Subject: [PATCH net-next] ieee802154: hwsim: fix rcu handling
Date: Tue,  7 Aug 2018 19:32:49 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180807233249.28572-1-aring@mojatatu.com> (raw)

This patch adds missing rcu_assign_pointer()/rcu_dereference() to used rcu
pointers. There was already a previous commit c5d99d2b35da ("ieee802154:
hwsim: fix rcu address annotation"), but there was more which was
pointed out on my side by using newest sparse version.

After I installed finally the newest sparse version I found more what kbuild
was pointed out.

I hope I did it right, not sure if I really need rcu functionality in these
case because protection by mutex but I make sparse silent.
At some places the resource isn't a shared resource at this moment.

Anyway in my case I want to use this driver to create easily multi-hop
scenarios, if somebody report things (or I hit it) which smells like some
memory in this area - I will try and help to fix it.

Newest sparse version from git is happy now and I hope kbuild bot as well.

I tested this patch with RPOVE_RCU enabled and tried to update these settings
while heavy loading in rcu protected xmit hotpath is occured, without any
issues so far.

Sorry again.
