Fork of alistair23 Linux kernel for reMarkable from https://github.com/alistair23/linux
![]() If a nohz_full CPU is looping in the kernel, the scheduling-clock tick might nevertheless remain disabled. In !PREEMPT kernels, this can prevent RCU's attempts to enlist the aid of that CPU's executions of cond_resched(), which can in turn result in an arbitrarily delayed grace period and thus an OOM. RCU therefore needs a way to enable a holdout nohz_full CPU's scheduler-clock interrupt. This commit therefore provides a new TICK_DEP_BIT_RCU value which RCU can pass to tick_dep_set_cpu() and friends to force on the scheduler-clock interrupt for a specified CPU or task. In some cases, rcutorture needs to turn on the scheduler-clock tick, so this commit also exports the relevant symbols to GPL-licensed modules.

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.
