Transfer findings from ipc/mqueue.c: - A control barrier was missing for the lockless receive case So in theory, not yet initialized data may have been copied to user space - obviously only for architectures where control barriers are not NOP. - use smp_store_release(). In theory, the refount may have been decreased to 0 already when wake_q_add() tries to get a reference.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
