Jakub reported that: static struct net_device *rtl8139_init_board(struct pci_dev *pdev) { ... u64_stats_init(&tp->rx_stats.syncp); u64_stats_init(&tp->tx_stats.syncp); ... } results in lockdep getting confused between the RX and TX stats lock. This is because u64_stats_init() is an inline calling seqcount_init(), which is a macro using a static variable to generate a lockdep class. By wrapping that in an inline, we negate the effect of the macro and fold the static key variable, hence the confusion. Fix by also making u64_stats_init() a macro for the case where it matters, leaving the other case an inline for argument validation etc. Reported-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> Debugged-by: "Ahmed S.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
