[PATCH 4.14 10/20] ibmvnic: Ensure that SCRQ entry reads are correctly ordered

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Dec 06 2020 - 06:39:28 EST


From: Thomas Falcon <tlfalcon@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit b71ec952234610b4f90ef17a2fdcb124d5320070 ]

Ensure that received Subordinate Command-Response Queue (SCRQ)
entries are properly read in order by the driver. These queues
are used in the ibmvnic device to process RX buffer and TX completion
descriptors. dma_rmb barriers have been added after checking for a
pending descriptor to ensure the correct descriptor entry is checked
and after reading the SCRQ descriptor to ensure the entire
descriptor is read before processing.

Fixes: 032c5e82847a ("Driver for IBM System i/p VNIC protocol")
