I'm looking at some downstream code that is trying to become upstream compliant, and currently that code uses: RCU_LOCKDEP_WARN(!rcu_read_lock_held(), "some message"); It seems like this would be a good use of one of these helper functions, but I'm shocked to see that no upstream code is using them yet. Is there a reason to not use these helpers? /jeff
