commit 0ae1e719118d8aa6754b19fb388038632fa768b3 Author: Konrad Rzeszutek Wilk <konrad.wilk@xxxxxxxxxx> AuthorDate: Thu Mar 10 08:26:42 2016 +0100 Commit: Jan Beulich <jbeulich@xxxxxxxx> CommitDate: Thu Mar 10 08:26:42 2016 +0100 libvchan: Read prod/cons only once. We must ensure that the prod/cons are only read once and that the compiler won't try to optimize the reads. That is split the read of these in multiple instructions influencing later branch code. As such insert barriers when fetching the cons and prod index. This is part of XSA155.
