From 49954c1567cb0d70d28bb5512d471dc5bd4e2c3f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dan Williams Date: Thu, 19 Nov 2009 17:11:03 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] ioat3: fix pq completion versus channel deallocation race The completion of a pq operation is notified with a null descriptor appended to the end of the chain. This descriptor needs to be visible to dma clients otherwise the client is precluded from ensuring all operations are quiesced before freeing channel resources, i.e. due to descriptor polling it may get the completion notification ahead of the interrupt delivered by the null descriptor.
