There are several global spinlocks in the kernel (kernel_flag,
io_request_lock, global_irq_lock, etc).
Is there somewhere an overview about them, and which objects they protect?
Is there a list in which order I must acquire those spinlocks?
Regards,
Manfred
P.S.: I found no informations about that, neither in dejanews, nor in a
searcheable
linux-kernel archive, nor in altavista. Is there another place where I can
find such information?
