Hi!
Without this, the following trace may be observed when a volume-break callback is received:
INFO: trying to register non-static key. the code is fine but needs lockdep annotation.
I'm sure this fixes the warning...
diff --git a/fs/afs/callback.c b/fs/afs/callback.c index 5f261fbf2182..4ad701250299 100644 --- a/fs/afs/callback.c +++ b/fs/afs/callback.c @@ -276,9 +276,9 @@ static void afs_break_one_callback(struct afs_server *server, struct afs_super_info *as = AFS_FS_S(cbi->sb); struct afs_volume *volume = as->volume;
write_lock(&volume->cb_break_lock);
write_lock(&volume->cb_v_break_lock); volume->cb_v_break++;
write_unlock(&volume->cb_break_lock);
write_unlock(&volume->cb_v_break_lock);
But this is the only use of the lock.
Which is strange: we have read/write lock, but we only use the write side. Readers don't take the lock, so it does not offer any protection for them.
Is that correct? Does this need to be rwlock, or would plain spinlock be enough? atomic_t?
(Problem exists in the mainline, nothing stable specific here).
Best regards, Pavel
