Hi, this is resending of the series, I previously sent. There are no changes in separate patches except of [4/6], which is rebased on recent tip.git. Two patches from the previous sending are already applied by Peter, so they are not in this series. They are: 83ced169d9a0 "locking/rwsem-xadd: Add killable versions of rwsem_down_read_failed()" and 0aa1125fa8bc "locking/rwsem-spinlock: Add killable versions of __down_read()" Also, there is one patch more [6/6], which was sent separate in the reply to the first series. So, there is no changes (except [4/6]). Please, take a look. --- The series introduces new down_read_killable() primitive, which is similar to down_read(), but it may be interrupted by a signal. The most touched is architectures code. Also, it marks a new user of the primitive, which is iterate_dir(). --- Kirill Tkhai (6): alpha: Add __down_read_killable() ia64: Add __down_read_killable() s390: Add __down_read_killable() x86: Add __down_read_killable() rwsem: Add down_read_killable() fs: Use killable down_read() in iterate_dir() arch/alpha/include/asm/rwsem.h | 18 ++++++++++++++++-- arch/ia64/include/asm/rwsem.h | 22 +++++++++++++++++++--- arch/s390/include/asm/rwsem.h | 18 ++++++++++++++++-- arch/x86/include/asm/rwsem.h | 35 +++++++++++++++++++++++++---------- arch/x86/lib/rwsem.S | 12 ++++++++++++ fs/readdir.c | 11 +++++------ include/asm-generic/rwsem.h | 8 ++++++++ include/linux/rwsem.h | 1 + kernel/locking/rwsem.c | 16 ++++++++++++++++ 9 files changed, 118 insertions(+), 23 deletions(-) -- Signed-off-by: Kirill Tkhai <ktkhai@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-s390" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
