This commit abstracts most of the rcu_tasks_kthread() function's loop body into a new rcu_tasks_one_gp() function. It also introduces a new ->tasks_gp_mutex to synchronize concurrent calls to this new rcu_tasks_one_gp() function. This commit is preparation for allowing RCU tasks grace periods to be driven by the calling task during the mid-boot dead zone. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org>
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.
