Subject: [PATCH 3/3] mm/swapfile: fix possible data races of inuse_pages
Date: Fri, 27 May 2022 17:26:26 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220527092626.31883-4-linmiaohe@huawei.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220527092626.31883-1-linmiaohe@huawei.com>

si->inuse_pages could still be accessed concurrently now. The plain reads
outside si->lock critical section, i.e. swap_show and si_swapinfo, which
results in data races. But these should be ok because they're just used
for showing swap info.
