We want to only take the BKL on crap drivers, but to know whether we have a crap driver we first need to look it up. Split this shuffle out from the main BKL-disabling patch, for more clarity. Historical aside: When the kernel-wide BKL was removed, it was replaced by drm_global_mutex within the scope of the drm subsystem hence why these two things are (almost) interchangeable as concepts here. Since the minors are refcounted drm_minor_acquire is purely internal and this does not have a driver visible effect. v2: Push the locking even further into drm_open(), suggested by Chris. This gives us more symmetry with drm_release(), and maybe a futuer avenue where we make drm_global_mutex locking (partially) opt-in like with drm_release_noglobal(). v3: - Actually push this stuff correctly, don't unlock twice (Chris) - Fix typo on commit message, plus explain why BKL = drm_global_mutex (Sam) Cc: Sam Ravnborg <sam@ravnborg.org> Cc: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Tested-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Acked-by: Thomas Zimmermann <tzimmermann@suse.de> Reviewed-by: Chris Wilson <chris@chris-wilson.co.uk> Signed-off-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter@intel.com> Link: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/msgid/20200204150146.2006481-5-daniel.vetter@ffwll.ch |

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 Restructured Text 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.
