|
* enum membarrier_cmd - membarrier system call command
|
||
|
|
* @MEMBARRIER_CMD_QUERY: Query the set of supported commands. It returns
|
||
|
|
* a bitmask of valid commands.
|
||
|
|
* @MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL: Execute a memory barrier on all running threads.
|
||
|
|
* Upon return from system call, the caller thread
|
||
|
|
* is ensured that all running threads have passed
|
||
|
|
* through a state where all memory accesses to
|
||
|
|
* user-space addresses match program order between
|
||
|
|
* entry to and return from the system call
|
||
|
|
* (non-running threads are de facto in such a
|
||
|
|
* state). This covers threads from all processes
|
||
|
|
* running on the system. This command returns 0.
|
||
|
|
* @MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED:
|
||
|
|
* Execute a memory barrier on all running threads
|
||
|
|
* of all processes which previously registered
|
||
|
|
* with MEMBARRIER_CMD_REGISTER_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED.
|
||
|
|
* Upon return from system call, the caller thread
|
||
|
|
* is ensured that all running threads have passed
|
||
|
|
* through a state where all memory accesses to
|
||
|
|
* user-space addresses match program order between
|
||
|
|
* entry to and return from the system call
|
||
|
|
* (non-running threads are de facto in such a
|
||
|
|
* state). This only covers threads from processes
|
||
|
|
* which registered with
|
||
|
|
* MEMBARRIER_CMD_REGISTER_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED.
|
||
|
|
* This command returns 0. Given that
|
||
|
|
* registration is about the intent to receive
|
||
|
|
* the barriers, it is valid to invoke
|
||
|
|
* MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED from a
|
||
|
|
* non-registered process.
|
||
|
|
* @MEMBARRIER_CMD_REGISTER_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED:
|
||
|
|
* Register the process intent to receive
|
||
|
|
* MEMBARRIER_CMD_GLOBAL_EXPEDITED memory
|
||
|
|
* barriers. Always returns 0.
|
||
|
|
* @MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED:
|
||
|
|
* Execute a memory barrier on each running
|
||
|
|
* thread belonging to the same process as the current
|
||
|
|
* thread. Upon return from system call, the
|
||
|
|
* caller thread is ensured that all its running
|
||
|
|
* threads siblings have passed through a state
|
||
|
|
* where all memory accesses to user-space
|
||
|
|
* addresses match program order between entry
|
||
|
|
* to and return from the system call
|
||
|
|
* (non-running threads are de facto in such a
|
||
|
|
* state). This only covers threads from the
|
||
|
|
* same process as the caller thread. This
|
||
|
|
* command returns 0 on success. The
|
||
|
|
* "expedited" commands complete faster than
|
||
|
|
* the non-expedited ones, they never block,
|
||
|
|
* but have the downside of causing extra
|
||
|
|
* overhead. A process needs to register its
|
||
|
|
* intent to use the private expedited command
|
||
|
|
* prior to using it, otherwise this command
|
||
|
|
* returns -EPERM.
|
||
|
|
* @MEMBARRIER_CMD_REGISTER_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED:
|
||
|
|
* Register the process intent to use
|
||
|
|
* MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED. Always
|
||
|
|
* returns 0.
|
||
|
|
* @MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED_SYNC_CORE:
|
||
|
|
* In addition to provide memory ordering
|
||
|
|
* guarantees described in
|
||
|
|
* MEMBARRIER_CMD_PRIVATE_EXPEDITED, ensure
|
||
|
|
* the caller thread, upon return from system
|
||
|
|
* call, that all its running threads siblings
|
||
|
|
* have executed a core serializing
|
||
|
|
* instruction. (architectures are required to
|
||
|
|
* guarantee that non-running threads issue
|
||
|
|
* core serializing instructions before they
|
||
|
|
* resume user-space execution). This only
|
||
|
|
* covers threads from the same process as the
|
||
|
|
* caller thread. This command returns 0 on
|
||
|
|
* success. The "expedited" commands complete
|
||
|
|
* faster than the non-expedited ones, they
|
||
|
|
* never block, but have the downside of
|

|
|
* causing extra overhead. If this command is
|
||
|
|
* not implemented by an architecture, -EINVAL
|
||
|
|
* is returned. A process needs to register its
|
||
|
|
* intent to use the private expedited sync
|
||
|
|

|
|
