This commit causes a splat if RCU is idle and a request for a new grace period is ignored for more than one second. This splat normally indicates that some code path asked for a new grace period, but failed to wake up the RCU grace-period kthread. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> [ paulmck: Fix bug located by Dan Carpenter and his static checker. ] [ paulmck: Fix self-deadlock bug located 0day test robot. ] [ paulmck: Disable unless CONFIG_PROVE_RCU=y. ]
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
