Subject: [PATCH 08/13] srcutree: Forbid srcu_expedite_current() on atomic SRCU
Date: Mon,  7 Sep 2026 15:58:24 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260907075829.2073224-9-kunwu.chan@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260907075829.2073224-1-kunwu.chan@linux.dev>

From: Kunwu Chan <kunwu.chan@gmail.com>

srcu_expedite_current() has no early guard for atomic SRCU, so calling
it on an atomic srcu_struct leaks the expediting callback in
__call_srcu(), leaving ->srcu_ec_state stuck at SRCU_EC_PENDING.

Add the same WARN_ON_ONCE()-guarded early return used by the other
forbidden APIs, and list srcu_expedite_current() and srcu_barrier() in
synchronize_srcu_atomic()'s documentation.
