atomic64_or(9)

💅 atomic64_or 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual corner of the universe 🎀 this one's short and sweet, so let's go ✨

---

✨ NAME ✨

atomic64_or — atomic bitwise OR with relaxed ordering 🦋

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

void atomic64_or (s64 i , atomic64_t *v );

---

🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

• i — an s64 value 💫 like, the thing you're OR-ing in
• v — pointer to atomic64_t 👑 the target, the main character

---

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

So the vibe is: this atomically updates v to (v | i) — with relaxed ordering ✨ Atomically, meaning nobody's gonna catch it mid-update and see a hot mess. It just slays in one go 🫶

⚠️ Unsafe to use in noinstr code — like, fr fr, do NOT. Use raw_atomic64_or there instead 💀

---

⭐ RETURN ⭐

Nothing. Literally nothing. It's giving void 😌 (no return value, bestie)
