Subject: [PATCH 1/7] mac80211: annotate station rcu dereferences
Date: Tue, 06 Apr 2010 11:18:42 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100406092141.174938785@sipsolutions.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20100406091841.549805267@sipsolutions.net
The new RCU lockdep support warns about these
in some contexts -- make it aware of the locks
used to protect all this. Different locks are
used in different contexts which unfortunately
means we can't get perfect checking.
Also remove rcu_dereference() from two places
that don't actually dereference the pointers.
