From 7cf7db8df0b78076eafa4ead47559344ca7b7a43 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Thu, 10 Dec 2009 00:53:21 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] signals: Fix more rcu assumptions 1) Remove the misleading comment in __sigqueue_alloc() which claims that holding a spinlock is equivalent to rcu_read_lock(). 2) Add a rcu_read_lock/unlock around the __task_cred() access in __sigqueue_alloc() This needs to be revisited to remove the remaining users of read_lock(&tasklist_lock) but that's outside the scope of this patch.
