If a CPU is executing a long series of non-sleeping system calls, RCU grace periods can be delayed for on the order of a couple hundred milliseconds. This is normally not a problem, but if each system call does a call_rcu(), those callbacks can stack up. RCU will eventually notice this callback storm, but use of rcu_request_urgent_qs_task() allows the code invoking call_rcu() to give RCU a heads up. This function is not for general use, not yet, anyway. Reported-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@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.
