Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/4] Review comments, cleanups, and preemptable synchronize_rcu() fixes
Date: Sun, 13 Sep 2009 09:14:38 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090913161438.GA32550@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
This patchset provides updates to TREE_PREEMPT_RCU as follows:
1. Update the TREE_PREEMPT_RCU description to note that it is
suitable for small machines.
2. Add some WARN_ON_ONCE() calls to check for (incorrect)
concurrent grace-period initialization.
3. Simplify quiescent-state detection (which also speeds up
TREE_PREEMPT_RCU grace periods slightly).
4. Fix a thinko in TREE_PREEMPT_RCU's synchronize_rcu() that
could result in premature grace periods.
