Pull RCU updates from Paul McKenney: "Documentation updates: - Update whatisRCU.rst and checklist.rst for recent RCU API additions - Fix RCU documentation formatting and typos - Replace dead Ottawa Linux Symposium links in RTFP.txt Miscellaneous RCU updates: - Document that rcu_barrier() hurries RCU_LAZY callbacks - Remove redundant interrupt disabling from rcu_preempt_deferred_qs_handler() - Move list_for_each_rcu from list.h to rculist.h, and adjust the include directive in kernel/cgroup/dmem.c accordingly - Make initial set of changes to accommodate upcoming system_percpu_wq changes SRCU updates: - Create an srcu_read_lock_fast_notrace() for eventual use in tracing, including adding guards - Document the reliance on per-CPU operations as implicit RCU readers in __srcu_read_{,un}lock_fast() - Document the srcu_flip() function's memory-barrier D's relationship to SRCU-fast readers - Remove a redundant preempt_disable() and preempt_enable() pair from srcu_gp_start_if_needed() Torture-test updates: - Fix jitter.sh spin time so that it actually varies as advertised. It is still quite coarse-grained, but at least it does now vary - Update torture.sh help text to include the not-so-new --do-normal parameter, which permits (for example) testing KCSAN kernels without doing non-debug kernels - Fix a number of false-positive diagnostics that were being triggered by rcutorture starting before boot completed.

list.h: add missing kernel-doc for basic macros

2025-09-14T00:32:48+00:00

kernel-doc for the basic LIST_HEAD() and LIST_HEAD_INIT() macros has been missing forever (i.e., since git). Add them for completeness.

rculist: move list_for_each_rcu() to where it belongs

2025-08-25T17:13:26+00:00

The list_for_each_rcu() relies on the rcu_dereference() API which is not provided by the list.h. At the same time list.h is a low-level basic header that must not have dependencies like RCU, besides the fact of the potential circular dependencies in some cases. With all that said, move RCU related API to the rculist.h where it belongs. Signed-off-by: Andy Shevchenko Reviewed-by: Simona Vetter Reviewed-by: "Paul E.

list: remove redundant 'extern' for function prototypes

2025-05-12T00:54:14+00:00

The 'extern' keyword is redundant for function prototypes. list.h never used them and new code in general is better without them. Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20250502121742.3997529-1-andriy.shevchenko@linux.intel.com Signed-off-by: Andy Shevchenko Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton

2024-02-22T23:38:51+00:00

Add a generic hlist_count_nodes() function and use it in two drivers. This patch (of 3): Add a function to count nodes in a hlist. hlist_count_nodes() is similar to list_count_nodes().

net: page_pool: record pools per netdev

2023-11-28T14:48:39+00:00

Link the page pools with netdevs. This needs to be netns compatible so we have two options. Either we record the pools per netns and have to worry about moving them as the netdev gets moved. Or we record them directly on the netdev so they move with the netdev without any extra work. Implement the latter option. Since pools may outlast netdev we need a place to store orphans. In time honored tradition use loopback for this purpose. Reviewed-by: Mina Almasry Reviewed-by: Eric Dumazet Acked-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni
