Merge branch 'locking-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull locking updates from Ingo Molnar: "The biggest part of this tree is the new auto-generated atomics API wrappers by Mark Rutland. The primary motivation was to allow instrumentation without uglifying the primary source code. The linecount increase comes from adding the auto-generated files to the Git space as well: include/asm-generic/atomic-instrumented.h | 1689 ++++++++++++++++-- include/asm-generic/atomic-long.h | 1174 ++++++++++--- include/linux/atomic-fallback.h | 2295 +++++++++++++++++++++++++ include/linux/atomic.h | 1241 +------------ I preferred this approach, so that the full call stack of the (already complex) locking APIs is still fully visible in 'git grep'. But if this is excessive we could certainly hide them. There's a separate build-time mechanism to determine whether the headers are out of date (they should never be stale if we do our job right). Anyway, nothing from this should be visible to regular kernel developers. Other changes: - Add support for dynamic keys, which removes a source of false positives in the workqueue code, among other things (Bart Van Assche) - Updates to tools/memory-model (Andrea Parri, Paul E. McKenney) - qspinlock, wake_q and lockdep micro-optimizations (Waiman Long) - misc other updates and enhancements" * 'locking-core-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip: (48 commits) locking/lockdep: Shrink struct lock_class_key locking/lockdep: Add module_param to enable consistency checks lockdep/lib/tests: Test dynamic key registration lockdep/lib/tests: Fix run_tests.sh kernel/workqueue: Use dynamic lockdep keys for workqueues locking/lockdep: Add support for dynamic keys locking/lockdep: Verify whether lock objects are small enough to be used as class keys locking/lockdep: Check data structure consistency locking/lockdep: Reuse lock chains that have been freed locking/lockdep: Fix a comment in add_chain_cache() locking/lockdep: Introduce lockdep_next_lockchain() and lock_chain_count() locking/lockdep: Reuse list entries that are no longer in use locking/lockdep: Free lock classes that are no longer in use locking/lockdep: Update two outdated comments locking/lockdep: Make it easy to detect whether or not inside a selftest locking/lockdep: Split lockdep_free_key_range() and lockdep_reset_lock() locking/lockdep: Initialize the locks_before and locks_after lists earlier locking/lockdep: Make zap_class() remove all matching lock order entries locking/lockdep: Reorder struct lock_class members locking/lockdep: Avoid that add_chain_cache() adds an invalid chain to the cache ...
