patch "usb: dwc3: gadget: Prevent core from processing stale TRBs" added to usb-linus
Subsystems (3)
This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled
usb: dwc3: gadget: Prevent core from processing stale TRBs
to my usb git tree which can be found at
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/usb.git
in the usb-linus branch.
The patch will show up in the next release of the linux-next tree (usually sometime within the next 24 hours during the week.)
The patch will hopefully also be merged in Linus's tree for the next -rc kernel release.
If you have any questions about this process, please let me know.

Subject: usb: dwc3: gadget: Prevent core from processing stale TRBs
With CPU re-ordering on write instructions, there might be a chance that the HWO is set before the TRB is updated with the new mapped buffer address.
And in the case where core is processing a list of TRBs it is possible that it fetched the TRBs when the HWO is set but before the buffer address is updated.
Prevent this by adding a memory barrier before the HWO is updated to ensure that the core always process the updated TRBs.
