The following pattern is currently not well supported by RCU: 1. Make data element inaccessible to RCU readers. 2. Do work that probably lasts for more than one grace period. 3. Do something to make sure RCU readers in flight before #1 above have completed. Here are some things that could currently be done: a. Do a synchronize_rcu() unconditionally at either #1 or #3 above. This works, but imposes needless work and latency. b. Post an RCU callback at #1 above that does a wakeup, then wait for the wakeup at #3. This works well, but likely results in an extra unneeded grace period. Open-coding this is also a bit more semi-tricky code than would be good. This commit therefore adds get_state_synchronize_rcu() and cond_synchronize_rcu() APIs. Call get_state_synchronize_rcu() at #1 above and pass its return value to cond_synchronize_rcu() at #3 above. This results in a call to synchronize_rcu() if no grace period has elapsed between #1 and #3, but requires only a load, comparison, and memory barrier if a full grace period did elapse.
