[PATCH rdma-next v5 4/9] RDMA/restrack: Reduce scope of synchronization lock while updating DB

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

 



From: Leon Romanovsky <leonro@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

XArray uses internal lock for updates to XArray. This means that our
external RW lock is needed to ensure that entry is not deleted while
we are performing iteration over list.
