From 59850d226e4907a6f37c1d2fe5ba97546a8691a4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pavel Begunkov Date: Sun, 6 Dec 2020 22:22:45 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] io_uring: fix io_cqring_events()'s noflush Checking !list_empty(&ctx->cq_overflow_list) around noflush in io_cqring_events() is racy, because if it fails but a request overflowed just after that, io_cqring_overflow_flush() still will be called. Remove the second check, it shouldn't be a problem for performance, because there is cq_check_overflow bit check just above.
