Hello!
This series re-implements RCU Tasks Trace in terms of SRCU-fast,
reducing the size of the Linux-kernel RCU implementation by several
hundred lines of code. It also removes a conditional branch from the
srcu_read_lock_fast() implementation in order to make SRCU-fast a
bit more fastpath-friendly. The patches are as follows:
1. Re-implement RCU Tasks Trace in terms of SRCU-fast.
2. Remove unused ->trc_ipi_to_cpu and ->trc_blkd_cpu from
task_struct.
3. Remove ->trc_blkd_node from task_struct.
4. Remove ->trc_holdout_list from task_struct.
5. Remove rcu_tasks_trace_qs() and the functions that it calls.
6. context_tracking: Remove
rcu_task_trace_heavyweight_{enter,exit}().
7. Remove ->trc_reader_special from task_struct.
8. Remove now-empty RCU Tasks Trace functions and calls to them.
9. Remove unused rcu_tasks_trace_lazy_ms and trc_stall_chk_rdr
struct.
10. Remove now-empty show_rcu_tasks_trace_gp_kthread() function.
11. Remove now-empty rcu_tasks_trace_get_gp_data() function.
12. Remove now-empty rcu_tasks_trace_torture_stats_print() function.
13. Remove now-empty get_rcu_tasks_trace_gp_kthread() function.
14. Move rcu_tasks_trace_srcu_struct out of #ifdef
CONFIG_TASKS_RCU_GENERIC.
15. Add noinstr-fast rcu_read_{,un}lock_tasks_trace() APIs.
16. Remove now-unused rcu_task_ipi_delay and TASKS_TRACE_RCU_READ_MB.
17. Create a DEFINE_SRCU_FAST().
18. Use smp_mb() only when necessary in RCU Tasks Trace readers.
19. Update Requirements.rst for RCU Tasks Trace.
20. Deprecate rcu_read_{,un}lock_trace().
21. Mark diagnostic functions as notrace.
22. Guard __DECLARE_TRACE() use of __DO_TRACE_CALL() with SRCU-fast.
23. Create an srcu_expedite_current() function.
24. Test srcu_expedite_current().
25. Create an rcu_tasks_trace_expedite_current() function.
26. Test rcu_tasks_trace_expedite_current().
27. Make DEFINE_SRCU_FAST() available to modules.
28. Make SRCU-fast available to heap srcu_struct structures.
29. Make grace-period determination use ssp->srcu_reader_flavor.
30. Exercise DEFINE_STATIC_SRCU_FAST() and init_srcu_struct_fast().
31. Exercise DEFINE_STATIC_SRCU_FAST() and init_srcu_struct_fast().
32. Require special srcu_struct define/init for SRCU-fast readers.
33. Make SRCU-fast readers enforce use of SRCU-fast definition/init.
34. Update for SRCU-fast definitions and initialization.
Thanx, Paul
