[PATCH -mm1 1/2] fixing idr_find() locking

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



[PATCH 01/02]


This is a patch that fixes the way idr_find() used to be called in ipc_lock():
in all the paths that don't imply an update of the ipcs idr, it was called
without the idr tree being locked.

The changes are:
  . in ipc_ids, the mutex has been changed into a reader/writer semaphore.
  . ipc_lock() now takes the mutex as a reader during the idr_find().
  . a new routine ipc_lock_down() has been defined: it doesn't take the
    mutex, assuming that it is being held by the caller. This is the routine
    that is now called in all the update paths.
