The conditional inc/dec ops differ for atomic_t and atomic64_t:

- atomic_inc_unless_positive() is optional for atomic_t, and doesn't exist for atomic64_t.
- atomic_dec_unless_negative() is optional for atomic_t, and doesn't exist for atomic64_t.
- atomic_dec_if_positive is optional for atomic_t, and is mandatory for atomic64_t.

Let's make these consistently optional for both. At the same time, let's
clean up the existing fallbacks to use atomic_try_cmpxchg().

The instrumented atomics are updated accordingly.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Many of the inc/dec ops are mandatory, but for most architectures inc/dec are
simply trivial wrappers around their corresponding add/sub ops.

Let's make all the inc/dec ops optional, so that we can get rid of these
boilerplate wrappers.

The instrumented atomics are updated accordingly.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Some of the atomics return the result of a test applied after the atomic
operation, and almost all architectures implement these as trivial
wrappers around the underlying atomic. Specifically:

 * &lt;atomic&gt;_inc_and_test(v)    is (&lt;atomic&gt;_inc_return(v)    == 0)
 * &lt;atomic&gt;_dec_and_test(v)    is (&lt;atomic&gt;_dec_return(v)    == 0)
 * &lt;atomic&gt;_sub_and_test(i, v) is (&lt;atomic&gt;_sub_return(i, v) == 0)
 * &lt;atomic&gt;_add_negative(i, v) is (&lt;atomic&gt;_add_return(i, v)  &lt; 0)

Rather than have these definitions duplicated in all architectures, with
minor inconsistencies in formatting and documentation, let's make these
operations optional, with default fallbacks as above. Implementations
must now provide a preprocessor symbol.

The instrumented atomics are updated accordingly.

Both x86 and m68k have custom implementations, which are left as-is,
given preprocessor symbols to avoid being overridden.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

<content type='text'>
Architectures with atomic64_fetch_add_unless() provide a preprocessor
symbol if they do so, and all other architectures have trivial C
implementations of atomic64_add_unless() which are near-identical.

Let's unify the trivial definitions of atomic64_fetch_add_unless() in
&lt;linux/atomic.h&gt;, so that we always have both
atomic64_fetch_add_unless() and atomic64_add_unless() with less
boilerplate code.

This means that atomic64_add_unless() is always implemented in core
code, and the instrumented atomics are updated accordingly.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

<content type='text'>
Several architectures these have a near-identical implementation based
on atomic_read() and atomic_cmpxchg() which we can instead define in
&lt;linux/atomic.h&gt;, so let's do so, using something close to the existing
x86 implementation with try_cmpxchg().

Where an architecture provides its own atomic_fetch_add_unless(), it
must define a preprocessor symbol for it. The instrumented atomics are
updated accordingly.

Note that arch/arc's existing atomic_fetch_add_unless() had redundant
barriers, as these are already present in its atomic_cmpxchg()
implementation.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

<content type='text'>
We define a trivial fallback for atomic_inc_not_zero(), but don't do
the same for atomic64_inc_not_zero(), leading most architectures to
define the same boilerplate.

Let's add a fallback in &lt;linux/atomic.h&gt;, and remove the redundant
implementations. Note that atomic64_add_unless() is always defined in
&lt;linux/atomic.h&gt;, and promotes its arguments to the requisite types, so
we need not do this explicitly.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

<title>atomics/treewide: Rename __atomic_add_unless() =&gt; atomic_fetch_add_unless()</title>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel.git/commit/?id=bfc18e389c7a09fbbbed6bf4032396685b14246e'/>
<id>urn:sha1:bfc18e389c7a09fbbbed6bf4032396685b14246e</id>
<content type='text'>
While __atomic_add_unless() was originally intended as a building-block
for atomic_add_unless(), it's now used in a number of places around the
kernel. It's the only common atomic operation named __atomic*(), rather
than atomic_*(), and for consistency it would be better named
atomic_fetch_add_unless().

This lack of consistency is slightly confusing, and gets in the way of
scripting atomics. Given that, let's clean things up and promote it to
an official part of the atomics API, in the form of
atomic_fetch_add_unless().

This patch converts definitions and invocations over to the new name,
including the instrumented version, using the following script:

  ----
  git grep -w __atomic_add_unless | while read line; do
  sed -i '{s/\&lt;__atomic_add_unless\&gt;/atomic_fetch_add_unless/}' "${line%%:*}";
  done
  git grep -w __arch_atomic_add_unless | while read line; do
  sed -i '{s/\&lt;__arch_atomic_add_unless\&gt;/arch_atomic_fetch_add_unless/}' "${line%%:*}";
  done
  ----

Note that we do not have atomic{64,_long}_fetch_add_unless(), which will
be introduced by later patches.

There should be no functional change as a result of this patch.

Implement FETCH-OP atomic primitives, these are very similar to the
existing OP-RETURN primitives we already have, except they return the
value of the atomic variable _before_ modification.

This is especially useful for irreversible operations -- such as
bitops (because it becomes impossible to reconstruct the state prior
to modification).

Pull arm64 updates from Catalin Marinas:

 - "genirq: Introduce generic irq migration for cpu hotunplugged" patch
   merged from tip/irq/for-arm to allow the arm64-specific part to be
   upstreamed via the arm64 tree

 - CPU feature detection reworked to cope with heterogeneous systems
   where CPUs may not have exactly the same features.  The features
   reported by the kernel via internal data structures or ELF_HWCAP are
   delayed until all the CPUs are up (and before user space starts)

 - Support for 16KB pages, with the additional bonus of a 36-bit VA
   space, though the latter only depending on EXPERT

 - Implement native {relaxed, acquire, release} atomics for arm64

 - New ASID allocation algorithm which avoids IPI on roll-over, together
   with TLB invalidation optimisations (using local vs global where
   feasible)

 - KASan support for arm64

 - EFI_STUB clean-up and isolation for the kernel proper (required by
   KASan)

 - copy_{to,from,in}_user optimisations (sharing the memcpy template)

 - perf: moving arm64 to the arm32/64 shared PMU framework

 - L1_CACHE_BYTES increased to 128 to accommodate Cavium hardware

 - Support for the contiguous PTE hint on kernel mapping (16 consecutive
   entries may be able to use a single TLB entry)

 - Generic CONFIG_HZ now used on arm64

 - defconfig updates
