Add the missing memory barrier to make sure that the REO dest ring descriptor is read after the head pointer to avoid using stale data on weakly ordered architectures like aarch64. This may fix the ring-buffer corruption worked around by commitf9fff67d2d("wifi: ath11k: Fix SKB corruption in REO destination ring") by silently discarding data, and may possibly also address user reported errors like: ath11k_pci 0006:01:00.0: msdu_done bit in attention is not set Tested-on: WCN6855 hw2.1 WLAN.HSP.1.1-03125-QCAHSPSWPL_V1_V2_SILICONZ_LITE-3.6510.41 Fixes:d5c65159f2("ath11k: driver for Qualcomm IEEE 802.11ax devices") Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org # 5.6 Link: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=218005 Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold <johan+linaro@kernel.org> Tested-by: Clayton Craft <clayton@craftyguy.net> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250321145302.4775-1-johan+linaro@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jeff Johnson <jeff.johnson@oss.qualcomm.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
