From: Serge E. Hallyn Date: Mon, 26 Apr 2010 10:58:49 +0000 (+0100) Subject: CRED: Holding a spinlock does not imply the holding of RCU read lock X-Git-Tag: v2.6.35-rc1~488^2^2~20 X-Git-Url: http://git.openpandora.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b03df87d119f50715891dcc09e487f6ae5c029f1;p=pandora-kernel.git CRED: Holding a spinlock does not imply the holding of RCU read lock Change the credentials documentation to make it clear that the RCU read lock must be explicitly held when accessing credentials pointers in some other task than current. Holding a spinlock does not implicitly hold the RCU read lock. Signed-off-by: Serge Hallyn Reviewed-by: Paul E.
