From 428e6ce023c5890cfecc8ad10335da3f28dbf893 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pavel Emelianov Date: Tue, 8 May 2007 00:29:10 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Lockdep treats down_write_trylock like regular down_write This causes constructions like down_write(&mm1->mmap_sem); if (down_write_trylock(&mm2->mmap_sem)) { ... up_write(&mm2->mmap_sem); } up_write(&mm1->mmap_sem); generate a lockdep warning about circular locking dependence. Call rwsem_acquire() with trylock set to 1.
