+CONFIG_TINY_RCU and CONFIG_TINY_PREEMPT_RCU debugfs Files and Formats
+
+These implementations of RCU provides a single debugfs file under the
+top-level directory RCU, namely rcu/rcudata, which displays fields in
+rcu_bh_ctrlblk, rcu_sched_ctrlblk and, for CONFIG_TINY_PREEMPT_RCU,
+rcu_preempt_ctrlblk.
+
+The output of "cat rcu/rcudata" is as follows:
+
+rcu_preempt: qlen=24 gp=1097669 g197/p197/c197 tasks=...
+             ttb=. btg=no ntb=184 neb=0 nnb=183 j=01f7 bt=0274
+             normal balk: nt=1097669 gt=0 bt=371 b=0 ny=25073378 nos=0
+             exp balk: bt=0 nos=0
+rcu_sched: qlen: 0
+rcu_bh: qlen: 0
+
+This is split into rcu_preempt, rcu_sched, and rcu_bh sections, with the
+rcu_preempt section appearing only in CONFIG_TINY_PREEMPT_RCU builds.
+The last three lines of the rcu_preempt section appear only in
+CONFIG_RCU_BOOST kernel builds.  The fields are as follows:
+
+o	"qlen" is the number of RCU callbacks currently waiting either
+	for an RCU grace period or waiting to be invoked.  This is the
+	only field present for rcu_sched and rcu_bh, due to the
+	short-circuiting of grace period in those two cases.
+
+o	"gp" is the number of grace periods that have completed.
+
+o	"g197/p197/c197" displays the grace-period state, with the
+	"g" number being the number of grace periods that have started
+	(mod 256), the "p" number being the number of grace periods
+	that the CPU has responded to (also mod 256), and the "c"
+	number being the number of grace periods that have completed
+	(once again mode 256).
+
+	Why have both "gp" and "g"?  Because the data flowing into
+	"gp" is only present in a CONFIG_RCU_TRACE kernel.
+
+o	"tasks" is a set of bits.  The first bit is "T" if there are
+	currently tasks that have recently blocked within an RCU
+	read-side critical section, the second bit is "N" if any of the
+	aforementioned tasks are blocking the current RCU grace period,
+	and the third bit is "E" if any of the aforementioned tasks are
+	blocking the current expedited grace period.  Each bit is "."
+	if the corresponding condition does not hold.
+
+o	"ttb" is a single bit.  It is "B" if any of the blocked tasks
+	need to be priority boosted and "." otherwise.
+
+o	"btg" indicates whether boosting has been carried out during
+	the current grace period, with "exp" indicating that boosting
+	is in progress for an expedited grace period, "no" indicating
+	that boosting has not yet started for a normal grace period,
+	"begun" indicating that boosting has bebug for a normal grace
+	period, and "done" indicating that boosting has completed for
+	a normal grace period.
+
+o	"ntb" is the total number of tasks subjected to RCU priority boosting
+	periods since boot.
+
+o	"neb" is the number of expedited grace periods that have had
+	to resort to RCU priority boosting since boot.
+
+o	"nnb" is the number of normal grace periods that have had
+	to resort to RCU priority boosting since boot.
+
+o	"j" is the low-order 12 bits of the jiffies counter in hexadecimal.
+
+o	"bt" is the low-order 12 bits of the value that the jiffies counter
+	will have at the next time that boosting is scheduled to begin.
+
+o	In the line beginning with "normal balk", the fields are as follows:
+
+	o	"nt" is the number of times that the system balked from
+		boosting because there were no blocked tasks to boost.
+		Note that the system will balk from boosting even if the
+		grace period is overdue when the currently running task
+		is looping within an RCU read-side critical section.
+		There is no point in boosting in this case, because
+		boosting a running task won't make it run any faster.
+
+	o	"gt" is the number of times that the system balked
+		from boosting because, although there were blocked tasks,
+		none of them were preventing the current grace period
+		from completing.
+
+	o	"bt" is the number of times that the system balked
+		from boosting because boosting was already in progress.
+
+	o	"b" is the number of times that the system balked from
+		boosting because boosting had already completed for
+		the grace period in question.
+
+	o	"ny" is the number of times that the system balked from
+		boosting because it was not yet time to start boosting
+		the grace period in question.
+
+	o	"nos" is the number of times that the system balked from
+		boosting for inexplicable ("not otherwise specified")
+		reasons.  This can actually happen due to races involving
+		increments of the jiffies counter.
+
+o	In the line beginning with "exp balk", the fields are as follows:
+
+	o	"bt" is the number of times that the system balked from
+		boosting because there were no blocked tasks to boost.
+
+	o	"nos" is the number of times that the system balked from
+		 boosting for inexplicable ("not otherwise specified")
+		 reasons.
