The sunvnet driver does not have an rmb() in the ring consumer corresponding to the wmb() in the producer. According to Documentation/memory-barriers.txt: "When dealing with CPU-CPU interactions, certain types of memory barrier should always be paired. A lack of appropriate pairing is almost certainly an error." In cases where an rmb() is not a no-op and a consumer is removing data from the ring while a producer is adding new entries, a load reorder would allow CPU1 CPU2 ---- ---- LOAD desc.size [e.g] STORE desc.size <wmb> set desc.hdr.state = VIO_DESC_READY LOAD desc.hdr.state [because VIO_DESC_READY, use old desc.size, already loaded out of order] [CPU2 has reordered apparently unrelated LOADs] To ensure other desc fields are not loaded before checking VIO_DESC_READY, we need an rmb() between the check and desc data accesses. I've also moved the viodbg() call to after the rmb() so that it, too, has current descriptor data even with reordering, which has the side effect that it won't print anything for descriptors that are not VIO_DESC_READY as before. That's a) probably a good thing, since the fields are not necessarily set and, b) better than adding another rmb() just for viodbg(). This would not be possible if strict-ordering is enforced, but then the memory barriers should be no-ops in that case.
