Subject: [PATCH v3 04/18] nvme: add context annotations for nvme_ns_head::requeue_list
Date: Mon, 6 Jul 2026 19:44:06 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260706141452.3008233-5-nilay@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260706141452.3008233-1-nilay@linux.ibm.com>
nvme_ns_head::requeue_list is protected by
nvme_ns_head::requeue_lock. Annotate requeue_list with
__guarded_by(&requeue_lock) so that Clang's context analysis can
validate accesses to the list.
For zero-initialized objects, bio_list_init() is a no-op. Remove the
redundant initialization from nvme_mpath_alloc_disk(), which
initializes nvme_ns_head::requeue_list. Besides simplifying the code,
this also avoids a false positive from Clang's context analysis, which
would otherwise warn about accessing nvme_ns_head::requeue_list
without holding nvme_ns_head::requeue_lock.
