The rcuwait utility provides an efficient and safe single wait/wake mechanism. It is used in situations where queued wait is the wrong semantics, and often too bulky. For example, cases where the wait is already done under a lock. In the past, rcuwait has been extended to support beyond only uninterruptible sleep, and similarly, there are users that can benefit for the addition of timeouts. As such, tntroduce rcuwait_wait_event_timeout(), with semantics equivalent to calls for queued wait counterparts.

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.
