tools/memory-model: Expand definition of barrier
Commit 66be4e66a7f4 ("rcu: locking and unlocking need to always be at least barriers") added compiler barriers back into rcu_read_lock() and rcu_read_unlock(). Furthermore, srcu_read_lock() and srcu_read_unlock() have always contained compiler barriers. The Linux Kernel Memory Model ought to know about these barriers. This patch adds them into the memory model. Signed-off-by: Alan Stern <stern@rowland.harvard.edu> Acked-by: Andrea Parri <andrea.parri@amarulasolutions.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.
