Michael Kelley 44f95a5aae Drivers: hv: vmbus: Prevent load re-ordering when reading ring buffer
[ Upstream commit b6cae15b57 ]

When reading a packet from a host-to-guest ring buffer, there is no
memory barrier between reading the write index (to see if there is
a packet to read) and reading the contents of the packet. The Hyper-V
host uses store-release when updating the write index to ensure that
writes of the packet data are completed first. On the guest side,
the processor can reorder and read the packet data before the write
index, and sometimes get stale packet data. Getting such stale packet
data has been observed in a reproducible case in a VM on ARM64.

Fix this by using virt_load_acquire() to read the write index,
ensuring that reads of the packet data cannot be reordered
before it. Preventing such reordering is logically correct, and
with this change, getting stale data can no longer be reproduced.

README

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 Restructured Text 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.
