5 * Reader/writer consistent mechanism without starving writers. This type of
6 * lock for data where the reader wants a consistent set of information
7 * and is willing to retry if the information changes. There are two types
9 * 1. Sequence readers which never block a writer but they may have to retry
10 * if a writer is in progress by detecting change in sequence number.
11 * Writers do not wait for a sequence reader.
12 * 2. Locking readers which will wait if a writer or another locking reader
13 * is in progress. A locking reader in progress will also block a writer
14 * from going forward. Unlike the regular rwlock, the read lock here is
15 * exclusive so that only one locking reader can get it.
17 * This is not as cache friendly as brlock. Also, this may not work well
18 * for data that contains pointers, because any writer could
19 * invalidate a pointer that a reader was following.
21 * Expected non-blocking reader usage:
23 * seq = read_seqbegin(&foo);
25 * } while (read_seqretry(&foo, seq));
28 * On non-SMP the spin locks disappear but the writer still needs
29 * to increment the sequence variables because an interrupt routine could
30 * change the state of the data.

287 * raw_write_seqcount_latch - redirect readers to even/odd copy
288 * @s: pointer to seqcount_t
290 * The latch technique is a multiversion concurrency control method that allows
291 * queries during non-atomic modifications. If you can guarantee queries never
292 * interrupt the modification -- e.g. the concurrency is strictly between CPUs
293 * -- you most likely do not need this.
295 * Where the traditional RCU/lockless data structures rely on atomic
296 * modifications to ensure queries observe either the old or the new state the
297 * latch allows the same for non-atomic updates. The trade-off is doubling the
298 * cost of storage; we have to maintain two copies of the entire data
301 * Very simply put: we first modify one copy and then the other. This ensures
302 * there is always one copy in a stable state, ready to give us an answer.
304 * The basic form is a data structure like:
306 * struct latch_struct {
308 * struct data_struct data[2];
311 * Where a modification, which is assumed to be externally serialized, does the
314 * void latch_modify(struct latch_struct *latch, ...)
316 * smp_wmb(); <- Ensure that the last data[1] update is visible
318 * smp_wmb(); <- Ensure that the seqcount update is visible
320 * modify(latch->data[0], ...);
322 * smp_wmb(); <- Ensure that the data[0] update is visible
324 * smp_wmb(); <- Ensure that the seqcount update is visible
326 * modify(latch->data[1], ...);
329 * The query will have a form like:
331 * struct entry *latch_query(struct latch_struct *latch, ...)
333 * struct entry *entry;
337 * seq = raw_read_seqcount_latch(&latch->seq);
340 * entry = data_query(latch->data[idx], ...);
343 * } while (seq != latch->seq);
348 * So during the modification, queries are first redirected to data[1]. Then we
349 * modify data[0]. When that is complete, we redirect queries back to data[0]
350 * and we can modify data[1].
352 * NOTE: The non-requirement for atomic modifications does _NOT_ include
353 * the publishing of new entries in the case where data is a dynamic
356 * An iteration might start in data[0] and get suspended long enough
357 * to miss an entire modification sequence, once it resumes it might
358 * observe the new entry.
360 * NOTE: When data is a dynamic data structure; one should use regular RCU
361 * patterns to manage the lifetimes of the objects within.
