Subject: [PATCH rcu 10/10] rcu: Use _full() API to debug synchronize_rcu()
Date: Tue, 4 Mar 2025 19:05:05 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250305030505.94059-11-boqun.feng@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250305030505.94059-1-boqun.feng@gmail.com>
From: "Uladzislau Rezki (Sony)" <urezki@gmail.com>
Switch for using of get_state_synchronize_rcu_full() and
poll_state_synchronize_rcu_full() pair to debug a normal
synchronize_rcu() call.
Just using "not" full APIs to identify if a grace period is
passed or not might lead to a false-positive kernel splat.
It can happen, because get_state_synchronize_rcu() compresses
both normal and expedited states into one single unsigned long
value, so a poll_state_synchronize_rcu() can miss GP-completion
when synchronize_rcu()/synchronize_rcu_expedited() concurrently
run.
To address this, switch to poll_state_synchronize_rcu_full() and
get_state_synchronize_rcu_full() APIs, which use separate variables
for expedited and normal states.
