McKenney <paulmck@kernel.org> We have some fun conflicts between this series and Frederic's context-tracking series. But it looks like these can be resolved by: 1. A patch on top of Frederic's series that provides the old rcu_*() names for the functions now prefixed with ct_*() such as ct_idle_exit(). 2. Another patch on top of Frederic's series that takes the changes remaining from this patch, shown below. Frederic's series uses raw_local_irq_save() and raw_local_irq_restore(), which can then be removed. Or is there a better way to do this? Thanx, Paul ------------------------------------------------------------------------ commit f64cee8c159e9863a74594efe3d33fb513a6a7b5 Author: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Date: Tue Jun 14 17:24:43 2022 -0700 context_tracking: Interrupts always disabled for ct_idle_exit() Now that the idle-loop cleanups have ensured that rcu_idle_exit() is always invoked with interrupts disabled, remove the interrupt disabling in favor of a debug check.

Current rcu_idle_exit() is terminally broken because it uses local_irq_{save,restore}(), which are traced which uses RCU. However, now that all the callers are sure to have IRQs disabled, we can remove these calls. Signed-off-by: Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org> Acked-by: Paul E.
