Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/3] Tiny RCU updates for 4.2
Date: Tue, 12 May 2015 15:48:55 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20150512224855.GA4776@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

Hello!

This series contains updates to Tiny RCU, including a low-probability but
quite real race condition.

1.	Further shrink Tiny RCU by making empty functions static inlines.

2.	Test both RCU-sched and RCU-bh for Tiny RCU, which located the
	race condition fixed by #3 below.

3.	Correctly handle non-empty Tiny RCU callback list with none ready.

							Thanx, Paul
