Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Futex minor fixes
Date: Tue, 26 Aug 2003 13:05:56 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20030826031939.F1D762C0FA@lists.samba.org> (raw)
Hi Andrew, Ingo,
This was posted before, but dropped.
Name: Minor futex comment tweaks and cleanups
Author: Rusty Russell
Status: Tested on 2.6.0-test4-bk2
D: Changes:
D:
D: (1) don't return 0 from futex_wait if we are somehow
D: spuriously woken up, return -EINTR on any such case,
D:
D: (2) remove bogus comment about address no longer being in this
D: address space: we hold the mm lock, and __pin_page succeeded, so it
D: can't be true,
D:
D: (3) remove bogus comment about "get_user might fault and schedule",
D:
D: (4) remove list_empty check: we still hold the lock, so it can
D: never happen.
D:
D: (5) Single error exit path, and move __queue_me to the end (order
D: doesn't matter since we're inside the futex lock).
