From 4fc570bcbe77f823aae183dd824869f79e74cc97 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ralph Campbell Date: Fri, 6 Jul 2007 12:48:23 -0700 Subject: IB/ipath: Add barrier before updating WC head in shared memory Add a barrier to make sure the CPU doesn't reorder writes to memory, since user programs can be polling on the head index update and the entry should be written before that.
