Subject: [PATCH 5/8] kernel: convert process/thread iterators to for_each_*_rcu
Date: Fri, 4 Sep 2026 16:29:57 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260904083001.553587-6-ye.liu@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260904083001.553587-1-ye.liu@linux.dev>
From: Ye Liu <liuye@kylinos.cn>
Replace the manual rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() and guard(rcu)
pairs combined with for_each_process(), for_each_thread() and
for_each_process_thread() loops across kernel/ with the
for_each_*_rcu() macros.
No functional change.
