[PATCH v5 27/44] tty: Drop lock contention stat from ldsem trylocks

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

 



When lockdep is notified of lock contention, lockdep expects its
internal state to indicate the lock is held. Since trylocks cannot
reflect this state unless the lock is actually acquired, contention
stats cannot be collected for trylocks.

Fixes:
