[PATCH 3.16 22/87] sbitmap: fix improper use of smp_mb__before_atomic()

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

 



3.16.75-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Andrea Parri <andrea.parri@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit a0934fd2b1208458e55fc4b48f55889809fce666 upstream.

This barrier only applies to the read-modify-write operations; in
particular, it does not apply to the atomic_set() primitive.

Replace the barrier with an smp_mb().

Fixes: 6c0ca7ae292ad ("sbitmap: fix wakeup hang after sbq resize")
