From 818615c4cde2a71a5857007b134cce89d506cc3f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Wed, 11 Jul 2012 00:24:57 -0700 Subject: rcu: Pull TINY_RCU dyntick-idle tracing into non-idle region Because TINY_RCU's idle detection keys directly off of the nesting level, rather than from a separate variable as in TREE_RCU, the TINY_RCU dyntick-idle tracing on transition to idle must happen before the change to the nesting level. This commit therefore makes this change by passing the desired new value (rather than the old value) of the nesting level in to rcu_idle_enter_common().

McKenney" Date: Tue, 31 Jul 2012 10:12:48 -0700 Subject: rcu: Permit RCU_NONIDLE() to be used from interrupt context There is a need to use RCU from interrupt context, but either before rcu_irq_enter() is called or after rcu_irq_exit() is called. If the interrupt occurs from idle, then lockdep-RCU will complain about such uses, as they appear to be illegal uses of RCU from the idle loop. In other environments, RCU_NONIDLE() could be used to properly protect the use of RCU, but RCU_NONIDLE() currently cannot be invoked except from process context. This commit therefore modifies RCU_NONIDLE() to permit its use more globally. Reported-by: Steven Rostedt Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney Signed-off-by: Paul E.

Of course, idle is also an extended quiescent state, so that the call to rcu_sched_qs() speeds up RCU's invoking of any callbacks that might be queued. This speed-up is important when entering into dyntick-idle mode -- if there are no further scheduling-clock interrupts, the callbacks might never be invoked, which could result in a system hang. However, processing callbacks does event tracing, which in turn implies RCU read-side critical sections, which are illegal in extended quiescent states. This patch therefore moves the call to rcu_sched_qs() so that it precedes the point at which we inform lockdep that RCU has entered an extended quiescent state.
