27/**
28 * _rcu_dereference - reads (copy) a RCU-protected pointer to a local variable
29 * into a RCU read-side critical section. The pointer can later be safely
30 * dereferenced within the critical section.
31 *
32 * This ensures that the pointer copy is invariant thorough the whole critical
33 * section.
34 *
35 * Inserts memory barriers on architectures that require them (currently only
36 * Alpha) and documents which pointers are protected by RCU.
37 *
380f4b19
MD
38 * With C standards prior to C11/C++11, the compiler memory barrier in
39 * CMM_LOAD_SHARED() ensures that value-speculative optimizations (e.g.
40 * VSS: Value Speculation Scheduling) does not perform the data read
41 * before the pointer read by speculating the value of the pointer.
42 * Correct ordering is ensured because the pointer is read as a volatile
43 * access. This acts as a global side-effect operation, which forbids
44 * reordering of dependent memory operations.
45 *
46 * With C standards C11/C++11, concerns about dependency-breaking
47 * optimizations are taken care of by the "memory_order_consume" atomic
48 * load.
49 *
3abcdbd1
MD
50 * Use the gcc __atomic_load() rather than C11/C++11 atomic load
51 * explicit because the pointer used as input argument is a pointer,
52 * not an _Atomic type as required by C11/C++11.
53 *
380f4b19
MD
54 * By defining URCU_DEREFERENCE_USE_VOLATILE, the user requires use of
55 * volatile access to implement rcu_dereference rather than
56 * memory_order_consume load from the C11/C++11 standards.
57 *
58 * This may improve performance on weakly-ordered architectures where
59 * the compiler implements memory_order_consume as a
60 * memory_order_acquire, which is stricter than required by the
61 * standard.
62 *
63 * Note that using volatile accesses for rcu_dereference may cause
64 * LTO to generate incorrectly ordered code starting from C11/C++11.

66 * Should match rcu_assign_pointer() or rcu_xchg_pointer().
