From 9226b10d78ffe7895549045fe388dc5e73b87eac Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Fri, 27 Jan 2017 14:17:50 -0800 Subject: rcu: Place guard on rcu_all_qs() and rcu_note_context_switch() actions The rcu_all_qs() and rcu_note_context_switch() do a series of checks, taking various actions to supply RCU with quiescent states, depending on the outcomes of the various checks. This is a bit much for scheduling fastpaths, so this commit creates a separate ->rcu_urgent_qs field in the rcu_dynticks structure that acts as a global guard for these checks. Thus, in the common case, rcu_all_qs() and rcu_note_context_switch() check the ->rcu_urgent_qs field, find it false, and simply return. Signed-off-by: Paul E.
