From ed32169be1ccb9b1a295275ba7746dc6bf103e80 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johan Hovold Date: Tue, 17 Jun 2025 10:44:02 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] wifi: ath12k: fix dest ring-buffer corruption when ring is full Add the missing memory barriers to make sure that destination ring descriptors are read before updating the tail pointer (and passing ownership to the device) to avoid memory corruption on weakly ordered architectures like aarch64 when the ring is full.
