[ 36/69] ipc,msg: introduce lockless functions to obtain the ipc object

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

 



3.10-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Davidlohr Bueso <davidlohr.bueso@xxxxxx>

commit a5001a0d9768568de5d613c3b3a5b9c7721299da upstream.

Add msq_obtain_object() and msq_obtain_object_check(), which will allow
us to get the ipc object without acquiring the lock.  Just as with
semaphores, these functions are basically wrappers around
ipc_obtain_object*().
