From 1f49a2c2aeb22d5abc6d4ea574ff63d37ca55fbe Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mathieu Desnoyers Date: Fri, 15 Aug 2008 12:45:09 -0400 Subject: x86: revert replace LOCK_PREFIX in futex.h Since we now use DS prefixes instead of NOP to remove LOCK prefixes, there are no longer any issues with instruction boundaries moving around. Depends on : x86 alternatives : fix LOCK_PREFIX race with preemptible kernel and CPU hotplug On Thu, 14 Aug 2008, Mathieu Desnoyers wrote: > > Changing the 0x90 (single-byte nop) currently used into a 0x3E DS segment > override prefix should fix this issue.

Ok, so I think this is an _excellent_ patch, but I'd like to also then use LOCK_PREFIX in include/asm-x86/futex.h. See commit 9d55b9923a1b7ea8193b8875c57ec940dc2ff027.
