Subject: [PATCH tip/core/urgent] v2 rcu: updates for RCU lockdep
Date: Fri, 9 Apr 2010 15:38:43 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100409223843.GA25133@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100409054701.GA8833@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
Hello!
These four patches provides a pair of new APIs and documentation to handle
a couple of cases that David Howells came across when running an NFS
workload under CONFIG_PROVE_RCU, along with some comment improvements
suggested by David and also some by Yong Zhang.
Updated from v1 (http://lkml.org/lkml/2010/4/9/28) to reflect David's
and Eric Dumazet's comments:
o Remove (void*) cast from rcu_access_pointer().
o Merge identical definitions of rcu_access_pointer() outside
of #ifdef.
o Merge comment syntax-error fix into comment patch.
Thanx, Paul
