52 * @rhp: Pointer to rcu_head in rcu_sync structure to use for synchronization
54 * This function is passed to call_rcu() function by rcu_sync_enter() and

58 * If it is called by rcu_sync_enter() it signals that all the readers were

62 * have taken place in the meantime, so that closely spaced rcu_sync_enter()
63 * and rcu_sync_exit() pairs need not wait for a grace period.
65 * If another rcu_sync_enter() is invoked before the grace period
66 * ended, reset state to allow the next rcu_sync_exit() to let the
67 * readers back onto their fastpaths (after a grace period). If both
68 * another rcu_sync_enter() and its matching rcu_sync_exit() are invoked
69 * before the grace period ended, re-invoke call_rcu() on behalf of that

117 * period, however, closely spaced calls to rcu_sync_enter() can
