Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 06/10] tiny_rcu: Directly force QS when call_rcu_[bh|sched]() on idle_task
From: Lai Jiangshan <laijs@...fujitsu.com>
For RCU in UP, context-switch = QS = GP, thus we can force a
context-switch when any call_rcu_[bh|sched]() is happened on idle_task.
After doing so, rcu_idle/irq_enter/exit() are useless, so we can simply
make these functions empty.
More important, this change does not change the functionality logically.
Note: raise_softirq(RCU_SOFTIRQ)/rcu_sched_qs() in rcu_idle_enter() and
outmost rcu_irq_exit() will have to wake up the ksoftirqd
(due to in_interrupt() == 0).
Before this patch After this patch:
call_rcu_sched() in idle; call_rcu_sched() in idle
set resched
do other stuffs; do other stuffs
outmost rcu_irq_exit() outmost rcu_irq_exit() (empty function)
(or rcu_idle_enter()) (or rcu_idle_enter(), also empty function)
start to resched. (see above)
rcu_sched_qs() rcu_sched_qs()
QS,and GP and advance cb QS,and GP and advance cb
wake up the ksoftirqd wake up the ksoftirqd
set resched
resched to ksoftirqd (or other) resched to ksoftirqd (or other)
These two code patches are almost the same.
