[PATCH v3 1/2] mm/swapfile: fix possible data races of inuse_pages

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

 



si->inuse_pages could still be accessed concurrently now. The plain reads
outside si->lock critical section, i.e. swap_show and si_swapinfo, which
results in data races. READ_ONCE and WRITE_ONCE is used to fix such data
races. Note these data races should be ok because they're just used for
showing swap info.
