[PATCH 3/5] io_uring_poll: kill the no longer necessary barrier after poll_wait()

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

 



Now that poll_wait() provides a full barrier we can remove smp_rmb() from
io_uring_poll().

In fact I don't think smp_rmb() was correct, it can't serialize LOADs and
STOREs.
