From 1331e7a1bbe1f11b19c4327ba0853bee2a606543 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Thu, 2 Aug 2012 17:43:50 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Remove _rcu_barrier() dependency on __stop_machine() Currently, _rcu_barrier() relies on preempt_disable() to prevent any CPU from going offline, which in turn depends on CPU hotplug's use of __stop_machine(). This patch therefore makes _rcu_barrier() use get_online_cpus() to block CPU-hotplug operations. This has the added benefit of removing the need for _rcu_barrier() to adopt callbacks: Because CPU-hotplug operations are excluded, there can be no callbacks to adopt. This commit simplifies the code accordingly. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney Reviewed-by: Josh Triplett --- Reading git-format-patch failed
