This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled entry: Explicitly flush pending rcuog wakeup before last rescheduling point to the 5.10-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: entry-explicitly-flush-pending-rcuog-wakeup-before-l.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.10 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 20ed96c067f883754be413dacb263dd5b3938fe5 Author: Frederic Weisbecker <frederic@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Mon Feb 1 00:05:47 2021 +0100 entry: Explicitly flush pending rcuog wakeup before last rescheduling point [ Upstream commit 47b8ff194c1fd73d58dc339b597d466fe48c8958 ] Following the idle loop model, cleanly check for pending rcuog wakeup before the last rescheduling point on resuming to user mode. This way we can avoid to do it from rcu_user_enter() with the last resort self-IPI hack that enforces rescheduling.
