[PATCH memory-model 0/8] LKMM updates for v5.11

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Thu Nov 05 2020 - 16:59:57 EST


Hello!

This series provides LKMM updates:

1. Document that the LKMM can easily miss control dependencies.

2. Move Documentation description to Documentation/README.

3. Document categories of ordering primitives.

4. Fix a typo in CPU MEMORY BARRIERS section.

5. Add a glossary of LKMM terms.

6. Add types to litmus tests.

7. Use "buf" and "flag" for message-passing tests.

8. Label MP tests' producers and consumers.

Thanx, Paul
