An S4 (suspend to disk) test on the LoongArch 3A6000 platform sometimes
fails with the following error messaged in the dmesg log:
Invalid LZO compressed length
That happens because when compressing/decompressing the image, the
synchronization between the control thread and the compress/decompress/crc
thread is based on a relaxed ordering interface, which is unreliable, and the
following situation may occur:
CPU 0 CPU 1
save_image_lzo lzo_compress_threadfn
atomic_set(&d->stop, 1);
atomic_read(&data[thr].stop)
data[thr].cmp = data[thr].cmp_len;
WRITE data[thr].cmp_len
Then CPU0 gets a stale cmp_len and writes it to disk. During resume from S4,
wrong cmp_len is loaded.
To maintain data consistency between the two threads, use the acquire/release
variants of atomic set and read operations.

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.
