This minimalist implementation is specific to use with preemption disabled, but can be extended further as needed. Each HP domain defines a fixed number of hazard pointer slots (nr_cpus) across the entire system. Its main benefit over RCU is that it allows fast reclaim of HP-protected pointers without needing to wait for a grace period. It also allows the hazard pointer scan to call a user-defined callback to retire a hazard pointer slot immediately if needed. This callback may, for instance, issue an IPI to the relevant CPU. There are a few possible use-cases for this in the Linux kernel: - Improve performance of mm_count by replacing lazy active mm by HP. - Guarantee object existence on pointer dereference to use refcount: - replace locking used for that purpose in some drivers, - replace RCU + inc_not_zero pattern, - rtmutex: Improve situations where locks need to be taken in reverse dependency chain order by guaranteeing existence of first and second locks in traversal order, allowing them to be locked in the correct order (which is reverse from traversal order) rather than try-lock+retry on nested lock.
