Subject: [PATCH net-next V10 01/14] devlink: Update nested instance locking comment
Date: Wed, 1 Jul 2026 10:32:41 +0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260701073254.754518-2-tariqt@nvidia.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260701073254.754518-1-tariqt@nvidia.com>
From: Cosmin Ratiu <cratiu@nvidia.com>
In commit [1] a comment about nested instance locking was updated. But
there's another place where this is mentioned, so update that as well.
[1] commit 0061b5199d7c ("devlink: Reverse locking order for nested
instances")

- Lock ordering should be maintained. If driver needs to take instance
lock of both nested and parent instances at the same time, devlink
- instance lock of the parent instance should be taken first, only then

- - Driver should use object-specific helpers to setup the nested relationship
- before registering the nested devlink instance:

devlink relationship (could be used for multiple nested instances).
