A barrier is needed here to ensure that rtl_tx sees the descriptor changes (DescOwn set) before the updated tp->cur_tx value. Else it may wrongly assume that the transfer has been finished already. For this purpose smp_wmb() is sufficient. No separate barrier is needed for ordering the descriptor changes with the MMIO doorbell write. The needed barrier is included in the non-relaxed writel() used by rtl8169_doorbell(). Signed-off-by: Heiner Kallweit <hkallweit1@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
