[PATCH 5.0 064/101] sbitmap: order READ/WRITE freed instance and setting clear bit

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Thu May 02 2019 - 11:36:06 EST


[ Upstream commit e6d1fa584e0dd9bfebaf345e9feea588cf75ead2 ]

Inside sbitmap_queue_clear(), once the clear bit is set, it will be
visiable to allocation path immediately. Meantime READ/WRITE on old
associated instance(such as request in case of blk-mq) may be
out-of-order with the setting clear bit, so race with re-allocation
may be triggered.

Adds one memory barrier for ordering READ/WRITE of the freed associated
instance with setting clear bit for avoiding race with re-allocation.

The following kernel oops triggerd by block/006 on aarch64 may be fixed:
