| |
Hello!
The following series improves RCU's handling of CPU hotplug. It also contains a couple of ARM placeholder patches in case someone gets caught out by tighter diagnostics.
1. Eliminate a HOTPLUG_CPU #ifdef in favor of IS_ENABLED()
2. Adjust rcu_read_unlock_special()'s acquisition of the task's lock to start allowing for the fact that blocked tasks are no longer migrated to the root rcu_node structure. If the warning does not trigger, a later patch will eliminate the loop.
3. Rmove dead code from force_qs_rnp().
4. Remove redundant offline check.
5. Correctly initialize ->rcu_qs_ctr_snap at online time to get the code out of its current "working by accident" state.
6. Move smpboot_unpark_threads() handling into a notifier for uniformity.
7. [Placeholder for ARM64] Use common code for ARM64 CPU-offline notification.
8. [Placeholder for ARM] Use common code for ARM CPU-offline notification.
9. Remove extraneous __cpuinit, courtesy of Paul Gortmaker.
Thanx, Paul
