[PATCH] dm-bufio: use the acquire memory barrier when testing for B_READ

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The function test_bit doesn't provide any memory barrier. It may be
possible that the read requests that follow test_bit(B_READING, &b->state)
are reordered before the test, reading invalid data that existed before
B_READING was cleared.

Fix this bug by changing test_bit to test_bit_acquire.
