This patch implements a new version of RCU which allows its read-side critical sections to be preempted. It uses a set of counter pairs to keep track of the read-side critical sections and flips them when all tasks exit read-side critical section. The details of this implementation can be found in this paper - http://www.rdrop.com/users/paulmck/RCU/OLSrtRCU.2006.08.11a.pdf and the article- http://lwn.net/Articles/253651/ This patch was developed as a part of the -rt kernel development and meant to provide better latencies when read-side critical sections of RCU don't disable preemption. As a consequence of keeping track of RCU readers, the readers have a slight overhead (optimizations in the paper). This implementation co-exists with the "classic" RCU implementations and can be switched to at compiler. Also includes RCU tracing summarized in debugfs.

|
|
* When synchronize_rcu() is invoked on one CPU while other CPUs
|
|
* are within RCU read-side critical sections, then the
|
|
* synchronize_rcu() is guaranteed to block until after all the other
|
|
* CPUs exit their critical sections. Similarly, if call_rcu() is invoked
|
|
* on one CPU while other CPUs are within RCU read-side critical
|
|
* sections, invocation of the corresponding RCU callback is deferred
|
|
* until after the all the other CPUs exit their critical sections.
|
|
*
|
|
* Note, however, that RCU callbacks are permitted to run concurrently
|
|
* with RCU read-side critical sections. One way that this can happen
|
|
* is via the following sequence of events: (1) CPU 0 enters an RCU
|
|
* read-side critical section, (2) CPU 1 invokes call_rcu() to register
|
|
* an RCU callback, (3) CPU 0 exits the RCU read-side critical section,
|
|
* (4) CPU 2 enters a RCU read-side critical section, (5) the RCU
|
|
* callback is invoked. This is legal, because the RCU read-side critical
|
|
* section that was running concurrently with the call_rcu() (and which
|
|
* therefore might be referencing something that the corresponding RCU
|
|
* callback would free up) has completed before the corresponding
|
|
* RCU callback is invoked.
|
|
*
|
|
* RCU read-side critical sections may be nested. Any deferred actions
|
|
* will be deferred until the outermost RCU read-side critical section
|
|
* completes.
|
|
*
|
|
* It is illegal to block while in an RCU read-side critical section.
