sbitmap_deferred_clear() does CAS loop to propagate cleared bits, replace it with equivalent atomic bitwise and. That's slightly faster and makes wait-free instead of lock-free as before. The atomic can be relaxed (i.e. barrier-less) because following sbitmap_get*() deal with synchronisation, see comments in sbitmap_queue_clear(). It's ok to cast to atomic_long_t, that's what bitops/lock.h does. Signed-off-by: Pavel Begunkov <asml.silence@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
