[PATCH 0/3] Avoiding lockdep warnings in 6lowpan

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

 



Hi,

patch 1 changes all rwlocks to RCU as suggested by Peter Hurley.
This should help the performance.

The patch 2 is ported from ieee802154 as suggested by Alex Aring.
This will help avoid lockdep warnings in certain transmit scenarios.

The patch 3 changes normal spin locks to spin_lock_bh() variant when
queueing outgoing packets in hci_queue_acl(). This is needed as packets
coming from 6lowpan link are sent from softirq. Thanks again to
Peter Hurley pointing this out.


Cheers,
Jukka
