Currently, nocb_cb_wait() unconditionally acquires the leaf rcu_node ->lock to advance callbacks when done invoking the previous batch. It does this while holding ->nocb_lock, which means that contention on the leaf rcu_node ->lock visits itself on the ->nocb_lock. This commit therefore makes this lock acquisition conditional, forgoing callback advancement when the leaf rcu_node ->lock is not immediately available. (In this case, the no-CBs grace-period kthread will eventually do any needed callback advancement.) Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.ibm.com>
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
