For anyone else trying to apply this, it depends on v5.11-rc1 (commit 29f006fdefe6, "asm-generic/atomic: Add try_cmpxchg() fallbacks"), which hasn't yet been merged into Paolo's tree. > arch/x86/include/asm/cmpxchg_32.h | 62 +++++++++++++++++++---- > arch/x86/include/asm/cmpxchg_64.h | 6 +++ > arch/x86/kvm/vmx/posted_intr.c | 9 ++-- > include/asm-generic/atomic-instrumented.h | 46 ++++++++++++++++- > scripts/atomic/gen-atomic-instrumented.sh | 2 +- > 5 files changed, 108 insertions(+), 17 deletions(-) > > -- > 2.26.2 >
