Offloading and de-offloading RCU callback processes must be done carefully. There must never be a time at which callback processing is disabled because the task driving the offloading or de-offloading might be preempted or otherwise stalled at that point in time, which would result in OOM due to calbacks piling up indefinitely. This implies that there will be times during which a given CPU's callbacks might be concurrently invoked by both that CPU's RCU_SOFTIRQ handler (or, equivalently, that CPU's rcuc kthread) and by that CPU's rcuo kthread. This situation could fatally confuse both rcu_barrier() and the CPU-hotplug offlining process, so these must be excluded during any concurrent-callback-invocation period. In addition, during times of concurrent callback invocation, changes to ->cblist must be protected both as needed for RCU_SOFTIRQ and as needed for the rcuo kthread. This commit therefore defines and documents the states for a state machine that coordinates offloading and deoffloading.

|
|
* Callbacks whose grace period has elapsed, and thus can be invoked.

|
|
* [*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.

* 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).
