[ Upstream commit 9740ca4e95b43b91a4a848694a20d01ba6818f7b ] This patch series adds a new mmap locking API replacing the existing mmap_sem lock and unlocks. Initially the API is just implemente in terms of inlined rwsem calls, so it doesn't provide any new functionality. There are two justifications for the new API: - At first, it provides an easy hooking point to instrument mmap_sem locking latencies independently of any other rwsems. - In the future, it may be a starting point for replacing the rwsem implementation with a different one, such as range locks. This is something that is being explored, even though there is no wide concensus about this possible direction yet. (see https://patchwork.kernel.org/cover/11401483/) This patch (of 12): This change wraps the existing mmap_sem related rwsem calls into a new mmap locking API. There are two justifications for the new API: - At first, it provides an easy hooking point to instrument mmap_sem locking latencies independently of any other rwsems. - In the future, it may be a starting point for replacing the rwsem implementation with a different one, such as range locks.

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.
