      scsi: autoconvert trivial BKL users to private mutex · c45d15d2
      Arnd Bergmann 提交于
      All these files use the big kernel lock in a trivial
      way to serialize their private file operations,
      typically resulting from an earlier semi-automatic
      pushdown from VFS.
      
      None of these drivers appears to want to lock against
      other code, and they all use the BKL as the top-level
      lock in their file operations, meaning that there
      is no lock-order inversion problem.
      
      Consequently, we can remove the BKL completely,
      replacing it with a per-file mutex in every case.
      Using a scripted approach means we can avoid
      typos.
      
      file=$1
      name=$2
      if grep -q lock_kernel ${file} ; then
          if grep -q 'include.*linux.mutex.h' ${file} ; then
                  sed -i '/include.*<linux\/smp_lock.h>/d' ${file}
          else
                  sed -i 's/include.*<linux\/smp_lock.h>.*$/include <linux\/mutex.h>/g' ${file}
          fi
          sed -i ${file} \
              -e "/^#include.*linux.mutex.h/,$ {
                      1,/^\(static\|int\|long\)/ {
                           /^\(static\|int\|long\)/istatic DEFINE_MUTEX(${name}_mutex);
      
      } }"  \
          -e "s/\(un\)*lock_kernel\>[ ]*()/mutex_\1lock(\&${name}_mutex)/g" \
          -e '/[      ]*cycle_kernel_lock();/d'
      else
          sed -i -e '/include.*\<smp_lock.h\>/d' ${file}  \
                      -e '/cycle_kernel_lock()/d'
      fi
