Hello,

I am working on a kernel module and need read/write locks of the bh-kind due to the module needing to process input from a proc-variable. To avoid deadlocks, I need to use trylock to determine if somebody is holding the lock or not. Unfortunately, I cannot find a trylock_bh for the read/write-lock and I am just curious is to why? Does it not make sense, have I missed something in the kernel code or is it because of something else?

Thanks,
Kristian
