Subject: Using lockdep instead of spin_is_locked()
Date: Tue, 2 Oct 2018 22:38:46 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20181003053902.6910-1-ldr709@gmail.com> (raw)
One of the main uses of spin_is_locked() is to require that a lock is held when
a function is called, for debugging, but lockdep_assert_held() is better for
this purpose since it won't make a mistake when someone else is holding the
lock. This patch series replaces all of this kind of use of spin_is_locked()
with calls to lockdep_assert_held(). An ulterior motive is to reduce the number
of uses of spin_is_locked() from the kernel, to work towards possibly
eliminating it.
Thanks,
Lance
