Tsirkin" To: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Cc: virtualization@lists.linux-foundation.org, Jason Wang , qemu-devel@nongnu.org Subject: [PATCH] virtio_ring: use smp_store_mb Message-ID: <1450347932-16325-1-git-send-email-mst@redhat.com> MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: inline X-Mutt-Fcc: =sent Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Content-Length: 2909 Lines: 82 We need a full barrier after writing out event index, using smp_store_mb there seems better than open-coding. As usual, we need a wrapper to account for strong barriers/non smp. It's tempting to use this in vhost as well, for that, we'll need a variant of smp_store_mb that works on __user pointers. Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin --- Seems to give a speedup on my box but I'm less sure about this one. E.g. as xchng faster than mfence on all/most intel CPUs?
