[PATCH v2 rcu/dev 1/2] rcu: Track laziness during boot and suspend

From: Joel Fernandes (Google)
Date: Wed Jan 11 2023 - 19:52:41 EST


During boot and suspend/resume, it is desired to prevent RCU laziness from
effecting performance and in some cases failures like with suspend.

Track whether RCU laziness is to be ignored or not, in kernels with
CONFIG_RCU_LAZY enabled. We do such tracking for expedited-RCU already, however
since Android currently expedites synchronous_rcu() always, we cannot rely on
that. The next patch ignores laziness hints based on this tracking.

Paul, could we take this and the next one for 6.2 -rc cycle?

I also booted debian Linux and verified the flag is reset correctly after boot
completes. Thanks.
