[v3,11/41] mips: reuse asm-generic/barrier.h
...u don't listen me. I said multiple times - MIPS
implementation of SYNC_RMB/SYNC_WMB/SYNC_MB/SYNC_ACQUIRE/SYNC_RELEASE
instructions matches the description of
smp_rmb/smp_wmb/smp_mb/sync_acquire/sync_release from
Documentation/memory-barriers.txt file.
What else do you want from me - RTL or microArch design for that?
- Leonid.

I suspect that it is more likely that we are talking past each other.
This stuff is subtle and although we have better ways of talking about
it than (say) ten years ago, it is subtle. Two ways of talking about
it are herd and ppcmem.
The overview of ppcmem (AKA armmem and cppmem...
