Using Coccinelle to Detect and Fix Nested Execution Context Violations

Learn how to utilize Coccinelle, a powerful static analysis tool, to identify and resolve nested execution context violations in Linux kernel code. Explore techniques for detecting potential issues related to improper nesting of execution contexts, such as spinlocks, mutexes, and interrupt handlers. Gain insights into writing semantic patches that can automatically find and correct these violations, improving the reliability and performance of kernel code. Discover best practices for implementing Coccinelle-based checks in your development workflow to enhance code quality and prevent common pitfalls associated with nested execution contexts.
