Implement acpi_os_create_lock() as a C-preprocessor macro to suppress lockdep false positive. When lockdep is enabled the spin_lock_init macro stringifies it's argument and uses that as a name for the lock in the debugging. By executing spin_lock_init in a macro the key changes from "lock" for all locks to the actual argument of acpi_os_create_lock() ("&acpi_gbl_global_lock_pending_lock", "&acpi_gbl_gpe_lock" or "&acpi_gbl_hardware_lock" for now). This fixes: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38152 ChangeLog (v1 -> v2): - avoid to call spin_lock_init multiple times on the same lock - rewrite patch description (thanks to Florian for providing a better description of the patch) Reported-by: Borislav Petkov <bp@xxxxxxxxx> CC: Florian Mickler <florian@xxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Andrea Righi <andrea@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> --- drivers/acpi/osl.c | 3 +-- include/acpi/acpiosxf.h | 12 +++++++++++- 2 files changed, 12 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/drivers/acpi/osl.c b/drivers/acpi/osl.c index 52ca964..4c985d3 100644 --- a/drivers/acpi/osl.c +++ b/drivers/acpi/osl.c @@ -1336,14 +1336,13 @@ EXPORT_SYMBOL(acpi_resources_are_enforced); * Create and initialize a spinlock. */ acpi_status -acpi_os_create_lock(acpi_spinlock *out_handle) +__acpi_os_create_lock(acpi_spinlock *out_handle) { spinlock_t *lock; lock = ACPI_ALLOCATE(sizeof(spinlock_t)); if (!lock) return AE_NO_MEMORY; - spin_lock_init(lock); *out_handle = lock; return AE_OK; diff --git a/include/acpi/acpiosxf.h b/include/acpi/acpiosxf.h index a756bc8..4a0385d 100644 --- a/include/acpi/acpiosxf.h +++ b/include/acpi/acpiosxf.h @@ -99,7 +99,17 @@ acpi_os_table_override(struct acpi_table_header *existing_table, * Spinlock primitives */ acpi_status -acpi_os_create_lock(acpi_spinlock *out_handle); +__acpi_os_create_lock(acpi_spinlock *out_handle); + +#define acpi_os_create_lock(__handle) \ +({ \ + acpi_status ret; \ + \ + ret = __acpi_os_create_lock(__handle); \ + if (ret == AE_OK) \ + spin_lock_init(*(__handle)); \ + ret; \ +}) void acpi_os_delete_lock(acpi_spinlock handle); -- 1.7.4.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-acpi" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
