[PATCH v4 3/4] ublk: mark ublk_queue as const for ublk_register_io_buf
From: Uday Shankar
Date: Tue Apr 15 2025 - 21:01:02 EST
We now allow multiple tasks to operate on I/Os belonging to the same
queue concurrently. This means that any writes to ublk_queue in the I/O
path are potential sources of data races. Try to prevent these by
marking ublk_queue pointers as const in ublk_register_io_buf.
