The rcu-fence relation in the Linux Kernel Memory Model is not well named. It doesn't act like any other fence relation, in that it does not relate events before a fence to events after that fence. All it does is relate certain RCU events to one another (those that are ordered by the RCU Guarantee); this induces an actual strong-fence-like relation linking events preceding the first RCU event to those following the second. This patch renames rcu-fence, now called rcu-order. It adds a new definition of rcu-fence, something which should have been present all along because it is used in the rb relation. And it modifies the fence and strong-fence relations by making them incorporate the new rcu-fence. As a result of this change, there is no longer any need to define full-fence in the section for detecting data races. It can simply be replaced by the updated strong-fence relation. This change should have no effect on the operation of the memory model.
