SubjectRe: [PATCH v2 00/10] Rework READ_ONCE() to improve codegen
Date
Of course, if you're feeling adventurous and willing to at least entertain the
mere speculation of switching the kernel source to C++, we could then use
inline template functions:

template <typename T>
static inline T __READ_ONCE(T &var)
{
T val = *(const volatile T *)&var;
return val;
}

template <typename T>
static inline T READ_ONCE(T &var)
{
T val;
compiletime_assert_rwonce_type(var);
val = __READ_ONCE(var);
smp_read_barrier_depends();
return val;
}

Of course, that would mean using C++...
