lockdep: in_range() fix
Torsten Kaiser wrote: | static inline int in_range(const void *start, const void *addr, const void *end) | { | return addr >= start && addr <= end; | } | This will return true, if addr is in the range of start (including) | to end (including). | | But debug_check_no_locks_freed() seems does: | const void *mem_to = mem_from + mem_len | -> mem_to is the last byte of the freed range, that fits in_range | lock_from = (void *)hlock->instance; | -> first byte of the lock | lock_to = (void *)(hlock->instance + 1); | -> first byte of the next lock, not last byte of the lock that is being checked! | | The test is: | if (!in_range(mem_from, lock_from, mem_to) && | !in_range(mem_from, lock_to, mem_to)) | continue; | So it tests, if the first byte of the lock is in the range that is freed ->OK | And if the first byte of the *next* lock is in the range that is freed | -> Not OK. We can also simplify in_range checks, we need only 2 comparisons, not 4. If the lock is not in memory range, it should be either at the left of range or at the right.
