Impact: bugfix Considering the situation as follow: before: mcelog.next == 1, mcelog.entry[0].finished = 1 +-------------------------------------------------------------------------- R W1 W2 W3 read mcelog.next (1) mcelog.next++ (2) (working on entry 1, finished == 0) mcelog.next = 0 mcelog.next++ (1) (working on entry 0) mcelog.next++ (2) (working on entry 1) <----------------- race ----------------> (done on entry 1, finished = 1) (done on entry 1, finished = 1) To fix the race condition, a cmpxchg loop is added to mce_read() to ensure no new MCE record can be added between mcelog.next reading and mcelog.next = 0.
