46 *
47 * In a function prototype, OVS_ACQUIRES(MUTEX) indicates that the function
48 * must be called without MUTEX acquired and that it returns with MUTEX
49 * acquired. OVS_RELEASES(MUTEX) indicates the reverse. OVS_MUST_HOLD
50 * indicates that the function must be called with MUTEX acquired by the
51 * caller and that the function does not release MUTEX.
52 *
53 * In practice, sparse ignores the MUTEX argument. It need not even be a
54 * valid expression. It is meant to indicate to human readers what mutex is
55 * being acquired.
56 *
57 * Since sparse ignores MUTEX, it need not be an actual mutex. It can be
58 * any construct on which paired acquire and release semantics make sense:
59 * read/write locks, temporary memory allocations, whatever.
60 *
61 * OVS_ACQUIRE, OVS_RELEASE, and OVS_HOLDS are suitable for use within macros,
62 * where there is no function prototype to annotate. */

80 * System V ABI used on i386 GNU/Linux) always use a full-sized "int", even
81 * when a smaller type would suffice.
82 *
83 * In GNU C, "enum __attribute__((packed)) name { ... }" defines 'name' as an
84 * enum compatible with a type that is no bigger than necessary. This is the
85 * intended use of OVS_PACKED_ENUM.
86 *
87 * OVS_PACKED_ENUM is intended for use only as a space optimization, since it
88 * only works with GCC. That means that it must not be used in wire protocols
89 * or otherwise exposed outside of a single process. */
