Subject: [PATCH v4 10/10] rust: sync: Add memory barriers
Date: Mon,  9 Jun 2025 15:46:15 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250609224615.27061-11-boqun.feng@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250609224615.27061-1-boqun.feng@gmail.com>

Memory barriers are building blocks for concurrent code, hence provide
a minimal set of them.

The compiler barrier, barrier(), is implemented in inline asm instead of
using core::sync::atomic::compiler_fence() because memory models are
different: kernel's atomics are implemented in inline asm therefore the
compiler barrier should be implemented in inline asm as well. Also it's
currently only public to the kernel crate until there's a reasonable
driver usage.
