[PATCHv2 4/4] tools/memory-model: Distinguish between syntactic and semantic tags

From: Jonas Oberhauser
Date: Tue Jun 04 2024 - 12:06:56 EST


Not all tags that are always there syntactically also provide semantic
membership in the corresponding set. For example, an 'acquire tag on a
write does not imply that the write is finally in the Acquire set and
provides acquire ordering.

To distinguish in those cases between the syntactic tags and actual
sets, we capitalize the former, so 'ACQUIRE tags may be present on both
reads and writes, but only reads will appear in the Acquire set.

For tags where the two concepts are the same we do not use specific
capitalization to make this distinction.
