Subject: [PATCH v4 05/20] nvme: add context annotations for nvme_ns_head::srcu
Date: Mon, 13 Jul 2026 17:24:06 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260713115444.465704-6-nilay@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260713115444.465704-1-nilay@linux.ibm.com>
Add Clang lock context annotations for helpers that operate under
head->srcu read-side protection.
The path selection helpers invoked by nvme_find_path() access SRCU-
protected data through srcu_dereference() or list APIs which iterate
through rcu protected list and therefore require the caller to hold
head->srcu. Annotate these helpers and nvme_find_path() with
__must_hold_shared(&head->srcu) so that Clang's lock context analysis
can verify the SRCU locking requirements across the call chain.
Also update nvme_ns_head_ctrl_ioctl() to use __releases_shared()
to match the shared SRCU read-side lock acquired through
srcu_read_lock().
