Subject[RFC][PATCH] srcu: Implement call_srcu()
From
Date
Subject: srcu: Implement call_srcu()
From: Peter Zijlstra <a.p.zijlstra@chello.nl>
Date: Mon Jan 30 23:20:49 CET 2012

Implement call_srcu() by using a state machine driven by
call_rcu_sched() and timer callbacks.

The state machine is a direct derivation of the existing
synchronize_srcu() code and replaces synchronize_sched() calls with a
call_rcu_sched() callback and the schedule_timeout() calls with simple
timer callbacks.

It then re-implements synchronize_srcu() using a completion where we
send the complete through call_srcu().

It completely wrecks synchronize_srcu_expedited() which is only used
by KVM. 3 of the 5 use cases look like they really want to use
call_srcu() instead, the remaining 2 I don't know but hope they can,
which would let us remove it.

Compile tested only!! :-)
