Fork of alistair23 Linux kernel for reMarkable from https://github.com/alistair23/linux
![]() RCU currently uses two different mechanisms for tracking irqs and NMIs. This is unnecessary complexity: Given that NMIs can nest and given that RCU's tracking handles such nesting, the NMI tracking mechanism can also be used to track irqs. This commit therefore defines rcu_irq_enter() in terms of rcu_nmi_enter() and rcu_irq_exit() in terms of rcu_nmi_exit(). Unfortunately, callers must still distinguish between the irq and NMI functions because additional actions are taken when an irq interrupts idle or nohz_full usermode execution, and these actions cannot always be taken from NMI handlers.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
