read_lock migrate_disable pushdown to rt_read_lock
pushdown of migrate_disable/enable from read_*lock* to the rt_read_*lock*
api level
general mapping to mutexes:
read_*lock*
`-> rt_read_*lock*
`-> __spin_lock (the sleeping spin locks)
`-> rt_mutex
The real read_lock* mapping:
read_lock_irqsave -.
read_lock_irq `-> rt_read_lock_irqsave()
`->read_lock ---------. \
read_lock_bh ------+ \
`--> rt_read_lock()
if (rt_mutex_owner(lock) != current){
`-> __rt_spin_lock()
rt_spin_lock_fastlock()
`->rt_mutex_cmpxchg()
migrate_disable()
}
rwlock->read_depth++;
read_trylock mapping:
read_trylock
`-> rt_read_trylock
if (rt_mutex_owner(lock) != current){
`-> rt_mutex_trylock()
rt_mutex_fasttrylock()
rt_mutex_cmpxchg()
migrate_disable()
}
rwlock->read_depth++;
read_unlock* mapping:
read_unlock_bh --------+
read_unlock_irq -------+
read_unlock_irqrestore +
read_unlock -----------+
`-> rt_read_unlock()
if(--rwlock->read_depth==0){
`-> __rt_spin_unlock()
rt_spin_lock_fastunlock()
`-> rt_mutex_cmpxchg()
migrate_disable()
}
So calls to migrate_disable/enable() are better placed at the rt_read_*
level of lock/trylock/unlock as all of the read_*lock* API has this as a
common path. In the rt_read* API of lock/trylock/unlock the nesting level
is already being recorded in rwlock->read_depth, so we can push down the
migrate disable/enable to that level and condition it on the read_depth
going from 0 to 1 -> migrate_disable and 1 to 0 -> migrate_enable. This
eliminates the recursive calls that were needed when migrate_disable/enable
was done at the read_*lock* level.
The approach to read_*_bh also eliminates the concerns raised with the
regards to api inbalances (read_lock_bh -> read_unlock+local_bh_enable)
