[PATCH 0/2] nfsd: improvements for wake_up_bit/var

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

 



I've been digging into wake_up_bit and wake_up_var recently.  There are
a lot of places where the required barriers aren't quite right.

This patch fixes them up for nfsd.  The bugs are mostly minor, though
the rp_locked on might be a credible problem on weakly ordered hosts
(e.g.  power64).
