[PATCH 2/5] hv: add helpers to handle hv_util device state

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

 



From: Olaf Hering <olaf@xxxxxxxxx>

The callbacks in kvp, vss and fcopy code are called both from the main thread
as well as from interrupt context. If a state change is done by the main
thread it is not immediately seen by the interrupt. As a result the
state machine gets out of sync.

Force propagation of state changes via get/set helpers with a memory barrier.
