The tool to use it is called 'sparse'. You can get it from its git repository (you can view it here: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/sparse.git;a=summary ). Or you can download daily tarball snapshots of it from: http://www.codemonkey.org.uk/projects/git-snapshots/sparse/ As far as explaining and using it, you'll just need to look at kernel source code and this email from Linus: http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-sparse&m=109865107109043&w=2 > Thanks and regards, > Rasmit. > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Randy.Dunlap [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Sent: Thursday, May 04, 2006 11:23 AM > > To: Rasmit Ranjan (WT01 - Semiconductors & Consumer Electronics) > > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; > > [EMAIL PROTECTED]; [email protected] > > Subject: Re: [linux-pm] __releases and __acquires macros in compiler.h > > > > On Thu, 4 May 2006 11:13:20 +0530 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > > > > Hi all, > > > I came across two macros __releases and __acquires defined in > > > compiler.h. > > > Can anyone please tell me the exact use of these two macros. > > > > They are for the sparse static checker to count locks > > released and acquired, to make sure that they are balanced. > > > > --- > > ~Randy > > > > > The information contained in this electronic message and any attachments to > this message are intended for the exclusive use of the addressee(s) and may > contain proprietary, confidential or privileged information.
