From 911af505ef407c2511106c224dd640f882f0f590 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Paul E. McKenney" Date: Mon, 11 Feb 2013 10:23:27 -0800 Subject: rcu: Provide compile-time control for no-CBs CPUs Currently, the only way to specify no-CBs CPUs is via the rcu_nocbs kernel command-line parameter. This is inconvenient in some cases, particularly for randconfig testing, so this commit adds a new set of kernel configuration parameters. CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_NONE (the default) retains the old behavior, CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_ZERO offloads callback processing from CPU 0 (along with any other CPUs specified by the rcu_nocbs boot-time parameter), and CONFIG_RCU_NOCB_CPU_ALL offloads callback processing from all CPUs.
