atomic64_fetch_xor_relaxed(9)

💅 atomic64_fetch_xor_relaxed(9) — a Kernel API Manual moment 💅

okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual page for atomic64_fetch_xor_relaxed(9). it’s giving “atomic bitwise XOR with relaxed ordering” and it is literally right here. no cap.

🎀 NAME 🎀

atomic64_fetch_xor_relaxed — atomic bitwise XOR with relaxed ordering.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

s64 atomic64_fetch_xor_relaxed (s64 i , atomic64_t *v );

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

• i — an s64 value.
• v — pointer to atomic64_t.

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

okay so what it does: atomically updates v to (v ^ i) with relaxed ordering. the way that (v ^ i) glow-up happens atomically? iconic. and the ordering is relaxed — that’s in the name, bestie.

🚨 unsafe to use in noinstr code — use raw_atomic64_fetch_xor_relaxed there instead. fr fr, do not skip this one.

🌈 RETURN 🌈

the original value of v. that’s the return. periodt.
