Subject: [PATCH 09/11] x86: Enter rcu extended qs after idle notifier call
Date: Fri, 7 Oct 2011 18:22:08 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1318004530-705-10-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1318004530-705-1-git-send-email-fweisbec@gmail.com>
The idle notifier, called by enter_idle(), enters into rcu read
side critical section but at that time we already switched into
the RCU-idle window (rcu_idle_enter() has been called). And it's
illegal to use rcu_read_lock() in that state.
This results in rcu reporting its bad mood:

Fix this by entering rcu extended quiescent state later, just before
the CPU goes to sleep.
