135 * rcu_read_lock - mark the beginning of an RCU read-side critical section.
136 *
9b06e818 137 * When synchronize_rcu() is invoked on one CPU while other CPUs
1da177e4 138 * are within RCU read-side critical sections, then the
9b06e818 139 * synchronize_rcu() is guaranteed to block until after all the other
1da177e4
LT
140 * CPUs exit their critical sections. Similarly, if call_rcu() is invoked
141 * on one CPU while other CPUs are within RCU read-side critical
142 * sections, invocation of the corresponding RCU callback is deferred
143 * until after the all the other CPUs exit their critical sections.
144 *
145 * Note, however, that RCU callbacks are permitted to run concurrently
146 * with RCU read-side critical sections. One way that this can happen
147 * is via the following sequence of events: (1) CPU 0 enters an RCU
148 * read-side critical section, (2) CPU 1 invokes call_rcu() to register
149 * an RCU callback, (3) CPU 0 exits the RCU read-side critical section,
150 * (4) CPU 2 enters a RCU read-side critical section, (5) the RCU
151 * callback is invoked. This is legal, because the RCU read-side critical
152 * section that was running concurrently with the call_rcu() (and which
153 * therefore might be referencing something that the corresponding RCU
154 * callback would free up) has completed before the corresponding
155 * RCU callback is invoked.
156 *
157 * RCU read-side critical sections may be nested. Any deferred actions
158 * will be deferred until the outermost RCU read-side critical section
159 * completes.
160 *
161 * It is illegal to block while in an RCU read-side critical section.

176 * Of course, writers must coordinate with each other. The normal
