Sebastian Andrzej Siewior says: ==================== ppp: Replace per-CPU recursion counter with lock-owner field This is another approach to avoid relying on local_bh_disable() for locking of per-CPU in ppp. I redid it with the per-CPU lock and local_lock_nested_bh() as discussed in v1. The xmit_recursion counter has been removed since it served the same purpose as the owner field. Both were updated and checked. The xmit_recursion looks like a counter in ppp_channel_push() but at this point, the counter should always be 0 so it always serves as a boolean. Therefore I removed it. I do admit that this looks easier to review. v2 https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250710162403.402739-1-bigeasy@linutronix.de/ v1 https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250627105013.Qtv54bEk@linutronix.de/ ==================== Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20250715150806.700536-1-bigeasy@linutronix.de Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com>
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.
