  • 26c369dad   futex: documentation: fix inconsistent description of futex list_op_pending ... Browse Code »

    Strictly speaking list_op_pending points to the 'lock entry', not the
    'lock word' (which is actually at 'offset' from 'lock entry'). We can
    infer this based on reading the code in kernel/futex.c:

    struct robust_list __user *entry, *next_entry, *pending;
    ...
    if (fetch_robust_entry(&pending, &head->list_op_pending, &pip))
    return;
    ...
    if (pending)
    handle_futex_death((void __user *)pending + futex_offset,
    curr, pip);

    Which is also consistent with the rest of the docs on robust futex lists.

  • 4ae0edc21   Fix typos in /Documentation : 'U-Z' ... Browse Code »

    This patch fixes typos in various Documentation txts. The patch addresses some
    +words starting with the letters 'U-Z'.

    Looks like I made it through the alphabet...just in time to start over again
    +too! Maybe I can fit more profound fixes into the next round...? Time will
    +tell. :)
