[PATCH 5.5 24/44] RDMA/cma: Teach lockdep about the order of rtnl and lock

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

 



From: Jason Gunthorpe <jgg@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 32ac9e4399b12d3e54d312a0e0e30ed5cd19bd4e upstream.

This lock ordering only happens when bonding is enabled and a certain
bonding related event fires. However, since it can happen this is a global
restriction on lock ordering.

Teach lockdep about the order directly and unconditionally so bugs here
are found quickly.
