+# Feature name:          membarrier-sync-core
+#         Kconfig:       ARCH_HAS_MEMBARRIER_SYNC_CORE
+#         description:   arch supports core serializing membarrier
+#
+# Architecture requirements
+#
+# * arm/arm64/powerpc
+#
+# Rely on implicit context synchronization as a result of exception return
+# when returning from IPI handler, and when returning to user-space.
+#
+# * x86
+#
+# x86-32 uses IRET as return from interrupt, which takes care of the IPI.
+# However, it uses both IRET and SYSEXIT to go back to user-space. The IRET
+# instruction is core serializing, but not SYSEXIT.
+#
+# x86-64 uses IRET as return from interrupt, which takes care of the IPI.
+# However, it can return to user-space through either SYSRETL (compat code),
+# SYSRETQ, or IRET.
+#
+# Given that neither SYSRET{L,Q}, nor SYSEXIT, are core serializing, we rely
+# instead on write_cr3() performed by switch_mm() to provide core serialization
+# after changing the current mm, and deal with the special case of kthread ->
+# uthread (temporarily keeping current mm into active_mm) by issuing a
+# sync_core_before_usermode() in that specific case.
