Hello Greg, After some investigation, I think that removing these wrappers is not going to improve the code readability: On Wed, Nov 26, 2014 at 12:54:43PM -0800, Greg KH wrote: > On Wed, Nov 26, 2014 at 05:15:48PM +0100, Loic Pefferkorn wrote: > > Add __acquires() and __releases() function annotations, to fix sparse warnings related to lock context imbalance. > > > > This fixes the following warnings: > > > > drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/libcfs/linux/linux-tracefile.c:153:5: warning: context imbalance in 'cfs_trace_lock_tcd' - wrong count at exit > > drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/libcfs/hash.c:128:1: warning: context imbalance in 'cfs_hash_spin_lock' - wrong count at exit > > drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/libcfs/hash.c:142:9: warning: context imbalance in 'cfs_hash_rw_lock' - wrong count at exit > > drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/ptlrpc/../../lustre/ldlm/l_lock.c:57:17: warning: context imbalance in 'lock_res_and_lock' - wrong count at exit > > drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/libcfs/libcfs_lock.c:93:1: warning: context imbalance in 'cfs_percpt_lock' - wrong count at exit > > > > Signed-off-by: Loic Pefferkorn <loic@xxxxxxxx> > > --- > > drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/libcfs/hash.c | 4 ++++ > > drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/libcfs/libcfs_lock.c | 2 ++ > > drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/libcfs/linux/linux-tracefile.c | 2 ++ > > drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/obdclass/cl_object.c | 2 ++ > > 4 files changed, 10 insertions(+) > > > > diff --git a/drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/libcfs/hash.c b/drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/libcfs/hash.c > > index 32da783..7c6e2a3 100644 > > --- a/drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/libcfs/hash.c > > +++ b/drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/libcfs/hash.c > > @@ -126,18 +126,21 @@ cfs_hash_nl_unlock(union cfs_hash_lock *lock, int exclusive) {} > > > > static inline void > > cfs_hash_spin_lock(union cfs_hash_lock *lock, int exclusive) > > + __acquires(&lock->spin) > > { > > spin_lock(&lock->spin); > > } > > > > static inline void > > cfs_hash_spin_unlock(union cfs_hash_lock *lock, int exclusive) > > + __releases(&lock->spin) > > { > > spin_unlock(&lock->spin); > > } > > Ugh, how horrid, please just delete these functions and push down the > spin_lock/unlock calls down into the places these are called. cfs_hash_spin_lock() and cfs_hash_spin_unlock() are referenced by function pointers later in the same file: 165 /** no bucket lock, one spinlock to protect everything */ 166 static cfs_hash_lock_ops_t cfs_hash_nbl_lops = { 167 .hs_lock = cfs_hash_spin_lock, 168 .hs_unlock = cfs_hash_spin_unlock, 169 .hs_bkt_lock = cfs_hash_nl_lock, 170 .hs_bkt_unlock = cfs_hash_nl_unlock, 171 }; 172 173 /** spin bucket lock, rehash is enabled */ 174 static cfs_hash_lock_ops_t cfs_hash_bkt_spin_lops = { 175 .hs_lock = cfs_hash_rw_lock, 176 .hs_unlock = cfs_hash_rw_unlock, 177 .hs_bkt_lock = cfs_hash_spin_lock, 178 .hs_bkt_unlock = cfs_hash_spin_unlock, 179 }; > > > > > static inline void > > cfs_hash_rw_lock(union cfs_hash_lock *lock, int exclusive) > > + __acquires(&lock->rw) > > { > > if (!exclusive) > > read_lock(&lock->rw); > > @@ -147,6 +150,7 @@ cfs_hash_rw_lock(union cfs_hash_lock *lock, int exclusive) > > > > static inline void > > cfs_hash_rw_unlock(union cfs_hash_lock *lock, int exclusive) > > + __releases(&lock->rw) > > { > > if (!exclusive) > > read_unlock(&lock->rw); > > > Same for these.

These ones are easy to replace, but the naming scheme of all functions in cl_object.c is consistent, from my point of view it ease code reading where they are called, for example in lustre/lustre/osc/osc_request.c: before: 1827 if (valid != 0) { 1828 cl_object_attr_lock(obj); 1829 cl_object_attr_set(env, obj, attr, valid); 1830 cl_object_attr_unlock(obj); after: 1827 if (valid != 0) { 1828 spin_lock(cl_object_attr_guard(obj)); 1829 cl_object_attr_set(env, obj, attr, valid); 1830 spin_unlock(cl_object_attr_guard(obj)); But I'm here for learning, and I would be grateful to have your opinion. -- Cheers, Loic _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://driverdev.linuxdriverproject.org/mailman/listinfo/driverdev-devel
