[patch 090/127] mm: vm_page_prot: update with WRITE_ONCE/READ_ONCE

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

 



From: Andrea Arcangeli <aarcange@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm: vm_page_prot: update with WRITE_ONCE/READ_ONCE

vma->vm_page_prot is read lockless from the rmap_walk, it may be updated
concurrently and this prevents the risk of reading intermediate values.
