This defines __smp_xxx barriers for tile, for use by virtualization. Some smp_xxx barriers are removed as they are defined correctly by asm-generic/barriers.h Note: for 32 bit, keep smp_mb__after_atomic around since it's faster than the generic implementation.

sh variant of smp_store_mb() calls xchg() on !SMP which is stronger than implied by both the name and the documentation. define __smp_store_mb instead: code in asm-generic/barrier.h will then define smp_store_mb correctly depending on CONFIG_SMP.

This defines __smp_xxx barriers for mips, for use by virtualization. smp_xxx barriers are removed as they are defined correctly by asm-generic/barriers.h Note: the only exception is smp_mb__before_llsc which is mips-specific. We define both the __smp_mb__before_llsc variant (for use in asm/barriers.h) and smp_mb__before_llsc (for use elsewhere on this architecture). Signed-off-by: Michael S.

This defines __smp_xxx barriers for metag, for use by virtualization. smp_xxx barriers are removed as they are defined correctly by asm-generic/barriers.h Note: as __smp_XX macros should not depend on CONFIG_SMP, they can not use the existing fence() macro since that is defined differently between SMP and !SMP. For this reason, this patch introduces a wrapper metag_fence() that doesn't depend on CONFIG_SMP. fence() is then defined using that, depending on CONFIG_SMP. Signed-off-by: Michael S.

On !SMP, most architectures define their barriers as compiler barriers. On SMP, most need an actual barrier. Make it possible to remove the code duplication for !SMP by defining low-level __smp_xxx barriers which do not depend on the value of SMP, then use them from asm-generic conditionally. Besides reducing code duplication, these low level APIs will also be useful for virtualization, where a barrier is sometimes needed even if !SMP since we might be talking to another kernel on the same SMP system. Both virtio and Xen drivers will benefit. The smp_xxx variants should use __smp_XXX ones or barrier() depending on SMP, identically for all architectures. We keep ifndef guards around them for now - once/if all architectures are converted to use the generic code, we'll be able to remove these.

With commit b92b8b35 ("locking/arch: Rename set_mb() to smp_store_mb()") it was made clear that the context of this call (and thus set_mb) is strictly for CPU ordering, as opposed to IO. As such all archs should use the smp variant of mb(), respecting the semantics and saving a mandatory barrier on UP.
