From 62977281a6384d3904c02272a638cc3ac3bac54d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Stefan=20B=C3=BChler?= Date: Wed, 24 Apr 2019 23:54:22 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] io_uring: remove unnecessary barrier after unsetting IORING_SQ_NEED_WAKEUP MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit There is no operation to order with afterwards, and removing the flag is not critical in any way. There will always be a "race condition" where the application will trigger IORING_ENTER_SQ_WAKEUP when it isn't actually needed.
