\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Replace for_each_cpu with for_each_possible_cpu. Modifies occurences in documentaion. for_each_cpu in whatisRCU.txt should be for_each_online_cpu ???

*	rcu: undeclared variable used in documentation	Baruch Even	2006-03-24	1	-2/+2
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	The RCU documentation uses an fp variable which is not declared in the code snippets. Use the new_fp variable instead. Signed-Off-By: Baruch Even <baruch@ev-en.org> Acked-by: <paulmck@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Adrian Bunk <bunk@stusta.de>

*	[PATCH] Remove hlist_for_each_rcu() API, convert existing use to ↵	Paul E. McKenney	2005-11-07	1	-2/+0
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	hlist_for_each_entry_rcu Remove the hlist_for_each_rcu() API, which is used only in one place, and is trivially converted to hlist_for_each_entry_rcu(), making the code shorter and more readable. Any out-of-tree uses may be similarly converted. Signed-off-by: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@osdl.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@osdl.org>
*	[PATCH] RCU torture-testing kernel module	Paul E. McKenney	2005-10-31	1	-0/+122
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	This patch is a rewrite of the one submitted on October 1st, using modules (http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=112819093522998&w=2). This rewrite adds a tristate CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST, which enables an intense torture test of the RCU infratructure. This is needed due to the continued changes to the RCU infrastructure to accommodate dynamic ticks, CPU hotplug, realtime, and so on. Most of the code is in a separate file that is compiled only if the CONFIG variable is set. Documentation on how to run the test and interpret the output is also included. This code has been tested on i386 and ppc64, and an earlier version of the code has received extensive testing on a number of architectures as part of the PREEMPT_RT patchset. Signed-off-by: "Paul E.

*	[PATCH] NMI: Update NMI users of RCU to use new API	Paul E. McKenney	2005-09-08	1	-0/+112
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Uses of RCU for dynamically changeable NMI handlers need to use the new rcu_dereference() and rcu_assign_pointer() facilities. This change makes it clear that these uses are safe from a memory-barrier viewpoint, but the main purpose is to document exactly what operations are being protected by RCU. This has been tested on x86 and x86-64, which are the only architectures affected by this change.

*	Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2	Linus Torvalds	2005-04-17	6	-0/+1123
	Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
