From 3af4e414af5ce014d1f88cd816d997048298b310 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Christoffer Dall Date: Wed, 2 Aug 2017 16:28:42 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] KVM: arm/arm64: vgic: Use READ_ONCE fo cmpxchg There is a small chance that the compiler could generate separate loads for the dist->propbaser which could be modified from another CPU. As we want to make sure we atomically update the entire value, and don't race with other updates, guarantee that the cmpxchg operation compares against the original value.
