Subject: [GIT PULL] percpu fixes for 2.6.34-rc3
Date: Mon, 05 Apr 2010 11:59:10 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4BB951FE.3090402@kernel.org> (raw)
Hello, Linus.
Please pull from the following percpu branch.
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tj/percpu.git for-linus
lockdep was hardcoding conditions to determine whether an address
belongs to percpu area. With recent percpu allocator changes, the
logic no longer is correct triggering bogus warning messages. The
above branch implements is_kernel/module_percpu_address() and makes
lockdep use them instead.
Has been tested in linux-next and pulls cleanly into
db217dece3003df0841bacf9556b5c06aa097dae.
Thanks.
Randy Dunlap (1):
module: add stub for is_module_percpu_address
Tejun Heo (2):
module: encapsulate percpu handling better and record percpu_size
percpu, module: implement and use is_kernel/module_percpu_address()
