Perhaps change this to: if (!debug_locks || chwalk == RT_MUTEX_FULL_CHAINWALK || !act_waiter) To cut down on the verbosity, we could add helper macros: #define chwalk_is_full(chwalk) ((chwalk) == RT_MUTEX_FULL_CHAINWALK) #define chwalk_is_min(chwalk) ((chwalk) == RT_MUTEX_MIN_CHAINWALK) And then the above would simply be: if (!debug_locks || chwalk_is_full(chwalk) || !act_waiter) And put this throughout. -- Steve -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [email protected] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
