Subject: [PATCH 5.15.y 2/3] asm-generic: Add memory barrier dma_mb()
Date: Fri, 22 Aug 2025 15:35:01 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250822193502.1445377-2-sashal@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250822193502.1445377-1-sashal@kernel.org>

From: Kefeng Wang <wangkefeng.wang@huawei.com>

[ Upstream commit ed59dfd9509d172e4920994ed9cbebf93b0050cc ]

The memory barrier dma_mb() is introduced by commit a76a37777f2c
("iommu/arm-smmu-v3: Ensure queue is read after updating prod pointer"),
which is used to ensure that prior (both reads and writes) accesses
to memory by a CPU are ordered w.r.t. a subsequent MMIO write.
