Subject: [patch v2 05/11] x86: Select ARCH_STORE_IMPLIES_RELEASE
Date: Fri, 20 Mar 2026 00:24:31 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260319231239.477866560@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20260319225224.853416463@kernel.org
The generic unsafe_atomic_store_release_user() implementation does:
if (!IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_ARCH_STORE_IMPLIES_RELEASE))
smp_mb();
unsafe_put_user();
As stores on x86 imply release, select ARCH_STORE_IMPLIES_RELEASE to avoid
the unnecessary smp_mb().
