Subject: [PATCH 10/23] nvmet: add context annotation for nvmet_ns::nguid
Date: Mon, 9 Nov 2026 08:58:15 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261109033102.982191-35-nilay@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261109033102.982191-25-nilay@linux.ibm.com>
The nvmet_ns::nguid field is protected by nvmet_subsys::lock. Annotate
it with __guarded_by(&subsys->lock) so that the clang context analyzer
can validate accesses to this field.
Some accesses to nvmet_ns::nguid in the I/O hotpath do not require
holding nvmet_subsys::lock, as the namespace reference guarantees that
the namespace remains valid and the field is not modified while I/O is
in flight. However, the clang context analyzer cannot express this
access pattern directly.
Introduce nvmet_ns_nguid() as an inline helper annotated with
__context_unsafe() to allow these accesses without requiring the
subsystem lock. Convert the relevant accesses in the I/O hotpath and
request-processing paths to use this helper.
Additionally, acquire ns->subsys->lock in nvmet_ns_device_nguid_show()
before accessing ns->nguid, since this configfs control path does not
hold the lock.
