[PATCH 5/7] kvm: Serialize wq active checks in kvm_vcpu_wake_up()

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

 



This is a generic call and can be suceptible to races
in reading the wq task_list while another task is adding
itself to the list. Add a full barrier by using the
swq_has_sleeper() helper.
