From 8ae0ae6737ad449c8ae21e2bb01d9736f360a933 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Thomas Gleixner Date: Sun, 3 May 2020 15:08:52 +0200 Subject: rcu: Provide rcu_irq_exit_preempt() Interrupts and exceptions invoke rcu_irq_enter() on entry and need to invoke rcu_irq_exit() before they either return to the interrupted code or invoke the scheduler due to preemption. The general assumption is that RCU idle code has to have preemption disabled so that a return from interrupt cannot schedule. So the return from interrupt code invokes rcu_irq_exit() and preempt_schedule_irq(). If there is any imbalance in the rcu_irq/nmi* invocations or RCU idle code had preemption enabled then this goes unnoticed until the CPU goes idle or some other RCU check is executed. Provide rcu_irq_exit_preempt() which can be invoked from the interrupt/exception return code in case that preemption is enabled. It invokes rcu_irq_exit() and contains a few sanity checks in case that CONFIG_PROVE_RCU is enabled to catch such issues directly. Signed-off-by: Thomas Gleixner Reviewed-by: Paul E.
