Subject: [PATCH v4 0/9] Implement RCU Tasks Trace in terms of SRCU for post-v4.19
Date: Mon, 29 Dec 2025 11:10:55 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <b206b083-f611-43b6-993f-78ddbe315813@paulmck-laptop> (raw)

Hello!

This v4 patch series re-implements RCU Tasks Trace in terms of SRCU-fast,
reducing the size of the Linux-kernel RCU implementation by several
hundred lines of code.  The patches are as follows:

1.	Re-implement RCU Tasks Trace in terms of SRCU-fast.

2.	context_tracking: Remove
	rcu_task_trace_heavyweight_{enter,exit}().

3.	Clean up after the SRCU-fastification of RCU Tasks Trace.

4.	Move rcu_tasks_trace_srcu_struct out of #ifdef
	CONFIG_TASKS_RCU_GENERIC.

5.	Add noinstr-fast rcu_read_{,un}lock_tasks_trace() APIs.

6.	Update Requirements.rst for RCU Tasks Trace.

7.	Deprecate rcu_read_{,un}lock_trace().

8.	Create an rcu_tasks_trace_expedite_current() function.

9.	Test rcu_tasks_trace_expedite_current().

Changes since v3:

o	Rebase onto v6.19-rc1.

o	Wait for arm64 per-CPU variable speedups to reach mainline.

https://lore.kernel.org/all/a1e505e4-931b-45cf-8ca7-337442aa598e@paulmck-laptop/#r

Changes since v2:

o	SRCU improvments not strictly related to RCU tasks trace have
	been moved out to a separate series.

o	Use the new DEFINE_SRCU_FAST().

https://lore.kernel.org/all/7fa58961-2dce-4e08-8174-1d1cc592210f@paulmck-laptop/

Changes since v1:

o	Consolidate RCU Tasks Trace cleanup patches per Alexei Starovoitov
	feedback.  This explains the decrease from 34 patches in v1 to
	only 21 in this v2 series.

o	While consolidating, consolidate the noinstr-fast patches and the
	DEFINE_SRCU_FAST()/init_srcu_struct_fast() patches.

o	Upgrade comments per Peter Zijlstra feedback.

o	Extract Tiny SRCU bug fix into its own commit per Andrii Nakryiko
	feedback.

o	Switch srcu_expedite_current() from preempt_disable() to
	migrate_disable() for PREEMPT_RT kernels per Zqiang feedback.

o	Apply tags.
