Subject: [PATCH 5.10] dma-buf: insert memory barrier before updating num_fences
Date: Fri, 8 Aug 2025 18:05:37 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250808180537.26649-1-wanjay@amazon.com> (raw)

From: Hyejeong Choi <hjeong.choi@samsung.com>

commit 72c7d62583ebce7baeb61acce6057c361f73be4a upstream.

smp_store_mb() inserts memory barrier after storing operation.
It is different with what the comment is originally aiming so Null
pointer dereference can be happened if memory update is reordered.

[Conflict resolved by applying changes from dma_resv_add_fence() in the original fix to dma_resv_add_shared_fence() in current code base]
