From 613655fa39ff6957754fa8ceb8559980920eb8ee Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnd Bergmann Date: Wed, 2 Jun 2010 14:28:52 +0200 Subject: drivers: autoconvert trivial BKL users to private mutex All these files use the big kernel lock in a trivial way to serialize their private file operations, typically resulting from an earlier semi-automatic pushdown from VFS. None of these drivers appears to want to lock against other code, and they all use the BKL as the top-level lock in their file operations, meaning that there is no lock-order inversion problem. Consequently, we can remove the BKL completely, replacing it with a per-file mutex in every case. Using a scripted approach means we can avoid typos. These drivers do not seem to be under active maintainance from my brief investigation. Apologies to those maintainers that I have missed. file=$1 name=$2 if grep -q lock_kernel ${file} ; then if grep -q 'include.*linux.mutex.h' ${file} ; then sed -i '/include.*/d' ${file} else sed -i 's/include.*.*$/include /g' ${file} fi sed -i ${file} \ -e "/^#include.*linux.mutex.h/,$ { 1,/^\(static\|int\|long\)/ { /^\(static\|int\|long\)/istatic DEFINE_MUTEX(${name}_mutex); } }" \ -e "s/\(un\)*lock_kernel\>[ ]*()/mutex_\1lock(\&${name}_mutex)/g" \ -e '/[ ]*cycle_kernel_lock();/d' else sed -i -e '/include.*\/d' ${file} \ -e '/cycle_kernel_lock()/d' fi Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann --- drivers/rtc/rtc-m41t80.c | 13 +++++++------ 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) (limited to 'drivers/rtc/rtc-m41t80.c') diff --git a/drivers/rtc/rtc-m41t80.c b/drivers/rtc/rtc-m41t80.c index d60557cae8ef..512dca16a42c 100644 --- a/drivers/rtc/rtc-m41t80.c +++ b/drivers/rtc/rtc-m41t80.c @@ -20,7 +20,7 @@ #include #include #include -#include +#include #include #ifdef CONFIG_RTC_DRV_M41T80_WDT #include @@ -68,6 +68,7 @@ #define DRV_VERSION "0.05" +static DEFINE_MUTEX(m41t80_rtc_mutex); static const struct i2c_device_id m41t80_id[] = { { "m41t62", M41T80_FEATURE_SQ | M41T80_FEATURE_SQ_ALT }, { "m41t65", M41T80_FEATURE_HT | M41T80_FEATURE_WD }, @@ -677,9 +678,9 @@ static long wdt_unlocked_ioctl(struct file *file, unsigned int cmd, { int ret; - lock_kernel(); + mutex_lock(&m41t80_rtc_mutex); ret = wdt_ioctl(file, cmd, arg); - unlock_kernel(); + mutex_unlock(&m41t80_rtc_mutex); return ret; } @@ -693,16 +694,16 @@ static long wdt_unlocked_ioctl(struct file *file, unsigned int cmd, static int wdt_open(struct inode *inode, struct file *file) { if (MINOR(inode->i_rdev) == WATCHDOG_MINOR) { - lock_kernel(); + mutex_lock(&m41t80_rtc_mutex); if (test_and_set_bit(0, &wdt_is_open)) { - unlock_kernel(); + mutex_unlock(&m41t80_rtc_mutex); return -EBUSY; } /* * Activate */ wdt_is_open = 1; - unlock_kernel(); + mutex_unlock(&m41t80_rtc_mutex); return nonseekable_open(inode, file); } return -ENODEV; -- cgit v1.2.3-59-g8ed1b
