[PATCH tip/core/rcu 2/2] rcu: Tighten up affinity and check for sysidle
From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Tue Mar 03 2015 - 12:50:59 EST
From: "Paul E. McKenney" <paulmck@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
If the RCU grace-period kthread invoking rcu_sysidle_check_cpu()
happens to be running on the tick_do_timer_cpu initially,
then rcu_bind_gp_kthread() won't bind it. This kthread might
then migrate before invoking rcu_gp_fqs(), which will trigger the
WARN_ON_ONCE() in rcu_sysidle_check_cpu(). This commit therefore makes
rcu_bind_gp_kthread() do the binding even if the kthread is currently
on the same CPU. Because this incurs added overhead, this commit also
causes each RCU grace-period kthread to invoke rcu_bind_gp_kthread()
once at boot rather than at the beginning of each grace period.
And as long as rcu_bind_gp_kthread() is being modified, this commit
eliminates its #ifdef.
