Since we now run process_csb() outside of the engine->active.lock, we can process a CS-event immediately upon our ELSP write. As we currently inspect the pending queue *after* the ELSP write, there is an opportunity for a CS-event to update the pending queue before we can read it, making ourselves chases an invalid pointer.

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.
