From 234927540e6ac82f5f083a11c3e860e346ed09bc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Michael S. Tsirkin" Date: Sun, 27 Dec 2015 18:02:16 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] xen/events: use virt_xxx barriers drivers/xen/events/events_fifo.c uses rmb() to communicate with the other side. For guests compiled with CONFIG_SMP, smp_rmb would be sufficient, so rmb() here is only needed if a non-SMP guest runs on an SMP host. Switch to the virt_rmb barrier which serves this exact purpose. Pull in asm/barrier.h here to make sure the file is self-contained. Suggested-by: David Vrabel Signed-off-by: Michael S.
