From: Paul E. McKenney
Date: Wed Aug 31 2022 - 14:06:25 EST


Hello!

This series contains documentation updates:

1. Emphasize the need for explicit RCU read-side markers.

2. Call out queue_rcu_work() for blocking RCU callbacks.

3. Use rcu_barrier() to rate-limit RCU callbacks.

4. Fix list: rcu_access_pointer() is not lockdep-checked.

5. Update rcu_access_pointer() advice in rcu_dereference.rst.

6. SLAB_TYPESAFE_BY_RCU uses cannot rely on spinlocks.

7. Update LWN article URLs and add 2019 article, courtesy of
Shao-Tse Hung.

Thanx, Paul
