From 1a539a87280b3032fd12bc93a4a82f1d8aa97ca8 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Fri, 8 Jun 2007 13:46:58 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] rt-mutex: fix chain walk early wakeup bug Alexey Kuznetsov found some problems in the pi-futex code. One of the root causes is: When a wakeup happens, we do not to stop the chain walk so we follow a not longer relevant locking chain. Drop out when this happens.
