The pointer can later be safely * dereferenced within the critical section. * * This ensures that the pointer copy is invariant thorough the whole critical * section. * * Inserts memory barriers on architectures that require them (currently only * Alpha) and documents which pointers are protected by RCU. * * With C standards prior to C11/C++11, the compiler memory barrier in * CMM_LOAD_SHARED() ensures that value-speculative optimizations (e.g. * VSS: Value Speculation Scheduling) does not perform the data read * before the pointer read by speculating the value of the pointer. * Correct ordering is ensured because the pointer is read as a volatile * access. This acts as a global side-effect operation, which forbids * reordering of dependent memory operations. * * With C standards C11/C++11, concerns about dependency-breaking * optimizations are taken care of by the "memory_order_consume" atomic * load. * * Use the gcc __atomic_load() rather than C11/C++11 atomic load * explicit because the pointer used as input argument is a pointer, * not an _Atomic type as required by C11/C++11. * * By defining URCU_DEREFERENCE_USE_VOLATILE, the user requires use of * volatile access to implement rcu_dereference rather than * memory_order_consume load from the C11/C++11 standards. * * This may improve performance on weakly-ordered architectures where * the compiler implements memory_order_consume as a * memory_order_acquire, which is stricter than required by the * standard. * * Note that using volatile accesses for rcu_dereference may cause * LTO to generate incorrectly ordered code starting from C11/C++11. * * Should match rcu_assign_pointer() or rcu_xchg_pointer(). * * This macro is less than 10 lines long.
