Petr Mladek 8b46ff6938 ring_buffer: Do no not complete benchmark reader too early
It seems that complete(&read_done) might be called too early
in some situations.

1st scenario:
-------------

CPU0					CPU1

ring_buffer_producer_thread()
  wake_up_process(consumer);
  wait_for_completion(&read_start);

					ring_buffer_consumer_thread()
					  complete(&read_start);

  ring_buffer_producer()
    # producing data in
    # the do-while cycle

					  ring_buffer_consumer();
					    # reading data
					    # got error
					    # set kill_test = 1;
					    set_current_state(
						TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE);
					    if (reader_finish)  # false
					    schedule();

    # producer still in the middle of
    # do-while cycle
    if (consumer && !(cnt % wakeup_interval))
      wake_up_process(consumer);

					    # spurious wakeup
					    while (!reader_finish &&
						   !kill_test)
					    # leaving because
					    # kill_test == 1
					    reader_finish = 0;
					    complete(&read_done);

1st BANG: We might access uninitialized "read_done" if this is the
	  the first round.

    # producer finally leaving
    # the do-while cycle because kill_test == 1;

    if (consumer) {
      reader_finish = 1;
      wake_up_process(consumer);
      wait_for_completion(&read_done);

2nd BANG: This will never complete because consumer already did
	  the completion.

2nd scenario:
-------------

CPU0					CPU1

ring_buffer_producer_thread()
  wake_up_process(consumer);
  wait_for_completion(&read_start);

					ring_buffer_consumer_thread()
					  complete(&read_start);

  ring_buffer_producer()
    # CPU3 removes the module	  <--- difference from
    # and stops producer          <--- the 1st scenario
    if (kthread_should_stop())
      kill_test = 1;

					  ring_buffer_consumer();
					    while (!reader_finish &&
						   !kill_test)
					    # kill_test == 1 => we never go
					    # into the top level while()
					    reader_finish = 0;
					    complete(&read_done);

    # producer still in the middle of
    # do-while cycle
    if (consumer && !(cnt % wakeup_interval))
      wake_up_process(consumer);

					    # spurious wakeup
					    while (!reader_finish &&
						   !kill_test)
					    # leaving because kill_test == 1
					    reader_finish = 0;
					    complete(&read_done);

BANG: We are in the same "bang" situations as in the 1st scenario.

Root of the problem:
--------------------

ring_buffer_consumer() must complete "read_done" only when "reader_finish"
variable is set. It must not be skipped due to other conditions.

Note that we still must keep the check for "reader_finish" in a loop
because there might be spurious wakeups as described in the
above scenarios.

Solution:
----------

The top level cycle in ring_buffer_consumer() will finish only when
"reader_finish" is set. The data will be read in "while-do" cycle
so that they are not read after an error (kill_test == 1)
or a spurious wake up.

In addition, "reader_finish" is manipulated by the producer thread.
Therefore we add READ_ONCE() to make sure that the fresh value is
read in each cycle. Also we add the corresponding barrier
to synchronize the sleep check.

Next we set the state back to TASK_RUNNING for the situation where we
did not sleep.

Just from paranoid reasons, we initialize both completions statically.
This is safer, in case there are other races that we are unaware of.

As a side effect we could remove the memory barrier from
ring_buffer_producer_thread(). IMHO, this was the reason for
the barrier. ring_buffer_reset() uses spin locks that should
provide the needed memory barrier for using the buffer.
