From 8eb74b2b291e7bf6aa59fcb4e59f236382f00bf5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Fri, 13 Feb 2015 10:52:28 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Rework preemptible expedited bitmask handling Currently, the rcu_node tree ->expmask bitmasks are initially set to reflect the online CPUs. This is pointless, because only the CPUs preempted within RCU read-side critical sections by the preceding synchronize_sched_expedited() need to be tracked. This commit therefore instead sets up these bitmasks based on the state of the ->blkd_tasks lists. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney --- Reading git-format-patch failed
