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 also acquired when inserting an epoll fd onto another epoll
67 * fd. We do this so that we walk the epoll tree and ensure that this
68 * insertion does not create a cycle of epoll file descriptors, which
69 * could lead to deadlock. We need a global mutex to prevent two
70 * simultaneous inserts (A into B and B into A) from racing and
71 * constructing a cycle without either insert observing that it is
73 * It is necessary to acquire multiple "ep->mtx"es at once in the
74 * case when one epoll fd is added to another. In this case, we
75 * always acquire the locks in the order of nesting (i.e. after
76 * epoll_ctl(e1, EPOLL_CTL_ADD, e2), e1->mtx will always be acquired
77 * before e2->mtx). Since we disallow cycles of epoll file
78 * descriptors, this ensures that the mutexes are well-ordered. In
79 * order to communicate this nesting to lockdep, when walking a tree
80 * of epoll file descriptors, we use the current recursion depth as
82 * It is possible to drop the "ep->mtx" and to use the global
83 * mutex "epmutex" (together with "ep->lock") to have it working,
84 * but having "ep->mtx" will make the interface more scalable.
85 * Events that require holding "epmutex" are very rare, while for
86 * normal operations the epoll private "ep->mtx" will guarantee
87 * a better scalability.
