Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/3] Automatic RCU read unlock
Date: Wed, 11 Sep 2019 17:41:59 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20190911164202.31136-1-dgilbert@redhat.com> (raw)

From: "Dr. David Alan Gilbert" <dgilbert@redhat.com>

This patch uses glib's g_auto mechanism to automatically free
rcu_read_lock's at the end of the block.  Given that humans
have a habit of forgetting an error path somewhere it's
best to leave it to the compiler.

In particular:
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1746787
suggests we've forgotten an unlock case somewhere in the
rdma migration code.
