From 7535b832c6399b5ebfc5b53af5c51dd915ee2538 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Kees Cook Date: Fri, 16 Dec 2022 12:26:57 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] exit: Use READ_ONCE() for all oops/warn limit reads Use a temporary variable to take full advantage of READ_ONCE() behavior. Without this, the report (and even the test) might be out of sync with the initial test.
