raw_atomic64_fetch_or(9)

💅 raw_atomic64_fetch_or(9) — Kernel API Manual 💅

✨ NAME ✨

okay bestie, meet raw_atomic64_fetch_or: atomic bitwise OR with full ordering. that's the whole vibe. 💖

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

s64 raw_atomic64_fetch_or (s64 i , atomic64_t *v );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• i — an s64 value. yes, exactly that. 🫶
• v — pointer to atomic64_t. a whole pointer, periodt. ✨

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

Atomically updates v to (v | i) with full ordering. the way that | is doing bitwise OR and the whole thing is atomic? iconic. 🔥

Safe to use in noinstr code; prefer atomic64_fetch_or elsewhere. that's literally what the page says, so keep that in mind, bestie. 💅

no cap: noinstr is safe here, but elsewhere the manual is like “prefer atomic64_fetch_or,” okay? 🌈

🔥 RETURN 🔥

The original value of v. not the new value — the O.G. value. she gives you the before pic, not the after. 😭📸
