[PATCH v4] staging: greybus: Convert uart.c from IDR to XArray

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

 



Convert greybus/uart.c from IDR to XArray. The abstract data type XArray
is more memory-efficient, parallelisable, and cache friendly. It takes
advantage of RCU to perform lookups without locking. Furthermore, IDR is
deprecated because XArray has a better (cleaner and more consistent) API.

v3->v4: 
	Remove mutex_lock/unlock around xa_load(). These locks seem to
	be unnecessary because there is a 1:1 correspondence between
	a specific minor and its gb_tty and there is no reference
	counting. I think that the RCU locks used inside xa_load()
	are sufficient to protect this API from returning an invalid
	gb_tty in case of concurrent access. Some more considerations 
	on this topic are in the following message to linux-kernel list:
	https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/3554184.2JXonMZcNW@localhost.localdomain/
v2->v3:
        Fix some issues according to a review by Alex Elder <elder@xxxxxxxx>
v1->v2:
        Fix an issue found by the kernel test robot. It is due to
        passing to xa_*lock() the same old mutex that IDR used with
        the previous version of the code.
