Subject: [GIT PULL] locking changes for v5.8
Date: Mon, 1 Jun 2020 15:32:28 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200601133228.GA834929@gmail.com> (raw)

Linus,

Please pull the latest locking/core git tree from:

   # HEAD: 19f545b6e07f753c4dc639c2f0ab52345733b6a8 zram: Use local lock to protect per-CPU data

The biggest change to core locking facilities in this cycle is the introduction
of local_lock_t - this primitive comes from the -rt project and identifies
CPU-local locking dependencies normally handled opaquely beind preempt_disable()
or local_irq_save/disable() critical sections.

The generated code on mainline kernels doesn't change as a result, but still there
are benefits: improved debugging and better documentation of data structure
accesses.

The new local_lock_t primitives are introduced and then utilized in a couple of
kernel subsystems. No change in functionality is intended.

There's also other smaller changes and cleanups.

 Thanks,

	Ingo
