atomic_long_...dnot_relaxed(9)

💅 atomic_long_...dnot_relaxed(9) — Kernel API Manual, bestie edition ✨

okay so welcome to the atomic_long_...dnot_relaxed(9) page from the Kernel API Manual. It’s giving tiny atomic operation, big main character energy, and we’re gonna get through it together — no cap. 🫶

🌸 NAME 🌸

atomic_long_fetch_andnot_relaxed — atomic bitwise AND NOT with relaxed ordering. That’s the whole name, bestie, and yes it’s a mouthful. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

long atomic_long_fetch_andnot_relaxed (long i , atomic_long_t *v );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• i — a long value. It’s the one getting flipped into the ~i of it all. 💖
• v — pointer to atomic_long_t. This is the atomic long we’re updating. 🦋

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

Okay so the actual move: it atomically updates v to (v & ~i) with relaxed ordering. Atomically means all at once, no half-done weirdness — it’s atomic, duh. ✨ And relaxed ordering is the ordering level, not a vibe check.

⚠️ bestie, this one is unsafe to use in noinstr code. Like, do not. Use raw_atomic_long_fetch_andnot_relaxed there instead — that’s the whole warning, no cap. 💀

🫶 RETURN 🫶

The original value of v. That’s it, that’s the tea. You get the old value back, not the new one. 👑
