From a6f8dbc654c3dddc5ac98cf59a88447a90e99ece Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Arnd Bergmann Date: Mon, 4 Oct 2010 21:18:23 +0200 Subject: sunrpc: remove the big kernel lock The sunrpc cache_ioctl function does not need the big kernel lock because it uses its own queue_lock already. rpc_pipe_ioctl apparently should be using i_lock like the other operations on the pipe file descriptor do.

With all the patches we have queued in the BKL removal tree, only a few dozen modules are left that actually rely on the BKL, and even there are lots of low-hanging fruit. We need to decide what to do about them, this patch illustrates one of the options: Every user of the BKL is marked as 'depends on BKL' in Kconfig, and the CONFIG_BKL becomes a user-visible option. If it gets disabled, no BKL using module can be built any more and the BKL code itself is compiled out. The one exception is file locking, which is practically always enabled and does a 'select BKL' instead. This effectively forces CONFIG_BKL to be enabled until we have solved the fs/lockd mess and can apply the patch that removes the BKL from fs/locks.c.
