Subject: [PATCH RFC tip/core/rcu 0/4] Updates to RCU_FAST_NO_HZ
Date: Mon, 23 Apr 2012 09:15:39 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120423161539.GA6467@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

Hello!

This series covers enhancements to RCU_FAST_NO_HZ intended for v3.4-rc2.
The individual commits are as follows:

1.	Add tracing to rcu_cleanup_after_idle().
2.	Switch from hrtimer to normal timers to reduce overhead.
3.	Upgrade RCU_FAST_NO_HZ state machine to better account for
	brief pauses out of idle, which can happen due to power-management
	actions, Steven Rostedt's new RCU-idle-capable tracing macros,
	or my RCU_NONIDLE() macro.
4.	Use add_timer_on() to avoid timer migration.

							Thanx, Paul
