[PATCH v2 14/20] arm64: percpu: Implement preemptible read/write ops

From: Mark Rutland <mark.rutland@arm.com>
Date: 2026-08-04 17:06:30
Also in: stable
Subsystem: arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), per-cpu memory allocator, the rest · Maintainers: Catalin Marinas, Will Deacon, Dennis Zhou, Tejun Heo, Christoph Lameter, Linus Torvalds

Use the PCPU GPR infrastructure to implement preemptible this_cpu_read()
and this_cpu_write().

This change means that this_cpu_read() will always use a plain LDR, even
in LTO configurations where READ_ONCE() will use LDA[P]R. Using plain
LDR is preferable, given that the rationale for using LDA[P]R in
READ_ONCE() was to retain address dependencies against values written by
other CPUs, which isn't expected usage for this_cpu_read(). Using plain
LDR will enforce fewer ordering constraints.

Test case:

| void outline_this_cpu_write_u64(u64 __percpu *p, u64 v)
| {
| 	this_cpu_write(*p, v);
| }
