684 * rcu_read_lock() - mark the beginning of an RCU read-side critical section
686 * When synchronize_rcu() is invoked on one CPU while other CPUs
687 * are within RCU read-side critical sections, then the
688 * synchronize_rcu() is guaranteed to block until after all the other
689 * CPUs exit their critical sections. Similarly, if call_rcu() is invoked
690 * on one CPU while other CPUs are within RCU read-side critical
691 * sections, invocation of the corresponding RCU callback is deferred
692 * until after the all the other CPUs exit their critical sections.
694 * Note, however, that RCU callbacks are permitted to run concurrently
695 * with new RCU read-side critical sections. One way that this can happen
696 * is via the following sequence of events: (1) CPU 0 enters an RCU
697 * read-side critical section, (2) CPU 1 invokes call_rcu() to register
698 * an RCU callback, (3) CPU 0 exits the RCU read-side critical section,
699 * (4) CPU 2 enters a RCU read-side critical section, (5) the RCU
700 * callback is invoked. This is legal, because the RCU read-side critical
701 * section that was running concurrently with the call_rcu() (and which
702 * therefore might be referencing something that the corresponding RCU
703 * callback would free up) has completed before the corresponding
704 * RCU callback is invoked.
706 * RCU read-side critical sections may be nested. Any deferred actions
707 * will be deferred until the outermost RCU read-side critical section
710 * You can avoid reading and understanding the next paragraph by
711 * following this rule: don't put anything in an rcu_read_lock() RCU
712 * read-side critical section that would block in a !PREEMPT kernel.
713 * But if you want the full story, read on!
715 * In non-preemptible RCU implementations (TREE_RCU and TINY_RCU), it
716 * is illegal to block while in an RCU read-side critical section. In
717 * preemptible RCU implementations (TREE_PREEMPT_RCU and TINY_PREEMPT_RCU)
718 * in CONFIG_PREEMPT kernel builds, RCU read-side critical sections may
719 * be preempted, but explicit blocking is illegal. Finally, in preemptible
720 * RCU implementations in real-time (CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT) kernel builds,
721 * RCU read-side critical sections may be preempted and they may also
722 * block, but only when acquiring spinlocks that are subject to priority
