Subject: [PATCH 7/5] tracing: Make sure rcu_irq_enter() can work for trace_*_rcuidle() trace events
Date: Fri, 7 Apr 2017 13:06:15 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170407130615.2309b96d@gandalf.local.home> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170407140106.051135969@goodmis.org>

From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Stack tracing discovered that there's a small location inside the RCU
infrastructure that calling rcu_irq_enter() does not work. As trace events
use rcu_irq_enter() it must make sure that it is functionable. A check
against rcu_irq_enter_disabled() is added with a WARN_ON_ONCE() as no trace
event should ever be used in that part of RCU. If the warning is triggered,
then the trace event is ignored.
