From: Thierry Reding <redacted> This patch implements generic versions of readsb(), readsw(), readsl(), readsq(), writesb(), writesw(), writesl() and writesq(). Variants of these string functions for I/O accesses (ins*() and outs*() as well as ioread*_rep() and iowrite*_rep()) are now implemented in terms of the new functions. While at it, also make sure that any of the functions provided as fallback for architectures that don't override them can't be overridden subsequently. This is compile- and runtime-tested on 32-bit and 64-bit ARM and compile tested on Microblaze, s390, SPARC and Xtensa. For ARC, Blackfin, Metag, OpenRISC, Score and Unicore32 which also use asm-generic/io.h I couldn't find or build a cross-compiler that would run on my system. But by code inspection they shouldn't break with this patch.
Looks good. When this is in mainline I will try to convert sparc64 to use asm-generic/io.h too. Last I tried this did not fly because there were some #define missing and then I lost track of it. Sam
