[PATCH v1 16/17] SUNRPC: discard sp_lock

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

 



From: NeilBrown <neilb@xxxxxxx>

sp_lock is now only used to protect sp_all_threads.  This isn't needed
as sp_all_threads is only manipulated through svc_set_num_threads(),
which is already serialized.  Read-acccess only requires rcu_read_lock().
So no more locking is needed.
