[RFC 1/3] add macros for new sparse features

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

 



This patch adds kernel macros for a few new sparse features, namely
 * checking try_lock functions and
 * making a function or macro require a certain lock.

Still waiting to see what the sparse folks say to my patches.
