Commit 316580b6 ("u64_stats: provide u64_stats_t type") fixed possible load/store tearing on 64bit arches. For instance the following C code stats->nsecs += sched_clock() - start; Could be rightfully implemented like this by a compiler, confusing concurrent readers a lot: stats->nsecs += sched_clock(); // arbitrary delay stats->nsecs -= start; Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Link: https://lore.kernel.org/bpf/20211026214133.3114279-4-eric.dumazet@gmail.com
