Thus far only smp_*() barriers had been defined by asm-generic/barrier.h based on __smp_*() barriers, because the !SMP case is usually generic. With the introduction of instrumentation, it also makes sense to have asm-generic/barrier.h assist in the definition of instrumented versions of mb(), rmb(), wmb(), dma_rmb(), and dma_wmb(). Because there is no requirement to distinguish the !SMP case, the definition can be simpler: we can avoid also providing fallbacks for the __ prefixed cases, and only check if `defined(__<barrier>)`, to finally define the KCSAN-instrumented versions. This also allows for the compiler to complain if an architecture accidentally defines both the normal and __ prefixed variant. Signed-off-by: Marco Elver <elver@google.com> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
