Subject: [PATCH tip/core/urgent 09/10] blk-cgroup: Fix RCU correctness warning in cfq_init_queue()
Date: Mon, 3 May 2010 11:53:18 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1272912799-17859-9-git-send-email-paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100503185253.GA17672@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
From: Vivek Goyal <vgoyal@redhat.com>
It is necessary to be in an RCU read-side critical section when invoking
css_id(), so this patch adds one to blkiocg_add_blkio_group(). This is
actually a false positive, because this is called at initialization time
and hence always refers to the root cgroup, which cannot go away.
