Subject: [PATCH] trace: further security fixes: add compiler memory barriers
Date: Mon, 05 Jul 2010 09:01:48 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4C31AD8C02000078000097D0@vpn.id2.novell.com> (raw)

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 3342 bytes --]

This is to ensure fields shared writably with Dom0 get read only once
for any consistency checking followed by actual calculations.

I realized there was another multiple-read issue, a fix for which is
also included (which at once simplifies __insert_record()).
