From 1943c89de700248d68385300a9b5588a1e314f90 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Mon, 30 Jul 2012 17:19:25 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Reduce synchronize_rcu_expedited() latency The synchronize_rcu_expedited() function disables interrupts across a scan of all leaf rcu_node structures, which is not good for real-time scheduling latency on large systems (hundreds or especially thousands of CPUs). This commit therefore holds off CPU-hotplug operations using get_online_cpus(), and removes the prior acquisiion of the ->onofflock (which required disabling interrupts). Signed-off-by: Paul E.
