[RFC] net: ethernet: mtk_wed: annotate RCU release in attach()

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

There are some sparse warnings in wifi, and it seems that
it's actually possible to annotate a function pointer with
__releases(), making the sparse warnings go away. In a way
that also serves as documentation that rcu_read_unlock()
must be called in the attach method, so add that annotation.
