[PATCH] lockdep: annotate reiserfs

2006-08-27T18:01:32+00:00

reiserfs seems to have another locking level layer for the i_mutex due to the
xattrs-are-a-directory thing.

VFS: Allow caller to determine if BSD or posix locks were actually freed

2006-07-05T17:13:17+00:00

Change posix_lock_file_conf(), and flock_lock_file() so that if called
with an F_UNLCK argument, and the FL_EXISTS flag they will indicate
whether or not any locks were actually freed by returning 0 or -ENOENT.

[PATCH] lockdep: annotate blkdev nesting

2006-07-03T22:27:10+00:00

Teach special (recursive) locking code to the lock validator.

Effects on non-lockdep kernels:

- the introduction of the following function variants:

  extern struct block_device *open_partition_by_devnum(dev_t, unsigned);

  extern int blkdev_put_partition(struct block_device *);

  static int
  blkdev_get_whole(struct block_device *bdev, mode_t mode, unsigned flags);

 which on non-lockdep are the same as open_by_devnum(), blkdev_put()
 and blkdev_get().

- a subclass parameter to do_open(). [unused on non-lockdep]

- a subclass parameter to __blkdev_put(), which is a new internal
  function for the main blkdev_put*() functions. [parameter unused
  on non-lockdep kernels, except for two sanity check WARN_ON()s]

these functions carry no semantical difference - they only express
object dependencies towards the lockdep subsystem.

[PATCH] lockdep: annotate sb ->s_umount

2006-07-03T22:27:09+00:00

The s_umount rwsem needs to be classified as per-superblock since it's
perfectly legit to keep multiple of those recursively in the VFS locking
rules.

Has no effect on non-lockdep kernels.

[PATCH] lockdep: annotate ->s_lock

2006-07-03T22:27:09+00:00

Teach special (per-filesystem) locking code to the lock validator.

Minimal effect on non-lockdep kernels: one extra parameter to alloc_super().

[PATCH] mark address_space_operations const

2006-06-28T21:59:04+00:00

Same as with already do with the file operations: keep them in .rodata and
prevents people from doing runtime patching.
