[PATCH 0/5] Implement bitlock map allocator

Show all headers | View raw

Currently, bit-based lock e.g. bit_spin_lock cannot use the lock
correctness validator using lockdep. However, it would be useful if
the validator supports for even bit-based lock as well.

Therefore, this patch provides interface for allocation and freeing
lockdep_map for bit-based lock so that the bit-based lock can also use
the lock correctness validator with the lockdep_map, allocated for each
bit address.

This patch can be applied to any bit_spin_lock user except slab
allocator where I am not sure if using kmalloc is safe. Anyway I chose
two example to apply bitlock map allocator, zram and buffer head.
And applied it and included it in this patch set.

Byungchul Park (5):
  lockdep: Implement bitlock map allocator
  lockdep: Apply bitlock to bit_spin_lock
  lockdep: Apply bit_spin_lock lockdep to zram
  fs/buffer.c: Remove trailing white space
  lockdep: Apply bit_spin_lock lockdep to BH_Uptodate_Lock
