Earlier versions of Tree SRCU were subject to a counter overflow bug that could theoretically result in too-short grace periods. This commit eliminates this problem by adding an update-side memory barrier. The short explanation is that if the updater sums the unlock counts too late to see a given __srcu_read_unlock() increment, that CPU's next __srcu_read_lock() must see the new value of ->srcu_idx, thus incrementing the other bank of counters. This eliminates the possibility of destructive counter overflow as long as the srcu_read_lock() nesting level does not exceed floor(ULONG_MAX/NR_CPUS/2), which should be an eminently reasonable nesting limit, especially on 64-bit systems.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
