From: Paul E. McKenney Date: Tue, 5 Jan 2010 00:04:01 +0000 (-0800) Subject: rcu: Add debug check for too many rcu_read_unlock() X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cba8244a0f1c277b6b1e48ed6504fa434119e24d;p=linux-beck.git rcu: Add debug check for too many rcu_read_unlock() TREE_PREEMPT_RCU maintains an rcu_read_lock_nesting counter in the task structure, which happens to be a signed int. So this patch adds a check for this counter being negative at the end of __rcu_read_unlock(). This check is under CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING, so can be thought of as being part of lockdep.
