      "message": "[PATCH] add rcu_barrier() synchronization point\n\nThis introduces a new interface - rcu_barrier() which waits until all\nthe RCUs queued until this call have been completed.\n\nReiser4 needs this, because we do more than just freeing memory object\nin our RCU callback: we also remove it from the list hanging off\nsuper-block.  This means, that before freeing reiser4-specific portion\nof super-block (during umount) we have to wait until all pending RCU\ncallbacks are executed.\n\nThe only change of reiser4 made to the original patch, is exporting of\nrcu_barrier().\n\nCc: Hans Reiser \u003creiser@namesys.com\u003e\nCc: Vladimir V.

      "message": "[PATCH] RCU torture-testing kernel module\n\nThis patch is a rewrite of the one submitted on October 1st, using modules\n(http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l\u003dlinux-kernel\u0026m\u003d112819093522998\u0026w\u003d2).\n\nThis rewrite adds a tristate CONFIG_RCU_TORTURE_TEST, which enables an\nintense torture test of the RCU infratructure.  This is needed due to the\ncontinued changes to the RCU infrastructure to accommodate dynamic ticks,\nCPU hotplug, realtime, and so on.  Most of the code is in a separate file\nthat is compiled only if the CONFIG variable is set.  Documentation on how\nto run the test and interpret the output is also included.\n\nThis code has been tested on i386 and ppc64, and an earlier version of the\ncode has received extensive testing on a number of architectures as part of\nthe PREEMPT_RT patchset.\n\nSigned-off-by: \"Paul E.
