From 5c3b74a92aa285a3df722bf6329ba7ccf70346d6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Tue, 6 Jun 2023 07:41:15 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] rfs: annotate lockless accesses to RFS sock flow table Add READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() on accesses to the sock flow table. This also prevents a (smart ?) compiler to remove the condition in: if (table->ents[index] != newval) table->ents[index] = newval; We need the condition to avoid dirtying a shared cache line.
