* asm-generic: don't warn that atomic_t is only 24 bitPeter Fritzsche2010-05-25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 32-bit Sparc used to only allow usage of 24-bit of it's atomic_t type. This was corrected with linux 2.6.3 when Keith M Wesolowski changed the implementation to use the parisc approach of having an array of spinlocks to protect the atomic_t. These warnings were also removed from the sparc implementation when the new implementation was merged in BKrev:402e4949VThdc6D3iaosSFUgabMfvw, but the warning still remained in some other places without any 24-bit-only atomic_t implementation inside the kernel. We should remove these warnings to allow users to rely on the full 32-bit range of atomic_t.

* atomic_t: Cast to volatile when accessing atomic variablesAnton Blanchard2010-05-17

* asm-generic: add generic atomic.h and io.hArnd Bergmann2009-06-11
| | | | | | | | | atomic.h and io.h are based on the mn10300 architecture, which is already pretty generic and can be used by other architectures that do not have hardware support for atomic operations or out-of-order I/O access. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de>
* asm-generic: rename atomic.h to atomic-long.hArnd Bergmann2009-06-11
| | | | | | | | | | | The existing asm-generic/atomic.h only defines the atomic_long type. This renames it to atomic-long.h so we have a place to add a truly generic atomic.h that can be used on all non-SMP systems.

* atomic.h: atomic_add_unless as inline. Remove system.h atomic.h circular ↵Mathieu Desnoyers2007-05-08
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | dependency atomic_add_unless as inline. Remove system.h atomic.h circular dependency. I agree (with Andi Kleen) this typeof is not needed and more error prone. All the original atomic.h code that uses cmpxchg (which includes the atomic_add_unless) uses defines instead of inline functions, probably to circumvent a circular dependency between system.h and atomic.h on powerpc (which my patch addresses). Therefore, it makes sense to use inline functions that will provide type checking. atomic_add_unless as inline. Remove system.h atomic.h circular dependency. Digging into the FRV architecture shows me that it is also affected by such a circular dependency. Here is the diff applying this against the rest of my atomic.h patches. It applies over the atomic.h standardization patches.

* [PATCH] Use atomic64_set for 64-bit case of atomic_long_setKyle McMartin2006-01-15
| | | | | | | | | | For some reason, the BITS_PER_LONG == 64 case of atomic_long_set was using atomic_set instead of atomic64_set. This does not jive with architectures which use an inline instead of a #define to implement their atomic_set() primitives.

* [PATCH] atomic_long_t & include/asm-generic/atomic.h V2Christoph Lameter2006-01-06
Several counters already have the need to use 64 atomic variables on 64 bit platforms (see mm_counter_t in sched.h). We have to do ugly ifdefs to fall back to 32 bit atomic on 32 bit platforms. The VM statistics patch that I am working on will also make more extensive use of atomic64. This patch introduces a new type atomic_long_t by providing definitions in asm-generic/atomic.h that works similar to the c "long" type. Its 32 bits on 32 bit platforms and 64 bits on 64 bit platforms. Also cleans up the determination of the mm_counter_t in sched.h.
