Subject: [PATCH 189/352] rcutree/rcu_bh_qs: Disable irq while calling
rcu_preempt_qs()
Any callers to the function rcu_preempt_qs() must disable irqs in
order to protect the assignment to ->rcu_read_unlock_special. In
RT case, rcu_bh_qs() as the wrapper of rcu_preempt_qs() is called
in some scenarios where irq is enabled, like this path,
do_single_softirq()
|
+ local_irq_enable();
+ handle_softirq()
| |
| + rcu_bh_qs()
| |
| + rcu_preempt_qs()
|
+ local_irq_disable()
So here we'd better disable irq directly inside of rcu_bh_qs() to
fix this, otherwise the kernel may be freezable sometimes as
observed. And especially this way is also kind and safe for the
potential rcu_bh_qs() usage elsewhere in the future.
