Subject[PATCH] tools: restore READ_ONCE() C++ compatibility
Date
Our userspace <linux/compiler.h> defines READ_ONCE() in a way that clang
doesn't like, as we have an anonymous union in which neither field is
initialized.

WRITE_ONCE() is fine since it initializes the __val field. For
READ_ONCE() we can keep clang and GCC happy with a dummy initialization
of the __c field, so let's do that.

At the same time, let's split READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE() over several
lines for legibility, as we do in the in-kernel <linux/compiler.h>.

Hi,

This is fallout from my automated ACCESS_ONCE() removal, and I'm not that
familiar with using clang for perf.

In local testing, this fixes READ_ONCE() when compiling with clang, but I
subsequently hit some other issues which I believe are down to LLVM API
changes.

Zhijian, Sandipan, does this patch work for you?

Thanks,
Mark.
