io_uring maintains two hash lists of inflight requests: 1) ctx->cancel_table_locked. This is used when the caller has the ctx->uring_lock held already. This is only an issue side parameter, as removal or task_work will always have it held. 2) ctx->cancel_table. This is used when the issuer does NOT have the ctx->uring_lock held, and relies on the table spinlocks for access. However, it's pretty trivial to simply grab the lock in the one spot where we care about it, for insertion. With that, we can kill the unlocked table (and get rid of the _locked postfix for the other one). Signed-off-by: Jens Axboe <axboe@kernel.dk>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
