Subject: [PATCH rcu 6/8] rcu: The rcu_needs_cpu() function is not a quiescent state
Date: Thu, 7 Jun 2012 21:26:53 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1339129615-1795-6-git-send-email-paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1339129615-1795-1-git-send-email-paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paul.mckenney@linaro.org>
The TINY_PREEMPT_RCU() function rcu_preempt_needs_cpu(), which is called
from rcu_needs_cpu(), assumes that it is in a quiescent state with respect
to the CPU. This is no longer the case. This commit therefore updates
rcu_preempt_needs_cpu() to make it aware that it is not running in a
quiescent state.
