Merge tag 'rcu.2022.12.02a' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/paulmck/linux-rcu
Pull RCU updates from Paul McKenney:
- Documentation updates. This is the second in a series from an ongoing
review of the RCU documentation.
- Miscellaneous fixes.
- Introduce a default-off Kconfig option that depends on RCU_NOCB_CPU
that, on CPUs mentioned in the nohz_full or rcu_nocbs boot-argument
CPU lists, causes call_rcu() to introduce delays.
These delays result in significant power savings on nearly idle
Android and ChromeOS systems. These savings range from a few percent
to more than ten percent.
This series also includes several commits that change call_rcu() to a
new call_rcu_hurry() function that avoids these delays in a few
cases, for example, where timely wakeups are required. Several of
these are outside of RCU and thus have acks and reviews from the
relevant maintainers.
- Create an srcu_read_lock_nmisafe() and an srcu_read_unlock_nmisafe()
for architectures that support NMIs, but which do not provide
NMI-safe this_cpu_inc(). These NMI-safe SRCU functions are required
by the upcoming lockless printk() work by John Ogness et al.
- Changes providing minor but important increases in torture test
coverage for the new RCU polled-grace-period APIs.
- Changes to torturescript that avoid redundant kernel builds, thus
providing about a 30% speedup for the torture.sh acceptance test.
