Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/6] Miscellaneous fixes for 4.7
Date: Tue, 12 Apr 2016 08:01:57 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20160412150157.GA19367@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)

Hello!

This series provides miscellaneous fixes for RCU:

1.	Consolidate RCU's single-shot dumping of the ftrace buffer.  
	This is a bit widespread, so the upcoming documentation,
	expedited-grace-period, and torture patchsets are also based
	on this patch.

2.	Awaken grace-period kthread at RCU CPU stall-warning time.

3.	Move the FQS timeout farther into the future only if the current
	wakeup actually resulted in an FQS scan.

4.	Awaken grace-period kthread if too long since FQS.

5.	Remove superfluous versions of rcu_read_lock_sched_held(),
	courtesy of Boqun Feng.

6.	Dump ftrace buffer when kicking grace-period kthread.

								Thanx, Paul
