Subject: [PATCH 1/4] locking/rwsem: Avoid stale ->count for rwsem_down_write_failed()
Date: Sun, 8 May 2016 21:56:07 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1462769770-29363-2-git-send-email-dave@stgolabs.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1462769770-29363-1-git-send-email-dave@stgolabs.net>
The field is obviously updated w.o the lock and needs a READ_ONCE
while waiting for lock holder(s) to go away, just like we do with
all other ->count accesses.
