[PATCH 01/16] rcu/nocb: Fix potential missed nocb_timer rearm

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

 



The "nocb_bypass_timer" ends up calling wake_nocb_gp() which deletes
the pending "nocb_timer" (note they are not the same timers) for the
given rdp without resetting the matching state stored in nocb_defer
wakeup.

As a result, a future call_rcu() on that rdp may be fooled and think the
timer is armed when it's not, missing a deferred nocb_gp wakeup.

Fix this with resetting rdp->nocb_defer_wakeup when we disarm the timer.
