[PATCH RT 3/9][RFC] [PATCH 3/9] lglock/rt: Use non-rt for_each_cpu() in -rt code

From: Steven Rostedt
Date: Thu Mar 01 2012 - 14:06:06 EST


Currently the RT version of the lglocks() does a for_each_online_cpu()
in the name##_global_lock_online() functions. Non-rt uses its own
mask for this, and for good reason.

A task may grab a *_global_lock_online(), and in the mean time, one
of the CPUs goes offline. Now when that task does a *_global_unlock_online()
it releases all the locks *except* the one that went offline.

Now if that CPU were to come back on line, its lock is now owned by a
task that never released it when it should have.

This causes all sorts of fun errors. Like owners of a lock no longer
existing, or sleeping on IO, waiting to be woken up by a task that
happens to be blocked on the lock it never released.

Convert the RT versions to use the lglock specific cpumasks. As once
a CPU comes on line, the mask is set, and never cleared even when the
CPU goes offline. The locks for that CPU will still be taken and released.
