I'm Ok with that. The change I have issues with is: -#define __seqcount_lock_preemptible(s) __seqprop(s, preemptible) +#define __seqcount_associated_lock_exists_and_is_preemptible(s) __seqprop(s, preemptible) That's just _realllllllly_ long. Would something like the below make it easier to follow? seqprop_preemptible() is 'obviously' related to __seqprop_preemptible() without having to follow through the _Generic token pasting maze. --- diff --git a/include/linux/seqlock.h b/include/linux/seqlock.h index 8d8552474c64..576594add921 100644 --- a/include/linux/seqlock.h +++ b/include/linux/seqlock.h @@ -307,10 +307,10 @@ SEQCOUNT_LOCKNAME(ww_mutex, struct ww_mutex, true, &s->lock->base, ww_mu __seqprop_case((s), mutex, prop), \ __seqprop_case((s), ww_mutex, prop)) -#define __seqcount_ptr(s) __seqprop(s, ptr) -#define __seqcount_sequence(s) __seqprop(s, sequence) -#define __seqcount_lock_preemptible(s) __seqprop(s, preemptible) -#define __seqcount_assert_lock_held(s) __seqprop(s, assert) +#define seqprop_ptr(s) __seqprop(s, ptr) +#define seqprop_sequence(s) __seqprop(s, sequence) +#define seqprop_preemptible(s) __seqprop(s, preemptible) +#define seqprop_assert(s) __seqprop(s, assert) /** * __read_seqcount_begin() - begin a seqcount_t read section w/o barrier @@ -330,7 +330,7 @@ SEQCOUNT_LOCKNAME(ww_mutex, struct ww_mutex, true, &s->lock->base, ww_mu ({ \ unsigned __seq;
