There is a memory barrier in followed case. When set the port down, hclgevf_set_timmer will set DOWN in state. Meanwhile, the service task has different behaviour based on whether the state is DOWN. Thus, to make sure service task see DOWN, use smp_mb__after_atomic after calling set_bit(). CPU0 CPU1 ========================== =================================== hclgevf_set_timer_task() hclgevf_periodic_service_task() set_bit(DOWN,state) test_bit(DOWN,state) pf also has this issue.

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.
