Cover letter [PATCH RFC 0/9] RCU: Preemptible RCU
Work in progress, still not for inclusion. But code now complete!
This is a respin of the following prior posting:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/9/5/268
This release adds an additional patch that adds fixes to comments and RCU documentation, along with one macro being renamed. The rcutorture patch has a modification to make it a bit more vicious to priority boosting (though the current design relies on -rt latencies for much of the priority-boost torturing effectiveness in this case -- run the test in presence of CPU hotplug operations to get the same effect in -mm). Next step is rebasing this to a more recent version of Linux.
Thanx, Paul
