Subject: [PATCH] drm/nouveau: Fix race in nouveau_sched_fini()
Date: Fri, 24 Oct 2025 18:12:22 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251024161221.196155-2-phasta@kernel.org> (raw)

nouveau_sched_fini() uses a memory barrier before wait_event().
wait_event(), however, is a macro which expands to a loop which might
check the passed condition several times. The barrier would only take
effect for the first check.

Replace the barrier with a function which takes the spinlock.

Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # v6.8+
Fixes: 5f03a507b29e ("drm/nouveau: implement 1:1 scheduler - entity relationship")
