[merged] ipc-rename-ipcctl_pre_down_nolock.patch removed from -mm tree

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

 



The patch titled
     Subject: ipc: rename ipcctl_pre_down_nolock()
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     ipc-rename-ipcctl_pre_down_nolock.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree

------------------------------------------------------
From: Manfred Spraul <manfred@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: ipc: rename ipcctl_pre_down_nolock()

Both the comment and the name of ipcctl_pre_down_nolock() are misleading:
The function must be called while holdling the rw semaphore.

Therefore the patch renames the function to ipcctl_obtain_check(): This
name matches the other names used in util.c:

- "obtain" function look up a pointer in the idr, without
  acquiring the object lock.
- The caller is responsible for locking.
- _check means that the sequence number is checked.
