The Qdisc::running sequence counter has two uses: 1. Reliably reading qdisc's tc statistics while the qdisc is running (a seqcount read/retry loop at gnet_stats_add_basic()). 2. As a flag, indicating whether the qdisc in question is running (without any retry loops). For the first usage, the Qdisc::running sequence counter write section, qdisc_run_begin() => qdisc_run_end(), covers a much wider area than what is actually needed: the raw qdisc's bstats update. A u64_stats sync point was thus introduced (in previous commits) inside the bstats structure itself. A local u64_stats write section is then started and stopped for the bstats updates. Use that u64_stats sync point mechanism for the bstats read/retry loop at gnet_stats_add_basic(). For the second qdisc->running usage, a __QDISC_STATE_RUNNING bit flag, accessed with atomic bitops, is sufficient. Using a bit flag instead of a sequence counter at qdisc_run_begin/end() and qdisc_is_running() leads to the SMP barriers implicitly added through raw_read_seqcount() and write_seqcount_begin/end() getting removed. All call sites have been surveyed though, and no required ordering was identified. Now that the qdisc->running sequence counter is no longer used, remove it. Note, using u64_stats implies no sequence counter protection for 64-bit architectures. This can lead to the qdisc tc statistics "packets" vs. "bytes" values getting out of sync on rare occasions. The individual values will still be valid. Signed-off-by: Ahmed S. Darwish <a.darwish@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> Signed-off-by: David S.
