Oleg Nesterov recently noticed that the lockdep annotations in lglock.c are not sufficient to detect some obvious deadlocks, such as lg_local_lock(LOCK) + lg_local_lock(LOCK) or spin_lock(X) + lg_local_lock(Y) vs lg_local_lock(Y) + spin_lock(X). Both issues are easily fixed by indicating to lockdep that lglock's local locks are not recursive. We shouldn't use the rwlock acquire/release functions here, as lglock doesn't share the same semantics. Instead we can base our lockdep annotations on the lock_acquire_shared (for local lglock) and lock_acquire_exclusive (for global lglock) helpers. I am not proposing new lglock specific helpers as I don't see the point of the existing second level of helpers :) Noticed-by: NOleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: NMichel Lespinasse <walken@google.com> Cc: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@cn.fujitsu.com> Cc: "Srivatsa S.

lglocks and brlocks are currently generated with some complicated macros in lglock.h. But there's no reason to not just use common utility functions and put all the data into a common data structure. Since there are at least two users it makes sense to share this code in a library. This is also easier maintainable than a macro forest. This will also make it later possible to dynamically allocate lglocks and also use them in modules (this would both still need some additional, but now straightforward, code) [akpm@linux-foundation.org: checkpatch fixes] Signed-off-by: NAndi Kleen <ak@linux.intel.com> Cc: Al Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk> Cc: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: NAndrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: NRusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Signed-off-by: NAl Viro <viro@zeniv.linux.org.uk>
