But # instead of the '_and_lock()' naming it uses '_or_lock()'. # # And instead of returning true in case it took the lock, it returns true # if it didn't* take the lock. # # Now, arguably the reflock code is quite logical: it really is a "either # decrement _or_ lock" kind of situation - and the return value is about # whether the operation succeeded without any special care needed. # # So despite the similarities, the differences do make some sense, and # maybe it's not worth trying to unify the different conditional locking # primitives in this area. # # But while looking at this all, it did become obvious that the # 'lockref_get_or_lock()' function hasn't actually had any users for # almost a decade. # # The only user it ever had was the shortlived 'd_rcu_to_refcount()' # function, and it got removed and replaced with 'lockref_get_not_dead()' # back in 2013 in commits 0d98439ea3c6 ("vfs: use lockred 'dead' flag to # mark unrecoverably dead dentries") and e5c832d55588 ("vfs: fix dentry # RCU to refcounting possibly sleeping dput()") # # In fact, that single use was removed less than a week after the whole # function was introduced in commit b3abd80250c1 ("lockref: add # 'lockref_get_or_lock() helper") so this function has been around for a # decade, but only had a user for six days. # # Let's just put this mis-designed and unused function out of its misery. # # We can think about the naming and semantic oddities of the remaining # 'lockref_put_or_lock()' later, but at least that function has users. # # And while the naming is different and the return value doesn't match, # that function matches the whole '{atomic,refcount}_dec_and_test()' # pattern much better (ie the magic happens when the count goes down to # zero, not when it is incremented from zero). # # Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> # < /opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-11.1.0-nolibc/mips-linux/bin/mips-linux-gcc --version # < /opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-11.1.0-nolibc/mips-linux/bin/mips-linux-ld --version # < git log --format=%s --max-count=1 b8d5109f50969ead9d49c3e8bd78ec1f82e548e3 # < make -s -j 32 ARCH=mips O=/kisskb/build/linus_micro32r2_defconfig_mips-gcc11 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-11.1.0-nolibc/mips-linux/bin/mips-linux- micro32r2_defconfig ./.config.micro32r2_defconfig:95:warning: override: CPU_BIG_ENDIAN changes choice state .config:94:warning: override: CPU_BIG_ENDIAN changes choice state # < make -s -j 32 ARCH=mips O=/kisskb/build/linus_micro32r2_defconfig_mips-gcc11 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-11.1.0-nolibc/mips-linux/bin/mips-linux- help # make -s -j 32 ARCH=mips O=/kisskb/build/linus_micro32r2_defconfig_mips-gcc11 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-11.1.0-nolibc/mips-linux/bin/mips-linux- olddefconfig # make -s -j 32 ARCH=mips O=/kisskb/build/linus_micro32r2_defconfig_mips-gcc11 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-11.1.0-nolibc/mips-linux/bin/mips-linux- /kisskb/src/arch/mips/boot/dts/img/boston.dts:128.19-178.5: Warning (pci_device_reg): /pci@14000000/pci2_root@0,0,0: PCI unit address format error, expected "0,0" {standard input}: Assembler messages: {standard input}:1295: Error: branch to a symbol in another ISA mode make[3]: * [/kisskb/src/scripts/Makefile.build:249: arch/mips/kernel/smp-cps.o] Error 1 make[3]: * Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make[2]: * [/kisskb/src/scripts/Makefile.build:466: arch/mips/kernel] Error 2 make[2]: * Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make[1]: * [/kisskb/src/Makefile:1843: arch/mips] Error 2 make[1]: * Waiting for unfinished jobs.... make: *** [Makefile:219: __sub-make] Error 2 Command 'make -s -j 32 ARCH=mips O=/kisskb/build/linus_micro32r2_defconfig_mips-gcc11 CROSS_COMPILE=/opt/cross/kisskb/korg/gcc-11.1.0-nolibc/mips-linux/bin/mips-linux- ' returned non-zero exit status 2 # rm -rf /kisskb/build/linus_micro32r2_defconfig_mips-gcc11 # Build took: 0:01:41.358989
