Let's have a look at this piece of code in __bread_slow: get_bh(bh); bh->b_end_io = end_buffer_read_sync; submit_bh(REQ_OP_READ, 0, bh); wait_on_buffer(bh); if (buffer_uptodate(bh)) return bh; Neither wait_on_buffer nor buffer_uptodate contain any memory barrier. Consequently, if someone calls sb_bread and then reads the buffer data, the read of buffer data may be executed before wait_on_buffer(bh) on architectures with weak memory ordering and it may return invalid data. Fix this bug by adding a memory barrier to set_buffer_uptodate and an acquire barrier to buffer_uptodate (in a similar way as folio_test_uptodate and folio_mark_uptodate).
