# Commit 5a9899ddc42040e139233a6b1f0f65f3b65eda6d # Date 2015-06-15 13:23:34 +0200 # Author David Vrabel # Committer Jan Beulich gnttab: introduce maptrack lock Split grant table lock into two separate locks. One to protect maptrack free list (maptrack_lock) and one for everything else (lock). Based on a patch originally by Matt Wilson .
