#ifndef _LINUX_REFCOUNT_H

-/*
- * Variant of atomic_t specialized for reference counts.
- *
- * The interface matches the atomic_t interface (to aid in porting) but only
- * provides the few functions one should use for reference counting.
- *
- * It differs in that the counter saturates at UINT_MAX and will not move once
- * there. This avoids wrapping the counter and causing 'spurious'
- * use-after-free issues.
- *
- * Memory ordering rules are slightly relaxed wrt regular atomic_t functions
- * and provide only what is strictly required for refcounts.
- *
- * The increments are fully relaxed; these will not provide ordering. The
- * rationale is that whatever is used to obtain the object we're increasing the
- * reference count on will provide the ordering. For locked data structures,
- * its the lock acquire, for RCU/lockless data structures its the dependent
- * load.
- *
- * Do note that inc_not_zero() provides a control dependency which will order
- * future stores against the inc, this ensures we'll never modify the object
- * if we did not in fact acquire a reference.
- *
- * The decrements will provide release order, such that all the prior loads and
- * stores will be issued before, it also provides a control dependency, which
- * will order us against the subsequent free().
- *
- * The control dependency is against the load of the cmpxchg (ll/sc) that
- * succeeded. This means the stores aren't fully ordered, but this is fine
- * because the 1->0 transition indicates no concurrency.
- *
- * Note that the allocator is responsible for ordering things between free()
- * and alloc().
