24 * Notes on locking
25 * ----------------
27 * The following locks and mutexes are used by kmemleak:
29 * - kmemleak_lock (rwlock): protects the object_list modifications and
30 * accesses to the object_tree_root. The object_list is the main list
31 * holding the metadata (struct kmemleak_object) for the allocated memory
32 * blocks. The object_tree_root is a red black tree used to look-up
33 * metadata based on a pointer to the corresponding memory block. The
34 * kmemleak_object structures are added to the object_list and
35 * object_tree_root in the create_object() function called from the
36 * kmemleak_alloc() callback and removed in delete_object() called from the
37 * kmemleak_free() callback
38 * - kmemleak_object.lock (spinlock): protects a kmemleak_object. Accesses to
39 * the metadata (e.g. count) are protected by this lock. Note that some
40 * members of this structure may be protected by other means (atomic or
41 * kmemleak_lock). This lock is also held when scanning the corresponding
42 * memory block to avoid the kernel freeing it via the kmemleak_free()
43 * callback. This is less heavyweight than holding a global lock like
44 * kmemleak_lock during scanning
45 * - scan_mutex (mutex): ensures that only one thread may scan the memory for
46 * unreferenced objects at a time. The gray_list contains the objects which
47 * are already referenced or marked as false positives and need to be
48 * scanned. This list is only modified during a scanning episode when the
49 * scan_mutex is held. At the end of a scan, the gray_list is always empty.
50 * Note that the kmemleak_object.use_count is incremented when an object is
51 * added to the gray_list and therefore cannot be freed. This mutex also
52 * prevents multiple users of the "kmemleak" debugfs file together with
53 * modifications to the memory scanning parameters including the scan_thread
54 * pointer
56 * Locks and mutexes are acquired/nested in the following order:
58 * scan_mutex [-> object->lock] -> kmemleak_lock -> other_object->lock (SINGLE_DEPTH_NESTING)
60 * No kmemleak_lock and object->lock nesting is allowed outside scan_mutex
61 * regions.
63 * The kmemleak_object structures have a use_count incremented or decremented
64 * using the get_object()/put_object() functions. When the use_count becomes
65 * 0, this count can no longer be incremented and put_object() schedules the
66 * kmemleak_object freeing via an RCU callback. All calls to the get_object()
67 * function must be protected by rcu_read_lock() to avoid accessing a freed
68 * structure.
