Subject: [PATCH 1/2] WARN_ON_SMP(): Allow use in if statements on UP
Date: Thu, 17 Mar 2011 15:21:06 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110317192208.444147791@goodmis.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20110317192105.308382309@goodmis.org

[-- Attachment #1: 0001-WARN_ON_SMP-Allow-use-in-if-statements-on-UP.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 1737 bytes --]

From: Steven Rostedt <srostedt@redhat.com>

Both WARN_ON() and WARN_ON_SMP() should be able to be used in
an if statement.

	if (WARN_ON_SMP(foo)) { ... }

Because WARN_ON_SMP() is defined as a do { } while (0) on UP,
it can not be used this way.

Convert it to the same form that WARN_ON() is, even when
CONFIG_SMP is off.

+ * This is usually used for cases that we have

+ * It can be also be used with values that are only defined

+ * };
+ *
+ * void func(struct foo *zoot)
+ * {

+ *
+ * For CONFIG_SMP, WARN_ON_SMP() should act the same as WARN_ON(),
+ * and should be a nop and return false for uniprocessor.
+ *
+ * if (WARN_ON_SMP(x)) returns true only when CONFIG_SMP is set
+ * and x is true.
