The proof also does not depend on + timing: if a race and a resulting deadlock is possible + theoretically (no matter how unlikely the race scenario + is), it will be proven so and will immediately be + reported by the kernel (once the event is observed that + makes the deadlock theoretically possible). + + If a deadlock is impossible (i.e. the locking rules, as + observed by the kernel, are mathematically correct), the + kernel reports nothing. + + NOTE: this feature can also be enabled for rwlocks, mutexes + and rwsems - in which case all dependencies between these + different locking variants are observed and mapped too, and + the proof of observed correctness is also maintained for an + arbitrary combination of these separate locking variants. + + For more details, see
