From 84eea842886ac35020be6043e04748ed22014359 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Menage Date: Fri, 25 Jul 2008 01:47:00 -0700 Subject: cgroups: misc cleanups to write_string patchset This patch contains cleanups suggested by reviewers for the recent write_string() patchset: - pair cgroup_lock_live_group() with cgroup_unlock() in cgroup.c for clarity, rather than directly unlocking cgroup_mutex. - make the return type of cgroup_lock_live_group() a bool - use a #define'd constant for the local buffer size in read/write functions Signed-off-by: Paul Menage Cc: Paul Jackson Cc: Pavel Emelyanov Cc: Balbir Singh Acked-by: Serge Hallyn Cc: KAMEZAWA Hiroyuki Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds --- kernel/cgroup.c | 21 ++++++++++++--------- 1 file changed, 12 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) (limited to 'kernel') diff --git a/kernel/cgroup.c b/kernel/cgroup.c index 0120b5d67a7..a14122ecaa5 100644 --- a/kernel/cgroup.c +++ b/kernel/cgroup.c @@ -1329,10 +1329,10 @@ enum cgroup_filetype { * cgroup_lock_live_group - take cgroup_mutex and check that cgrp is alive. * @cgrp: the cgroup to be checked for liveness * - * Returns true (with lock held) on success, or false (with no lock - * held) on failure. + * On success, returns true; the lock should be later released with + * cgroup_unlock().
