[PATCH 2/4] vhost: Improve vhost_get_avail_idx() with smp_rmb()

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

 



All the callers of vhost_get_avail_idx() are concerned to the memory
barrier, imposed by smp_rmb() to ensure the order of the available
ring entry read and avail_idx read.

Improve vhost_get_avail_idx() so that smp_rmb() is executed when
the avail_idx is advanced. With it, the callers needn't to worry
about the memory barrier.

No functional change intended.
