Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 4/9] doc/RCU/listRCU: Update example function name
Date: Fri, 14 Feb 2020 15:38:58 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200214233903.12916-4-paulmck@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <@@@>
From: SeongJae Park <sjpark@amazon.de>
listRCU.rst document gives an example with 'ipc_lock()', but the
function has dropped off by commit 82061c57ce93 ("ipc: drop
ipc_lock()"). Because the main logic of 'ipc_lock()' has melded in
'shm_lock()' by the commit, this commit updates the document to use
'shm_lock()' instead.
