Subject: [PATCH 5.4 11/15] selftests: KVM: Handle compiler optimizations in ucall
Date: Tue, 9 Aug 2022 20:00:29 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220809175510.695751738@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220809175510.312431319@linuxfoundation.org>
From: Raghavendra Rao Ananta <rananta@google.com>
[ Upstream commit 9e2f6498efbbc880d7caa7935839e682b64fe5a6 ]
The selftests, when built with newer versions of clang, is found
to have over optimized guests' ucall() function, and eliminating
the stores for uc.cmd (perhaps due to no immediate readers). This
resulted in the userspace side always reading a value of '0', and
causing multiple test failures.
As a result, prevent the compiler from optimizing the stores in
ucall() with WRITE_ONCE().
