Subject: [PATCH net v2 2/2] netdevsim: psp: use atomic64 for psp stats counters
Date: Fri, 29 May 2026 06:15:28 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260529-fix-psp-stats-v2-2-3a194eacf18e@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260529-fix-psp-stats-v2-0-3a194eacf18e@gmail.com>
The existing u64_stats_t-based psp counters had two preexisting api
usage bugs: u64_stats_init() was never called on the syncp object, and
the writer side of the u64_stats_update_begin()/end() api was not
serialized. Switch the counters to atomic64_t instead. Atomics need
no initialization and are inherently safe against concurrent writers,
eliminating both bugs at once.
Use atomic64_t rather than atomic_long_t so byte counters don't wrap
at 4 GiB on 32-bit builds.
Fixes: 178f0763c5f3 ("netdevsim: implement psp device stats")
