Subject: [RFC 0/8] Move locking primitives into kernel/locking/
Hi all,
During Kernel Summit Dave mentioned that there wasn't a clear maintainer for
locking bits.
To remedy this Ingo suggested gathering all the various locking primitives and
lockdep into a single place: kernel/locking/.
I would further like to propose a MAINTAINERS entry like:
LOCKING
M: Ingo Molnar <mingo@...hat.com>
M: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@...radead.org>
M: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@...hat.com>
M: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@...ux.vnet.ibm.com>
M: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@...ux-foundation.org>
T: git git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip.git locking/core
S: Maintained
F: kernel/locking/
Because for most 'fun' locking discussions we usually end up with at least
those people anyway :-)
Comments?
