From 37a9d912b24f96a0591773e6e6c3642991ae5a70 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michel Lespinasse Date: Thu, 10 Mar 2011 18:48:51 -0800 Subject: futex: Sanitize cmpxchg_futex_value_locked API The cmpxchg_futex_value_locked API was funny in that it returned either the original, user-exposed futex value OR an error code such as -EFAULT. This was confusing at best, and could be a source of livelocks in places that retry the cmpxchg_futex_value_locked after trying to fix the issue by running fault_in_user_writeable(). This change makes the cmpxchg_futex_value_locked API more similar to the get_futex_value_locked one, returning an error code and updating the original value through a reference argument.
