From adac1665234dd966990af846eccd20b7f4923279 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ingo Molnar Date: Wed, 25 Jan 2006 19:50:12 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] rcu_torture_lock deadlock fix rcu_torture_lock is used in a softirq-unsafe manner, but it is also taken by rcu_torture_cb(), which may execute in softirq-context, resulting in potential deadlocks. The fix is to acquire rcu_torture_lock in a softirq-safe manner. With this fix applied, the rcu-torture code passes validation. Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar Acked-by: Paul E.
