From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" <rafael.j.wysocki@intel.com> driver inclusion category: bugfix bugzilla: https://atomgit.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/8343 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The handling of the limits_changed flag in struct sugov_policy needs to be explicitly synchronized to ensure that cpufreq policy limits updates will not be missed in some cases. Without that synchronization it is theoretically possible that the limits_changed update in sugov_should_update_freq() will be reordered with respect to the reads of the policy limits in cpufreq_driver_resolve_freq() and in that case, if the limits_changed update in sugov_limits() clobbers the one in sugov_should_update_freq(), the new policy limits may not take effect for a long time. Likewise, the limits_changed update in sugov_limits() may theoretically get reordered with respect to the updates of the policy limits in cpufreq_set_policy() and if sugov_should_update_freq() runs between them, the policy limits change may be missed. To ensure that the above situations will not take place, add memory barriers preventing the reordering in question from taking place and add READ_ONCE() and WRITE_ONCE() annotations around all of the limits_changed flag updates to prevent the compiler from messing up with that code.
