bf6a41db7726e6 Daniel Baluta 2011-01-30 1121 * mechanism. It is called by the stored file descriptors when they
7699acd1341c63 Davide Libenzi 2007-05-10 1122 * have events to report.

a6c67fee9cf095 Randy Dunlap 2021-03-01 1124 * This callback takes a read lock in order not to contend with concurrent
a6c67fee9cf095 Randy Dunlap 2021-03-01 1125 * events from another file descriptor, thus all modifications to ->rdllist
a218cc4914209a Roman Penyaev 2019-03-07 1126 * or ->ovflist are lockless. Read lock is paired with the write lock from
a218cc4914209a Roman Penyaev 2019-03-07 1127 * ep_scan_ready_list(), which stops all list modifications and guarantees
a218cc4914209a Roman Penyaev 2019-03-07 1128 * that lists state is seen correctly.

a218cc4914209a Roman Penyaev 2019-03-07 1131 * concurrently for the same @epi from different CPUs if poll table was inited
a218cc4914209a Roman Penyaev 2019-03-07 1132 * with several wait queues entries. Plural wakeup from different CPUs of a
a218cc4914209a Roman Penyaev 2019-03-07 1133 * single wait queue is serialized by wq.lock, but the case when multiple wait

a218cc4914209a Roman Penyaev 2019-03-07 1135 * cmpxchg() operation.
