Folks, any suggestions on better names? The semantics we are getting is
I will welcome any better name suggestion and will incorporate that
in the patch.
FWIW, the suggestions I've seen so far had been
seq_exreadlock() [ex for exclusive]
seq_exclreadlock() [ditto, and IMO fails the "easily read over the phone"
test - /sekv-excre...ARRGH/]
seq_prot_readlock() [prot for protected, as in DLM protected read]
Following the naming convention in seqlock.h that all functions begin
with read_ or write_, is read_seqexcl_lock() look OK to you?
