Subject: [PATCH v5 1/2] uprobes: Remove redundant spinlock in uprobe_deny_signal()
Date: Fri, 24 Jan 2025 09:38:25 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250124093826.2123675-2-liaochang1@huawei.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250124093826.2123675-1-liaochang1@huawei.com>
Since clearing a bit in thread_info is an atomic operation, the spinlock
is redundant and can be removed, reducing lock contention is good for
performance.
