Subject: [PATCH v2 4/6] net: mdiobus: Disable preemption upon u64_stats update
Date: Wed,  3 Jun 2020 16:49:47 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200603144949.1122421-5-a.darwish@linutronix.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200603144949.1122421-1-a.darwish@linutronix.de>

The u64_stats mechanism uses sequence counters to protect against 64-bit
values tearing on 32-bit architectures. Updating u64_stats is thus a
sequence counter write side critical section where preemption must be
disabled.

For mdiobus_stats_acct(), disable preemption upon the u64_stats update.
It is called from process context through mdiobus_read() and
mdiobus_write().
