Paul E. McKenney9b06e812005-05-01 08:59:04 -0700621 * synchronize_rcu() is guaranteed to block until after all the other
Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700622 * CPUs exit their critical sections. Similarly, if call_rcu() is invoked

626 *
627 * Note, however, that RCU callbacks are permitted to run concurrently
Paul E. McKenney77d84852010-07-08 17:38:59 -0700628 * with new RCU read-side critical sections. One way that this can happen
Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700629 * is via the following sequence of events: (1) CPU 0 enters an RCU

633 * callback is invoked. This is legal, because the RCU read-side critical
634 * section that was running concurrently with the call_rcu() (and which
635 * therefore might be referencing something that the corresponding RCU
636 * callback would free up) has completed before the corresponding
637 * RCU callback is invoked.
638 *
639 * RCU read-side critical sections may be nested. Any deferred actions
640 * will be deferred until the outermost RCU read-side critical section
641 * completes.

645 * read-side critical section that would block in a !PREEMPT kernel.
646 * But if you want the full story, read on!
647 *
648 * In non-preemptible RCU implementations (TREE_RCU and TINY_RCU), it
649 * is illegal to block while in an RCU read-side critical section. In
650 * preemptible RCU implementations (TREE_PREEMPT_RCU and TINY_PREEMPT_RCU)
651 * in CONFIG_PREEMPT kernel builds, RCU read-side critical sections may
652 * be preempted, but explicit blocking is illegal. Finally, in preemptible
