From ab4720ec76b756e1f8705e207a7b392b0453afd6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dipankar Sarma Date: Mon, 12 Dec 2005 00:37:05 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] add rcu_barrier() synchronization point This introduces a new interface - rcu_barrier() which waits until all the RCUs queued until this call have been completed. Reiser4 needs this, because we do more than just freeing memory object in our RCU callback: we also remove it from the list hanging off super-block. This means, that before freeing reiser4-specific portion of super-block (during umount) we have to wait until all pending RCU callbacks are executed. The only change of reiser4 made to the original patch, is exporting of rcu_barrier(). Cc: Hans Reiser Cc: Vladimir V.
