+ * sync types are defined by the MIPS64 Instruction Set documentation in Volume
+ * II-A of the MIPS Architecture Reference Manual, which can be found here:
+ *
+ * https://www.mips.com/?do-download=the-mips64-instruction-set-v6-06
+ *
+ * Two types of barrier are provided:
+ *
+ * 1) Completion barriers, which ensure that a memory operation has actually
+ * completed & often involve stalling the CPU pipeline to do so.
+ *
+ * 2) Ordering barriers, which only ensure that affected memory operations
+ * won't be reordered in the CPU pipeline in a manner that violates the
+ * restrictions imposed by the barrier.
+ *
+ * Ordering barriers can be more efficient than completion barriers, since:
+ *
+ * a) Ordering barriers only require memory access instructions which preceed
+ * them in program order (older instructions) to reach a point in the
+ * load/store datapath beyond which reordering is not possible before
+ * allowing memory access instructions which follow them (younger
+ * instructions) to be performed. That is, older instructions don't
+ * actually need to complete - they just need to get far enough that all
+ * other coherent CPUs will observe their completion before they observe
+ * the effects of younger instructions.
+ *
+ * b) Multiple variants of ordering barrier are provided which allow the
+ * effects to be restricted to different combinations of older or younger
+ * loads or stores. By way of example, if we only care that stores older
+ * than a barrier are observed prior to stores that are younger than a
+ * barrier & don't care about the ordering of loads then the 'wmb'
+ * ordering barrier can be used. Limiting the barrier's effects to stores
+ * allows loads to continue unaffected & potentially allows the CPU to
+ * make progress faster than if younger loads had to wait for older stores
+ * to complete.

+ * Some Loongson 3 CPUs have a bug wherein execution of a memory access (load,

+ * containing such sequences, this bug bites harder than we might otherwise
+ * expect due to reordering & speculation:
+ *
+ * 1) A memory access appearing prior to the LL in program order may actually
+ * be executed after the LL - this is the reordering case.
+ *
+ * In order to avoid this we need to place a memory barrier (ie. a SYNC
+ * instruction) prior to every LL instruction, in between it and any earlier
+ * memory access instructions.
+ *
+ * This reordering case is fixed by 3A R2 CPUs, ie. 3A2000 models and later.
+ *
+ * 2) If a conditional branch exists between an LL & SC with a target outside
+ * of the LL-SC loop, for example an exit upon value mismatch in cmpxchg()
+ * or similar, then misprediction of the branch may allow speculative
+ * execution of memory accesses from outside of the LL-SC loop.
+ *
+ * In order to avoid this we need a memory barrier (ie. a SYNC instruction)
+ * at each affected branch target.
+ *
+ * This case affects all current Loongson 3 CPUs.
+ *
+ * The above described cases cause an error in the cache coherence protocol;
+ * such that the Invalidate of a competing LL-SC goes 'missing' and SC
+ * erroneously observes its core still has Exclusive state and lets the SC
+ * proceed.
+ *
+ * Therefore the error only occurs on SMP systems.
