Thanx, Paul ------------------------------------------------------------------------ commit 9ae87e58f7c40b39ff80737e3375672f16316d23 Author: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Jan 9 14:10:50 2017 -0800 rcu: Make synchronize_rcu_expedited() safe for early boot The synchronize_rcu_expedited() function does not check for early-boot use, which can result in failures if it is invoked before the scheduler has started. Given that the rcupdate.rcu_expedited kernel parameter causes all calls to synchronize_rcu() to be directed instead to synchronize_rcu_expedited(), a usage restriction does not make sense. This commit therefore adds a rcu_scheduler_active check to synchronize_rcu_expedited(), so that it is a no-op before the scheduler starts. This behavior is correct because there is only a single CPU running during that time.
