A simple but odd single-process litmus test acquires and immediately releases a lock, then calls spin_is_locked(). LKMM acts if it was a deadlock due to an assumption that spin_is_locked() will follow a spin_lock() or some other process's spin_unlock(). This litmus test manages to violate this assumption because the spin_is_locked() follows the same process's spin_unlock(). This series fixes this bug, reorganizes and optimizes the lock.cat model, and updates documentation. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQJHBAABCgAxFiEEbK7UrM+RBIrCoViJnr8S83LZ+4wFAmaRwSUTHHBhdWxtY2tA a2VybmVsLm9yZwAKCRCevxLzctn7jNmcD/0dhWCkytKMLwVke6oLP++HTFK/Uzrb XsXkq5t0Y+xzf7KKca9XuqEMRnaenLM07Swx0ujn2fH7FrXCNlzHD6R4T2e8r+L5 9TVa1ewRfpjH8tM6YLsMbiH4yRah47F9p6CulRHJiHtyU2pLgThIF0/KrhiYKn2P aBF4zclt0TJkTgJDaoJ45z6YTWNFMv+DopRwWT9vm0CNS4jaxHrn8CaBtiv1arWe 9CMArXtPS6eJjbZ9RPLSVlNUufLD7QnyPXRPjd7hwBHReEgcfvpAYKfsAZanhSqv vTp9PRQlu1j9pcjrSCzZ2baBXd0XhuX2wtjNBZXcb2yzIj6V2t5rADKKEG7IONTj eV0ZpMm5bF6lUZBtr1YowgNPwKktdqIVavXk1Sl/fiUs/B8thKZI/pekOMLwq5An SdcCO2m6tY5fYvsvIpfRExvx3TGrRHw+64C/jZrGPhLL6d87tTr0uuyZe1XDxv2+ yGkDuKHUGg7lAXbd6sPvPLOej6pOFbb43qUa7AwBtXBrUs9nF1AuegTM8ux+5eCe qbA6GrvPyeSXOwsy0XD83oOQ4o93f0GdpMnIgQNK32uaEvQJf1MenTcTjXD8RfGv FqxSqhSGNQSXjmBCRFHujR2lR7aWSEUWTEdV+hnSd8O0q4IG2LMwK+TzbtJXJTl8 KZgRYz7lne7sQw== =kUWy -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Merge tag 'lkmm.2024.07.12a' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu Pull memory model updates from Paul McKenney: "lkmm: Fix corner-case locking bug and improve documentation A simple but odd single-process litmus test acquires and immediately releases a lock, then calls spin_is_locked().

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.
