Linux kernel source tree
5648d65912
Currently rcu_check_gp_start_stall() complains if a grace period takes too long to start, where "too long" is roughly one RCU CPU stall-warning interval. This has worked well, but there are some debugging Kconfig options (such as CONFIG_EFI_PGT_DUMP=y) that can make booting take a very long time, so much so that the stall-warning interval has expired before RCU's grace-period kthread has even been spawned. This commit therefore resets the rcu_state.gp_req_activity and rcu_state.gp_activity timestamps just before the grace-period kthread is spawned, and modifies the checks and adds ordering to ensure that if rcu_check_gp_start_stall() sees that the grace-period kthread has been spawned, that it will also see the resets applied to the rcu_state.gp_req_activity and rcu_state.gp_activity timestamps.

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.
