Subject: [PATCH v2 06/14] sparse: add address_space __incoherent
Date: Wed, 20 Oct 2021 10:02:57 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20211020170305.376118-7-ankur.a.arora@oracle.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20211020170305.376118-1-ankur.a.arora@oracle.com>
Some CPU architectures provide store instructions that are weakly
ordered with respect to other instructions that operate on the memory
hierarchy.
Add sparse address_space __incoherent to denote pointers used to
operate over these regions.
