Subject: Re: [for-4.7] x86/emulate: synchronize LOCKed instruction emulation
Date: Fri, 13 May 2016 16:27:00 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160513152700.GE8974@citrix.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1460550374-4344-1-git-send-email-rcojocaru@bitdefender.com>

We're approaching the release date so I would like to wrap this up.

As I understand it, there is indeed an issue in the emulator, but a
proper fix that take into consideration all cases has not been proposed.

Should we make this a blocker for the release? I'm inclined to say no
because it has been like this for a long time and doesn't seem to cause
trouble for our main use case.

Thoughts?

Wei.
