[PATCH tip/core/rcu 0/4] SRCU updates for v4.21/v5.0
From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Sun Nov 11 2018 - 15:08:44 EST
Hello!
This series contains SRCU updates:
1. Fix kernel-doc missing notation, courtesy of Randy Dunlap.
2. Prevent __call_srcu() counter wrap with read-side critical section.
3. Lock srcu_data structure in srcu_gp_start(), fixing a an extremely
rare but also extremely embarrassing concurrency bug, courtesy
of Dennis Krein.
4. Use "ssp" instead of "sp" for srcu_struct pointer, in the hope
that this prevents confusion about which lock is held.
Thanx, Paul
