Subject: [PATCH 1/3] PM / Wakeup: Add missing memory barriers
Date: Tue, 25 Jan 2011 01:14:17 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <201101250114.17758.rjw@sisk.pl> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <201101250112.40350.rjw@sisk.pl>
From: Rafael J. Wysocki <rjw@sisk.pl>
The memory barrier in wakeup_source_deactivate() is supposed to
prevent the callers of pm_wakeup_pending() and pm_get_wakeup_count()
from seeing the new value of events_in_progress (0, in particular)
and the old value of event_count at the same time. However, if
wakeup_source_deactivate() is executed by CPU0 and, for instance,
pm_wakeup_pending() is executed by CPU1, where both processors can
reorder operations, the memory barrier in wakeup_source_deactivate()
doesn't affect CPU1 which can reorder reads. In that case CPU1 may
very well decide to fetch event_count before it's modified and
events_in_progress after it's been updated, so pm_wakeup_pending()
may fail to detect a wakeup event. This issue can be addressed by
adding a read memory barrier in pm_wakeup_pending() that will enforce
events_in_progress to be read before event_count.
For similar reason, a read memory barrier should be added to
pm_get_wakeup_count().
