From 523bddd553c09a2cf051eb724bffba680424f5ec Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Sat, 1 Jun 2019 13:33:55 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] rcu/nocb: Reduce contention at no-CBs invocation-done time 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.
