44 * There are three level of locking required by epoll :
48 * 3) ep->lock (spinlock)
50 * The acquire order is the one listed above, from 1 to 3.
51 * We need a spinlock (ep->lock) because we manipulate objects
52 * from inside the poll callback, that might be triggered from
53 * a wake_up() that in turn might be called from IRQ context.
54 * So we can't sleep inside the poll callback and hence we need
55 * a spinlock. During the event transfer loop (from kernel to
56 * user space) we could end up sleeping due a copy_to_user(), so
57 * we need a lock that will allow us to sleep. This lock is a
58 * mutex (ep->mtx). It is acquired during the event transfer loop,
59 * during epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_DEL) and during eventpoll_release_file().
60 * Then we also need a global mutex to serialize eventpoll_release_file()
62 * This mutex is acquired by ep_free() during the epoll file
63 * cleanup path and it is also acquired by eventpoll_release_file()
64 * if a file has been pushed inside an epoll set and it is then
65 * close()d without a previous call toepoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_DEL).
66 * It is possible to drop the "ep->mtx" and to use the global
67 * mutex "epmutex" (together with "ep->lock") to have it working,
68 * but having "ep->mtx" will make the interface more scalable.
69 * Events that require holding "epmutex" are very rare, while for
70 * normal operations the epoll private "ep->mtx" will guarantee
71 * a better scalability.
