2010-05-03net: rcu fixesEric Dumazet
Add hlist_for_each_entry_rcu_bh() and hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu_bh() macros, and use them in ipv6_get_ifaddr(), if6_get_first() and if6_get_next() to fix lockdeps warnings.

2010-03-20IPv6: convert addrconf hash list to RCUstephen hemminger
Convert from reader/writer lock to RCU and spinlock for addrconf hash list. Adds an additional helper macro for hlist_for_each_entry_continue_rcu to handle the continue case. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@vyatta.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2010-02-25rcu: Disable lockdep checking in RCU list-traversal primitivesPaul E. McKenney
The theory is that use of bare rcu_dereference() is more prone to error than use of the RCU list-traversal primitives. Therefore, disable lockdep RCU read-side critical-section checking in these primitives for the time being. Once all of the rcu_dereference() uses have been dealt with, it may be time to re-enable lockdep checking for the RCU list-traversal primitives. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

2009-04-14rculist.h: introduce list_entry_rcu() and list_first_entry_rcu()Jiri Pirko
I've run into the situation where I need to use list_first_entry with rcu-guarded list. This patch introduces this. Also simplify list_for_each_entry_rcu() to use new list_entry_rcu() instead of list_entry(). Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko <jpirko@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: Paul E.

2008-05-19rcu: split list.h and move rcu-protected lists into rculist.hFranck Bui-Huu
Move rcu-protected lists from list.h into a new header file rculist.h. This is done because list are a very used primitive structure all over the kernel and it's currently impossible to include other header files in this list.h without creating some circular dependencies. For example, list.h implements rcu-protected list and uses rcu_dereference() without including rcupdate.h. It actually compiles because users of rcu_dereference() are macros. Others RCU functions could be used too but aren't probably because of this. Therefore this patch creates rculist.h which includes rcupdates without to many changes/troubles.
