[PATCH 00/11] Lock warning cleanup

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

 



This patch series adds missing annotations to functions that register warnings of context imbalance when built with Sparse tool.
The adds fix the warnings and give insight on what the functions are actually doing.

1. Within the futex subsystem, a __releases(&pi_state->.pi_mutex.wait_lock) is added because wake_futex_pi() only releases the lock at exit,
must_hold(q->lock_ptr) have been added to fixup_pi_state_owner() because the lock is held at entry and exit;
a __releases(&hb->lock) added to futex_wait_queue_me() as it only releases the lock.

2. Within fs_pin, a __releases(RCU) is added because the function exit RCU critical section at exit.

3. In kasan, an __acquires(&report_lock) has been added to start_report() and   __releases(&report_lock) to end_report() 

4. Within ring_buffer subsystem, a __releases(RCU) has been added perf_output_end() 

5. schedule subsystem recorded an addition of the __releases(rq->lock) annotation and a __must_hold(this_rq->lock)

6. At hrtimer subsystem, __acquires(timer) is added  to lock_hrtimer_base() as the function acquire the lock but never releases it.
