Subject: [PATCH v2 1/5] doc/memory-barriers: fix missed renaming: s/lock/acquire
Date: Fri, 11 Mar 2016 00:06:56 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1457622420-25591-2-git-send-email-sj38.park@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1457622420-25591-1-git-send-email-sj38.park@gmail.com>
Terms `lock` and `unlock` have changed to `acquire` / `release` by
commit 2e4f5382d12a441b5cccfdde00308df15c2ce300 ("locking/doc: Rename
LOCK/UNLOCK to ACQUIRE/RELEASE"). However, the commit missed to change
the table of content. This commit changes the missed parts.
Also, section name `Acquiring functions` is not appropriate for the
section because the section is saying about lock in actual. This commit
changes the name to more appropriate name, `Lock acquisition functions`.
