From: Frederic Weisbecker Date: Sun, 25 Jan 2009 20:50:13 +0000 (-0800) Subject: x86: micro-optimize __raw_read_trylock() X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2d4d57db692ea790e185656516e6ebe8791f1788;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_samsung_universal7580.git x86: micro-optimize __raw_read_trylock() The current version of __raw_read_trylock starts with decrementing the lock and read its new value as a separate operation after that. That makes 3 dereferences (read, write (after sub), read) whereas a single atomic_dec_return does only two pointers dereferences (read, write).
