Sure, if the performance gains of having it out-weight the added complexity of having it :-) Nice non answer methinks, no? Muwhaha. To me having one more or less 'conditional' full mb primitive really doesn't matter anymore. I'm presuming you're doing this for performance gains on anything other than x86 though, as x86 has a non-atomic unlock and thus always requires the full barrier thing here (yes yes I know ia32 still exists but people should really really really kill that thing already). > I'm getting confused by who is arguing what :-) Hehe ;-) -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
