Revision 6b5efc930bbc8c97e4a1fe2ccb9a6f286365a56d authored by Paolo Bonzini on 12 October 2021, 16:35:20 UTC, committed by Paolo Bonzini on 22 October 2021, 14:08:38 UTC
complete_emulator_pio_in can expect that vcpu->arch.pio has been filled in, and therefore does not need the size and count arguments. This makes things nicer when the function is called directly from a complete_userspace_io callback. No functional change intended.

=============
Atomic bitops
=============
While our bitmap_{}() functions are non-atomic, we have a number of operations
operating on single bits in a bitmap that are atomic.
API
---
The single bit operations are:
Non-RMW ops:
test_bit()
RMW atomic operations without return value:
{set,clear,change}_bit()
clear_bit_unlock()
RMW atomic operations with return value:
test_and_{set,clear,change}_bit()
test_and_set_bit_lock()
Barriers:
smp_mb__{before,after}_atomic()
All RMW atomic operations have a '__' prefixed variant which is non-atomic.
SEMANTICS
---------
Non-atomic ops:
In particular __clear_bit_unlock() suffers the same issue as atomic_set(),
which is why the generic version maps to clear_bit_unlock(), see atomic_t.txt.
RMW ops:
The test_and_{}_bit() operations return the original value of the bit.
ORDERING
--------
Like with atomic_t, the rule of thumb is:
- non-RMW operations are unordered;
- RMW operations that have no return value are unordered;
- RMW operations that have a return value are fully ordered.
- RMW operations that are conditional are unordered on FAILURE,
otherwise the above rules apply. In the case of test_and_{}_bit() operations,
if the bit in memory is unchanged by the operation then it is deemed to have
failed.
Except for a successful test_and_set_bit_lock() which has ACQUIRE semantics and
clear_bit_unlock() which has RELEASE semantics.
Since a platform only has a single means of achieving atomic operations
the same barriers as for atomic_t are used, see atomic_t.txt.
