From f96e9232e04856c781d4f71923a46dd3f7b429fa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Mon, 4 Jan 2010 15:09:00 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Adjust force_quiescent_state() locking, step 1 This causes rnp->lock to be held on entry to force_quiescent_state()'s switch statement. This is a first step towards prohibiting starting grace periods while force_quiescent_state() is executing, which will reduce the number and complexity of races that force_quiescent_state() is involved in.
