From fdbb9b315ce40922f3a8d2b8352776d7bc963d84 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Tue, 20 Dec 2016 07:17:58 -0800 Subject: rcu: Make rcu_cpu_starting() use its "cpu" argument The rcu_cpu_starting() function uses this_cpu_ptr() to locate the incoming CPU's rcu_data structure. This works for the boot CPU and for all CPUs onlined after rcu_init() executes (during very early boot). Currently, this is the full set of CPUs, so all is well. But if anyone ever parallelizes boot before rcu_init() time, it will fail. This commit therefore substitutes the rcu_cpu_starting() function's this_cpu_pointer() for per_cpu_ptr(), future-proofing the code and (arguably) improving readability. This commit inadvertently fixes a latent bug: If there ever had been more than just the boot CPU online at rcu_init() time, the old code would not initialize the non-boot CPUs, but rather would repeatedly initialize the boot CPU.
