Re: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/6] Dynticks updates for 4.11

From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Tue Jan 17 2017 - 21:46:29 EST


Hello!

This series provides v2 of the dynticks updates:

1-4. Abstract access to the dyntick counter, replacing the current
open-coding of atomic operations.

5. Check cond_resched_rcu_qs() state less often to reduce GP overhead.

6. Adjust FQS offline checks for exact online-CPU detection.

Changes since v1:

o Apply feedback from Josh Triplett and Peter Zijlstra.

Thanx, Paul
