start_kernel 开始后的第一个C 函数.
include/linux/smp_lock.h中有宏定义:
#ifdef CONFIG_LOCK_KERNEL
#define kernel_locked() (current->lock_depth >= 0)
extern void __lockfunc lock_kernel(void) __acquires(kernel_lock);
extern void __lockfunc unlock_kernel(void) __releases(kernel_lock);
#else
#define lock_kernel() do { } while(0)
#define unlock_kernel() do { } while(0)
#define release_kernel_lock(task) do { } while(0)
#define reacquire_kernel_lock(task) 0
#define kernel_locked() 1
#endif /* CONFIG_LOCK_KERNEL */
lock_kernel 的真实身份还需要CONFIG_LOCK_KERNEL 确定.
内核使用了arch/arm/configs/s3c2410_defconfig作为默认的配置文件,Code maturity level options 选项下没有设置
CONFIG_LOCK_KERNEL 项.所以在这里lock_kernel应该就是do { } while(0) 的空操作.
搞清楚了,但还是要看一下CONFIG_LOCK_KERNEL 定义的情况下lock_kernel的情况:lib/kernel_lock.c中有定义
也是要根据宏的定义具体判断使用哪个实现.
CONFIG_PREEMPT_BKL 判断使用'big kernel semaphore还是'big kernel lock;
即使使用 'big kernel lock CONFIG_PREEMPT(竞态) 宏不同lock_kernel实现也不同;
2410这种单处理器不会有多个cpu竞争的情况,所以不需要大内核锁/信号量来解决资源竞争问题...
