Subject: Re: [PATCH] slab: fix kmalloc_nolock() context check for PREEMPT_RT
Date: Fri, 19 Dec 2025 19:21:43 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20251219135143.7337-1-swarajgaikwad1925@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <aUVTJyd74OoCtSyN@redhat.com>
I agree that we can simplify this. I think !preemptible() would be
the most descriptive choice here, as it directly expresses the
constraint, we cannot take a sleeping lock when preemption is
disabled.
The updated check would be:
if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT) && !preemptible())
I'll send a v2 with this change unless there are objections.
