The mutex protects against the list of transports changing while a controller is being created, but using a plain old mutex means that it also serializes controller creation. This unnecessarily slows down creating multiple controllers - for example for the RDMA transport, creating a controller involves establishing one connection for every IO queue, which involves even more network/software round trips, so the delay can become significant. The simplest way to fix this is to change the mutex to an rwsem and only hold it for writing when the list is being mutated. Since we can take the rwsem for reading while creating a controller, we can create multiple controllers in parallel.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
