From b835996f628eadb55c5fb222ba46fe9395bf73c7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dipankar Sarma Date: Fri, 9 Sep 2005 13:04:14 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] files: lock-free fd look-up With the use of RCU in files structure, the look-up of files using fds can now be lock-free. The lookup is protected by rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock(). This patch changes the readers to use lock-free lookup.
