      pipe: fix empty pipe check in pipe_write() · 0dd1e377
      Jan Stancek authored
      
      
      LTP pipeio_1 test is hanging with v5.5-rc2-385-gb8e382a185eb,
      with read side observing empty pipe and sleeping and write
      side running out of space and then sleeping as well. In this
      scenario there are 5 writers and 1 reader.
      
      Problem is that after pipe_write() reacquires pipe lock, it
      re-checks for empty pipe with potentially stale 'head' and
      doesn't wake up read side anymore. pipe->tail can advance
      beyond 'head', because there are multiple writers.
      
      Use pipe->head for empty pipe check after reacquiring lock
      to observe current state.
      
      Testing: With patch, LTP pipeio_1 ran successfully in loop for 1 hour.
               Without patch it hanged within a minute.

      kbuild: clarify the difference between obj-y and obj-m w.r.t. descending · 28f94a44
      Masahiro Yamada authored
      
      
      Kbuild descends into a directory by either 'y' or 'm', but there is an
      important difference.
      
      Kbuild combines the built-in objects into built-in.a in each directory.
      The built-in.a in the directory visited by obj-y is merged into the
      built-in.a in the parent directory. This merge happens recursively
      when Kbuild is ascending back towards the top directory, then built-in
      objects are linked into vmlinux eventually. This works properly only
      when the Makefile specifying obj-y is reachable by the chain of obj-y.
      
      On the other hand, Kbuild does not take built-in.a from the directory
      visited by obj-m. This it, all the objects in that directory are
      supposed to be modular. If Kbuild descends into a directory by obj-m,
      but the Makefile in the sub-directory specifies obj-y, those objects
      are just left orphan.
      
      The current statement "Kbuild only uses this information to decide that
      it needs to visit the directory" is misleading. Clarify the difference.
