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) Tested-by: Carsten Emde <C.Emde@osadl.org> Signed-off-by: Nicholas Mc Guire <der.herr@hofr.at> Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>
