Just couldn’t help laughing at the thought of this one (at the risk of being accused of thinking about nothing else other than … you’ll know what!)
Some years ago, when cpu-hotplug was first introduced, the way to postpone a cpu-hotplug operation while operating in some critical section was by using the API lock_cpu_hotplug().
Some years ago, when Kaun Banega Crorepati (KBC) was first launched with Mr. Amitabh Bacchan as the host, the famous catchline was “lock kiya jaaye” ( Let’s lock it)
A few months ago, after being fed up with the ruckus created by the global cpu-hotplug lock, Andrew Morton suggested that we kill lock_cpu_hotplug() and use freeze_processes() instead. That’s what I have been working on for the past few months.
A few months ago, when KBC version 3 was launched with Shah Rukh Khan as the host, the catchline became - “Mr Computer, Freeze kiya jaaye” (Lets freeze it)
Am I the only one finding this correlation funny?!
