+<h2>Introduction</h2>
+
+This document describes RCU's expedited grace periods.
+Unlike RCU's normal grace periods, which accept long latencies to attain
+high efficiency and minimal disturbance, expedited grace periods accept
+lower efficiency and significant disturbance to attain shorter latencies.
+
+<p>
+There are three flavors of RCU (RCU-bh, RCU-preempt, and RCU-sched),
+but only two flavors of expedited grace periods because the RCU-bh
+expedited grace period maps onto the RCU-sched expedited grace period.
+Each of the remaining two implementations is covered in its own section.

+<h2><a name="Expedited Grace Period Design">
+Expedited Grace Period Design</a></h2>
+
+<p>
+The expedited RCU grace periods cannot be accused of being subtle,
+given that they for all intents and purposes hammer every CPU that
+has not yet provided a quiescent state for the current expedited
+grace period.
+The one saving grace is that the hammer has grown a bit smaller
+over time:  The old call to <tt>try_stop_cpus()</tt> has been
+replaced with a set of calls to <tt>smp_call_function_single()</tt>,
+each of which results in an IPI to the target CPU.
+The corresponding handler function checks the CPU's state, motivating
+a faster quiescent state where possible, and triggering a report
+of that quiescent state.
+As always for RCU, once everything has spent some time in a quiescent
+state, the expedited grace period has completed.
+
+<p>
+The details of the <tt>smp_call_function_single()</tt> handler's
+operation depend on the RCU flavor, as described in the following
+sections.
+
+<h2><a name="RCU-preempt Expedited Grace Periods">
+RCU-preempt Expedited Grace Periods</a></h2>
+
+<p>
+The overall flow of the handling of a given CPU by an RCU-preempt
+expedited grace period is shown in the following diagram:
+
+<p><img src="ExpRCUFlow.svg" alt="ExpRCUFlow.svg" width="55%">
+
+<p>
+The solid arrows denote direct action, for example, a function call.
+The dotted arrows denote indirect action, for example, an IPI
+or a state that is reached after some time.
+
+<p>
+If a given CPU is offline or idle, <tt>synchronize_rcu_expedited()</tt>
+will ignore it because idle and offline CPUs are already residing
+in quiescent states.
+Otherwise, the expedited grace period will use
+<tt>smp_call_function_single()</tt> to send the CPU an IPI, which
+is handled by <tt>sync_rcu_exp_handler()</tt>.
+
+<p>
+However, because this is preemptible RCU, <tt>sync_rcu_exp_handler()</tt>
+can check to see if the CPU is currently running in an RCU read-side
+critical section.
+If not, the handler can immediately report a quiescent state.
+Otherwise, it sets flags so that the outermost <tt>rcu_read_unlock()</tt>
+invocation will provide the needed quiescent-state report.
+This flag-setting avoids the previous forced preemption of all
+CPUs that might have RCU read-side critical sections.
+In addition, this flag-setting is done so as to avoid increasing
+the overhead of the common-case fastpath through the scheduler.
+
+<p>
+Again because this is preemptible RCU, an RCU read-side critical section
+can be preempted.
+When that happens, RCU will enqueue the task, which will the continue to
+block the current expedited grace period until it resumes and finds its
+outermost <tt>rcu_read_unlock()</tt>.
+The CPU will report a quiescent state just after enqueuing the task because
+the CPU is no longer blocking the grace period.
+It is instead the preempted task doing the blocking.

+</table>
+
+<p>
+Please note that this is just the overall flow:
+Additional complications can arise due to races with CPUs going idle
+or offline, among other things.
+
+<h2><a name="RCU-sched Expedited Grace Periods">
+RCU-sched Expedited Grace Periods</a></h2>
+
+<p>
+The overall flow of the handling of a given CPU by an RCU-sched
+expedited grace period is shown in the following diagram:
+
+<p><img src="ExpSchedFlow.svg" alt="ExpSchedFlow.svg" width="55%">
+
+<p>
+As with RCU-preempt's <tt>synchronize_rcu_expedited()</tt>,
+<tt>synchronize_sched_expedited()</tt> ignores offline and
+idle CPUs, again because they are in remotely detectable
+quiescent states.
+However, the <tt>synchronize_rcu_expedited()</tt> handler
+is <tt>sync_sched_exp_handler()</tt>, and because the
+<tt>rcu_read_lock_sched()</tt> and <tt>rcu_read_unlock_sched()</tt>
+leave no trace of their invocation, in general it is not possible to tell
+whether or not the current CPU is in an RCU read-side critical section.
+The best that <tt>sync_sched_exp_handler()</tt> can do is to check
+for idle, on the off-chance that the CPU went idle while the IPI
+was in flight.
+If the CPU is idle, then tt>sync_sched_exp_handler()</tt> reports
+the quiescent state.
+
+<p>
+Otherwise, the handler invokes <tt>resched_cpu()</tt>, which forces
+a future context switch.
+At the time of the context switch, the CPU reports the quiescent state.
+Should the CPU go offline first, it will report the quiescent state
+at that time.
+
+<h2><a name="Expedited Grace Period and CPU Hotplug">
+Expedited Grace Period and CPU Hotplug</a></h2>
+
+<p>
+The expedited nature of expedited grace periods require a much tighter
+interaction with CPU hotplug operations than is required for normal
+grace periods.
+In addition, attempting to IPI offline CPUs will result in splats, but
+failing to IPI online CPUs can result in too-short grace periods.
+Neither option is acceptable in production kernels.
+
+<p>
+The interaction between expedited grace periods and CPU hotplug operations
+is carried out at several levels:
+
+<ol>
+<li>	The number of CPUs that have ever been online is tracked
+	by the <tt>rcu_state</tt> structure's <tt>-&gt;ncpus</tt>
+	field.
+	The <tt>rcu_state</tt> structure's <tt>-&gt;ncpus_snap</tt>
+	field tracks the number of CPUs that have ever been online
+	at the beginning of an RCU expedited grace period.
+<li>	The identities of the CPUs that have ever been online is
+	tracked by the <tt>rcu_node</tt> structure's
+	<tt>-&gt;expmaskinitnext</tt> field.
+	The <tt>rcu_node</tt> structure's <tt>-&gt;expmaskinit</tt>
+	field tracks the identities of the CPUs that were online
+	at least once at the beginning of the most recent RCU
+	expedited grace period.
+	The <tt>rcu_state</tt> structure's <tt>-&gt;ncpus</tt> and
+	<tt>-&gt;ncpus_snap</tt> fields are used to detect when
+	new CPUs have come online for the first time, that is,
+	when the <tt>rcu_node</tt> structure's <tt>-&gt;expmaskinitnext</tt>
+	field has changed since the beginning of the last RCU
+	expedited grace period, which triggers an update of each
+	<tt>rcu_node</tt> structure's <tt>-&gt;expmaskinit</tt>
+	field from its <tt>-&gt;expmaskinitnext</tt> field.
+<li>	Each <tt>rcu_node</tt> structure's <tt>-&gt;expmaskinit</tt>
+	field is used to initialize that structure's
+	<tt>-&gt;expmask</tt> at the beginning of each RCU
+	expedited grace period.
+	This means that only those CPUs that have been online at least
+	once will be considered for a given grace period.
+<li>	Any CPU that goes offline will clear its bit in its leaf
+	<tt>rcu_node</tt> structure's <tt>-&gt;qsmaskinitnext</tt>
+	field, so any CPU with that bit clear can safely be ignored.
+	However, it is possible for a CPU coming online or going offline
+	to have this bit set for some time while <tt>cpu_online</tt>
+	returns <tt>false</tt>.
+<li>	For each non-idle CPU that RCU believes is currently online, the grace
+	period invokes <tt>smp_call_function_single()</tt>.
+	If this succeeds, the CPU was fully online.
+	Failure indicates that the CPU is in the process of coming online
+	or going offline, in which case it is necessary to wait for a
+	short time period and try again.
+	a concurrent CPU-hotplug operation to complete.
+<li>	In the case of RCU-sched, one of the last acts of an outgoing CPU
+	is to invoke <tt>rcu_report_dead()</tt>, which
+	reports a quiescent state for that CPU.
+	However, this is likely paranoia-induced redundancy. <!-- @@@ -->

+<tr><th align="left">Quick Quiz:</th></tr>
+<tr><td>
+	Why all the dancing around with multiple counters and masks
+	tracking CPUs that were once online?
+	Why not just have a single set of masks tracking the currently
+	online CPUs and be done with it?
+</td></tr>
+<tr><th align="left">Answer:</th></tr>
+<tr><td bgcolor="#ffffff"><font color="ffffff">
+	Maintaining single set of masks tracking the online CPUs <i>sounds</i>
+	easier, at least until you try working out all the race conditions
+	between grace-period initialization and CPU-hotplug operations.
+	For example, suppose initialization is progressing down the
+	tree while a CPU-offline operation is progressing up the tree.
+	This situation can result in bits set at the top of the tree
+	that have no counterparts at the bottom of the tree.
+	Those bits will never be cleared, which will result in
+	grace-period hangs.
+	In short, that way lies madness, to say nothing of a great many
+	bugs, hangs, and deadlocks.
+
+	<p><font color="ffffff">
+	In contrast, the current multi-mask multi-counter scheme ensures
+	that grace-period initialization will always see consistent masks
+	up and down the tree, which brings significant simplifications
+	over the single-mask method.

+<p>
+If each grace-period request was carried out separately, expedited
+grace periods would have abysmal scalability and high-load characteristics.
+Because each grace-period operation can serve an unlimited number of
+updates, it is important to <i>batch</i> requests, so that a single
+expedited grace-period operation will cover all requests in the
+corresponding batch.
+
+<p>
+This batching is controlled by a sequence counter named
+<tt>-&gt;expedited_sequence</tt> in the <tt>rcu_state</tt> structure.
+This counter has an odd value when there is an expedited grace period
+in progress and an even value otherwise, so that dividing the counter
+value by two gives the number of completed grace periods.
+During any given update request, the counter must transition from
+even to odd and then back to even, thus indicating that a grace
+period has elapsed.
+Therefore, if the initial value of the counter is <tt>s</tt>,
+the updater must wait until the counter reaches at least the
+value <tt>(s+3)&amp;~0x1</tt>.
+
+<p>
+Again, only one request in a given batch need actually carry out
+a grace-period operation, which means that the rest need some way
+to efficiently wait for that grace period to complete.
+However, that is the topic of the next section.
+
+<h3><a name="Funnel Locking and Wait/Wakeup">
+Funnel Locking and Wait/Wakeup</a></h3>
+
+<p>
+The natural way to sort out which of a batch of updaters will initiate
+the expedited grace period is to use the <tt>rcu_node</tt> combining
+tree.
+The first updater corresponding to a given grace period arriving
+at a given <tt>rcu_node</tt> structure records its desired grace-period
+sequence number in the <tt>-&gt;exp_seq_rq</tt> field and move up
+to the next level in the tree.
+Otherwise, if the <tt>-&gt;exp_seq_rq</tt> field already contains
+the sequence number for the desire grace period or some later one,
+the updater blocks on one of four wait queues in the
+<tt>-&gt;exp_wq[]</tt> array, using the second-from-bottom
+and third-from bottom bits as an index.
+An <tt>-&gt;exp_lock</tt> field in the <tt>rcu_node</tt> structure
+synchronizes access to these fields.
+
+<p>
+An empty <tt>rcu_node</tt> tree is shown in the following diagram,
+with the white cells representing the <tt>-&gt;exp_seq_rq</tt> field
+and the red cells representing the elements of the
+<tt>-&gt;exp_wq[]</tt> array.

+
+<p>
+The next diagram shows the situation after the arrival of Task&nbsp;A
+and Task&nbsp;B at the leftmost and rightmost leaf <tt>rcu_node</tt>
+structures, respectively.
+The current value of the <tt>rcu_state</tt> structure's
+<tt>-&gt;expedited_sequence</tt> field is zero, so adding three and
+clearing the bottom bit results in the value two, which both tasks
+record in the <tt>-&gt;exp_seq_rq</tt> field of their respective
+<tt>rcu_node</tt> structures:
+
+<p><img src="Funnel1.svg" alt="Funnel1.svg" width="75%">
+
+<p>
+Each of Tasks&nbsp;A and&nbsp;B will move up to the root
+<tt>rcu_node</tt> structure.
+Suppose that Task&nbsp;A wins, recording its desired grace-period sequence
+number and resulting in the state shown below:
+
+<p><img src="Funnel2.svg" alt="Funnel2.svg" width="75%">
+
+<p>
+Task&nbsp;A now advances to initiate a new grace period, while Task&nbsp;B
+moves up to the root <tt>rcu_node</tt> structure, and, seeing that
+its desired sequence number is already recorded, blocks on
+<tt>-&gt;exp_wq[1]</tt>.

+<p>
+If Tasks&nbsp;C and&nbsp;D also arrive at this point, they will compute the
+same desired grace-period sequence number, and see that both leaf
+<tt>rcu_node</tt> structures already have that value recorded.
+They will therefore block on their respective <tt>rcu_node</tt>
+structures' <tt>-&gt;exp_wq[1]</tt> fields, as shown below:
+
+<p><img src="Funnel3.svg" alt="Funnel3.svg" width="75%">
+
+<p>
+Task&nbsp;A now acquires the <tt>rcu_state</tt> structure's
+<tt>-&gt;exp_mutex</tt> and initiates the grace period, which
+increments <tt>-&gt;expedited_sequence</tt>.
+Therefore, if Tasks&nbsp;E and&nbsp;F arrive, they will compute
+a desired sequence number of 4 and will record this value as
+shown below:
+
+<p><img src="Funnel4.svg" alt="Funnel4.svg" width="75%">
+
+<p>
+Tasks&nbsp;E and&nbsp;F will propagate up the <tt>rcu_node</tt>
+combining tree, with Task&nbsp;F blocking on the root <tt>rcu_node</tt>
+structure and Task&nbsp;E wait for Task&nbsp;A to finish so that
+it can start the next grace period.
+The resulting state is as shown below:
+
+<p><img src="Funnel5.svg" alt="Funnel5.svg" width="75%">
+
+<p>
+Once the grace period completes, Task&nbsp;A
+starts waking up the tasks waiting for this grace period to complete,

+
+<p>
+Task&nbsp;E can then acquire <tt>-&gt;exp_mutex</tt> and increment

+If new tasks&nbsp;G and&nbsp;H arrive and moves up the combining tree at the

+
+<p>
+Note that three of the root <tt>rcu_node</tt> structure's

+However, at some point, Task&nbsp;A will wake up the

+in the following state:
+
+<p><img src="Funnel8.svg" alt="Funnel8.svg" width="75%">

+Execution will continue with Tasks&nbsp;E and&nbsp;H completing
