Subject: Re: [PATCH][RFC/v2][2/21] Add core InfiniBand support
Date: Tue, 23 Nov 2004 15:31:10 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <52mzx82ldt.fsf@topspin.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20041123172256.GA30264@kroah.com> (Greg KH's message of "Tue, 23 Nov 2004 09:22:56 -0800")
I've just checked in a change that converts this file from using RCU
to protecting its structures with an rwlock_t. This should avoid any
patent licensing issues. These functions are extremely unlikely to
have SMP scalability issues so this isn't too painful.
Thanks,
Roland
