Subject: [PATCH] locking/rtmutex: Use try_cmpxchg_relaxed in mark_rt_mutex_waiters()
Date: Wed, 24 Jan 2024 11:49:53 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240124104953.612063-1-ubizjak@gmail.com> (raw)
Use try_cmpxchg() instead of cmpxchg(*ptr, old, new) == old.
X86 CMPXCHG instruction returns success in ZF flag, so this change saves a
compare after CMPXCHG (and related move instruction in front of CMPXCHG).
Also, try_cmpxchg() implicitly assigns old *ptr value to "old" when CMPXCHG
fails. There is no need to re-read the value in the loop.
Note that the value from *ptr should be read using READ_ONCE to prevent
the compiler from merging, refetching or reordering the read.
No functional change intended.
