Date: Mon, 8 Apr 2013 10:49:27 +0100 From: Luis Henriques <luis.henriques@...onical.com> To: linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org, stable@...r.kernel.org, kernel-team@...ts.ubuntu.com Cc: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@...app.com>, Luis Henriques <luis.henriques@...onical.com> Subject: [PATCH 012/102] SUNRPC: Add barriers to ensure read ordering in rpc_wake_up_task_queue_locked 3.5.7.10 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Trond Myklebust <Trond.Myklebust@...app.com> commit 1166fde6a923c30f4351515b6a9a1efc513e7d00 upstream. We need to be careful when testing task->tk_waitqueue in rpc_wake_up_task_queue_locked, because it can be changed while we are holding the queue->lock. By adding appropriate memory barriers, we can ensure that it is safe to test task->tk_waitqueue for equality if the RPC_TASK_QUEUED bit is set.
