sorry for late test, but unfortunately, my case with rhashtalbe still
return EBUSY.
I added some debug code in rhashtable_insert_rehash(), and found:
*future_tbl is null*
fail:
/* Do not fail the insert if someone else did a rehash. */
if (likely(rcu_dereference_raw(tbl->future_tbl))) {
printk("future_tbl is there\n");
return 0;
} else {
printk("future_tbl is null\n");
}
any idea why ?That's presumably because you got a genuine double rehash. Until you post your code we can't really help you. Cheers, -- Email: Herbert Xu [off-list ref] Home Page: http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/ PGP Key: http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/pubkey.txt
