[PATCH v2] MIPS: io: add a barrier after register read in readX()

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

 



While a barrier is present in writeX() function before the register write,
a similar barrier is missing in the readX() function after the register
read. This could allow memory accesses following readX() to observe
stale data.
