[PATCH V2 3/3] riscv: xchg: Prefetch the destination word for sc.w

From: guoren
Date: Sun Dec 31 2023 - 03:31:01 EST


From: Guo Ren <guoren@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

The cost of changing a cacheline from shared to exclusive state can be
significant, especially when this is triggered by an exclusive store,
since it may result in having to retry the transaction.

This patch makes use of prefetch.w to prefetch cachelines for write
prior to lr/sc loops when using the xchg_small atomic routine.

This patch is inspired by commit: 0ea366f5e1b6 ("arm64: atomics:
prefetch the destination word for write prior to stxr").
