From b4c5bf353452c49edd860a67845627c9a8f32638 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Fri, 28 Feb 2014 16:11:28 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] documentation: Record rcu_dereference() value mishandling Recent LKML discussings (see http://lwn.net/Articles/586838/ and http://lwn.net/Articles/588300/ for the LWN writeups) brought out some ways of misusing the return value from rcu_dereference() that are not necessarily completely intuitive. This commit therefore documents what can and cannot safely be done with these values. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney Reviewed-by: Josh Triplett --- Reading git-format-patch failed
