659 * @p: The pointer to read, prior to dereferencing
660 * @c: The conditions under which the dereference will take place
662 * Similar to rcu_dereference_check(), but omits the sparse checking.
663 * This allows rcu_dereference_index_check() to be used on integers,
664 * which can then be used as array indices. Attempting to use
665 * rcu_dereference_check() on an integer will give compiler warnings

667 * the RCU-protected pointer. Dereferencing integers is not something
668 * that even gcc will put up with.
670 * Note that this function does not implicitly check for RCU read-side

686 * pointer from changing. Please note that this primitive does -not-
687 * prevent the compiler from repeating this reference or combining it
688 * with other references, so it should not be used without protection
689 * of appropriate locks.
691 * This function is only for update-side use. Using this function

724 * rcu_read_lock() - mark the beginning of an RCU read-side critical section
726 * When synchronize_rcu() is invoked on one CPU while other CPUs
727 * are within RCU read-side critical sections, then the
728 * synchronize_rcu() is guaranteed to block until after all the other
729 * CPUs exit their critical sections. Similarly, if call_rcu() is invoked
730 * on one CPU while other CPUs are within RCU read-side critical
731 * sections, invocation of the corresponding RCU callback is deferred
732 * until after the all the other CPUs exit their critical sections.
734 * Note, however, that RCU callbacks are permitted to run concurrently
735 * with new RCU read-side critical sections. One way that this can happen
736 * is via the following sequence of events: (1) CPU 0 enters an RCU
737 * read-side critical section, (2) CPU 1 invokes call_rcu() to register
738 * an RCU callback, (3) CPU 0 exits the RCU read-side critical section,
739 * (4) CPU 2 enters a RCU read-side critical section, (5) the RCU
740 * callback is invoked. This is legal, because the RCU read-side critical
741 * section that was running concurrently with the call_rcu() (and which
742 * therefore might be referencing something that the corresponding RCU
743 * callback would free up) has completed before the corresponding
744 * RCU callback is invoked.
746 * RCU read-side critical sections may be nested. Any deferred actions
747 * will be deferred until the outermost RCU read-side critical section
750 * You can avoid reading and understanding the next paragraph by
751 * following this rule: don't put anything in an rcu_read_lock() RCU
752 * read-side critical section that would block in a !PREEMPT kernel.
753 * But if you want the full story, read on!
755 * In non-preemptible RCU implementations (TREE_RCU and TINY_RCU), it
756 * is illegal to block while in an RCU read-side critical section. In
757 * preemptible RCU implementations (TREE_PREEMPT_RCU and TINY_PREEMPT_RCU)
758 * in CONFIG_PREEMPT kernel builds, RCU read-side critical sections may
759 * be preempted, but explicit blocking is illegal. Finally, in preemptible
760 * RCU implementations in real-time (with -rt patchset) kernel builds,
761 * RCU read-side critical sections may be preempted and they may also
762 * block, but only when acquiring spinlocks that are subject to priority

986 * encodes the offset of the rcu_head structure within the base structure.
987 * Because the functions are not allowed in the low-order 4096 bytes of
