Subject: [ 31/65] random: use lockless techniques in the interrupt path
Date: Mon, 13 Aug 2012 15:14:15 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120813221417.702230387@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120813221414.965154048@linuxfoundation.org>

From: Greg KH <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>

3.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Theodore Ts'o <tytso@mit.edu>

commit 902c098a3663de3fa18639efbb71b6080f0bcd3c upstream.

The real-time Linux folks don't like add_interrupt_randomness() taking
a spinlock since it is called in the low-level interrupt routine.
This also allows us to reduce the overhead in the fast path, for the
random driver, which is the interrupt collection path.
