[PATCH] rcu: Remove unnecessary READ_ONCE in rcu_preempt_read_enter/exit

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

 



The two READ_ONCEs here imply that there might be updater concurrently
modifies rcu_read_lock_nesting, although it's true there could be
interrupt handlers enter rcu RSCS, but rcu_read_lock_nesting should
remain unchanged after they finished. That is, READ_ONCE and then
WRITE_ONCE the same variable is not a valid pattern, this patch thus
removes the two READ_ONCEs.
