Subject: [PATCH] pstore: replace spinlock_t by raw_spinlock_t
Date: Mon, 19 Aug 2024 22:59:45 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240819145945.61274-1-wen.yang@linux.dev> (raw)

pstore_dump() is called when both preemption and local IRQ are disabled,
and a spinlock is obtained, which is problematic for the RT kernel because
in this configuration, spinlocks are sleep locks.

Replace the spinlock_t with raw_spinlock_t to avoid sleeping in atomic context.
