_CMPXCHG which
   is unconditionally defined for X86_64
