[PATCH 1/2] srcu: Remove needless rcu_seq_done() check while holding read lock

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



As the code changes, now, srcu_gp_start_if_needed() holds the srcu read
lock, gets the gp_seq snap and call srcu_funnel_gp_start() passing that
snap value.

As the rcu_seq_snap() promises "a full grace period has elapsed since
the current time".  In srcu_funnel_gp_start(), the statement
  rcu_seq_done(&ssp->srcu_gp_seq, s)
always return false.

The same condition stands for srcu_funnel_exp_start(). Hence removing
all the checks of rcu_seq_done().

Test info:
  Running "tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/bin/kvm.sh --allcpus --duration 10h --configs 18*SRCU-P"
without any failure.
