Linux kernel source tree
The current code will scan the entirety of each per-CPU list of exiting tasks in ->rtp_exit_list with interrupts disabled. This is normally just fine, because each CPU typically won't have very many tasks in this state. However, if a large number of tasks block late in do_exit(), these lists could be arbitrarily long. Low probability, perhaps, but it really could happen. This commit therefore occasionally re-enables interrupts while traversing these lists, inserting a dummy element to hold the current place in the list. In kernels built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y, this re-enabling happens after each list element is processed, otherwise every one-to-two jiffies.

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.
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.
