Subject: [PATCH v1] ring-buffer: Clean up resize_disabled checks
Date: Mon, 14 Sep 2026 18:59:07 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260914175907.1027349-1-vdonnefort@google.com> (raw)
ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set() checks for resize_disabled twice under
the same buffer->mutex hold. Moreover, this check duplicates the logic
in ring_buffer_resize(). Create a common helper rb_resize_disabled() to
factor out this code.
Additionally, remove the unnecessary cpumask_test_cpu in
ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set().
for_each_buffer_cpu() already iterates over buffer->cpumask.
