The rcu_node_tree.h and rcu_segcblist.h header files in the include/linux directory might appear at first sight to be internal to the RCU implementation. However, the definitions in these files are needed to determine the size of TREE SRCU's srcu_struct structure, so they must be externally visible, which is why they live in include/linux. This commit adds comments to this effect to those files. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

|
|
* Index values for segments in rcu_segcblist structure.
|
|
*
|
|
* The segments are as follows:
|
|
*
|
|
* [head, *tails[RCU_DONE_TAIL]):
|
|
* Callbacks whose grace period has elapsed, and thus can be invoked.
|
|
* [*tails[RCU_DONE_TAIL], *tails[RCU_WAIT_TAIL]):
|
|
* Callbacks waiting for the current GP from the current CPU's viewpoint.
|
|
* [*tails[RCU_WAIT_TAIL], *tails[RCU_NEXT_READY_TAIL]):
|
|
* Callbacks that arrived before the next GP started, again from
|
|
* the current CPU's viewpoint. These can be handled by the next GP.
|
|
* [*tails[RCU_NEXT_READY_TAIL], *tails[RCU_NEXT_TAIL]):
|
|
* Callbacks that might have arrived after the next GP started.
|
|
* There is some uncertainty as to when a given GP starts and
|
|
* ends, but a CPU knows the exact times if it is the one starting
|
|
* or ending the GP. Other CPUs know that the previous GP ends
|
|
* before the next one starts.
|
|
*
|
|
* Note that RCU_WAIT_TAIL cannot be empty unless RCU_NEXT_READY_TAIL is also
|
|
* empty.
|
|
*
|
|
* The ->gp_seq[] array contains the grace-period number at which the
|
|
* corresponding segment of callbacks will be ready to invoke. A given
|
|
* element of this array is meaningful only when the corresponding segment
|
|
* is non-empty, and it is never valid for RCU_DONE_TAIL (whose callbacks
|
|
* are already ready to invoke) or for RCU_NEXT_TAIL (whose callbacks have
|
|
* not yet been assigned a grace-period number).
