227 *
Paul E. McKenney9b06e812005-05-01 08:59:04 -0700228 * When synchronize_rcu() is invoked on one CPU while other CPUs
Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700229 * are within RCU read-side critical sections, then the

Linus Torvalds1da177e2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700231 * CPUs exit their critical sections. Similarly, if call_rcu() is invoked
232 * on one CPU while other CPUs are within RCU read-side critical
233 * sections, invocation of the corresponding RCU callback is deferred
234 * until after the all the other CPUs exit their critical sections.
235 *
236 * Note, however, that RCU callbacks are permitted to run concurrently
237 * with RCU read-side critical sections. One way that this can happen
238 * is via the following sequence of events: (1) CPU 0 enters an RCU
239 * read-side critical section, (2) CPU 1 invokes call_rcu() to register
240 * an RCU callback, (3) CPU 0 exits the RCU read-side critical section,
241 * (4) CPU 2 enters a RCU read-side critical section, (5) the RCU
242 * callback is invoked. This is legal, because the RCU read-side critical
243 * section that was running concurrently with the call_rcu() (and which
244 * therefore might be referencing something that the corresponding RCU
245 * callback would free up) has completed before the corresponding
246 * RCU callback is invoked.
247 *
248 * RCU read-side critical sections may be nested. Any deferred actions
249 * will be deferred until the outermost RCU read-side critical section
250 * completes.
