There is a need for a non-blocking polling interface for RCU grace periods, so this commit supplies start_poll_synchronize_rcu() and poll_state_synchronize_rcu() for this purpose. Note that the existing get_state_synchronize_rcu() may be used if future grace periods are inevitable (perhaps due to a later call_rcu() invocation). The new start_poll_synchronize_rcu() is to be used if future grace periods might not otherwise happen. Finally, poll_state_synchronize_rcu() provides a lockless check for a grace period having elapsed since the corresponding call to either of the get_state_synchronize_rcu() or start_poll_synchronize_rcu(). As with get_state_synchronize_rcu(), the return value from either get_state_synchronize_rcu() or start_poll_synchronize_rcu() is passed in to a later call to either poll_state_synchronize_rcu() or the existing (might_sleep) cond_synchronize_rcu(). [ paulmck: Revert cond_synchronize_rcu() to might_sleep() per Frederic Weisbecker feedback. ] Reviewed-by: Frederic Weisbecker <frederic@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Paul E.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
