From 5a6db1867ba2ede72c533f9879af57a18580ce92 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Frederic Weisbecker Date: Wed, 11 Jul 2012 20:26:32 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] rcu: Ignore userspace extended quiescent state by default By default we don't want to enter into RCU extended quiescent state while in userspace because doing this produces some overhead (eg: use of syscall slowpath). Set it off by default and ready to run when some feature like adaptive tickless need it.
