/*
* LOCKING:
* There are three level of locking required by epoll :
*
* 1) epmutex (mutex)
- * 2) ep->sem (rw_semaphore)
+ * 2) ep->mtx (mutes)
* 3) ep->lock (rw_lock)
*
* The acquire order is the one listed above, from 1 to 3.
* a spinlock. During the event transfer loop (from kernel to
* user space) we could end up sleeping due a copy_to_user(), so
* we need a lock that will allow us to sleep. This lock is a
- * read-write semaphore (ep->sem). It is acquired on read during
- * the event transfer loop and in write during epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_DEL)
- * and during eventpoll_release_file(). Then we also need a global
- * semaphore to serialize eventpoll_release_file() and ep_free().
- * This semaphore is acquired by ep_free() during the epoll file
+ * mutex (ep->mtx). It is acquired during the event transfer loop,
+ * during epoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_DEL) and during eventpoll_release_file().
+ * Then we also need a global mutex to serialize eventpoll_release_file()
+ * and ep_free().
+ * This mutex is acquired by ep_free() during the epoll file
* cleanup path and it is also acquired by eventpoll_release_file()
* if a file has been pushed inside an epoll set and it is then
* close()d without a previous call toepoll_ctl(EPOLL_CTL_DEL).
- * It is possible to drop the "ep->sem" and to use the global
- * semaphore "epmutex" (together with "ep->lock") to have it working,
- * but having "ep->sem" will make the interface more scalable.
+ * It is possible to drop the "ep->mtx" and to use the global
+ * mutex "epmutex" (together with "ep->lock") to have it working,
+ * but having "ep->mtx" will make the interface more scalable.
* Events that require holding "epmutex" are very rare, while for
- * normal operations the epoll private "ep->sem" will guarantee
- * a greater scalability.
+ * normal operations the epoll private "ep->mtx" will guarantee
+ * a better scalability.
