36 * explain all the RCU secrets here, did you?)

44 * aggressive compiler could have the same effect:
45 * http://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/lguest/2009-July/001560.html

69 * One of the more tricksy tricks in the Linux Kernel is a technique called
70 * Read Copy Update. Since one point of lguest is to teach lguest journeyers
71 * about kernel coding, I use it here. (In case you're curious, other purposes

79 * than this code does.
81 * We allocate a brand new one-larger array, copy the old one and add our new
82 * element. Then we make the lg eventfd pointer point to the new array.
83 * That's the easy part: now we need to free the old one, but we need to make
84 * sure no slow CPU somewhere is still looking at it. That's what
85 * synchronize_rcu does for us: waits until every CPU has indicated that it has
86 * moved on to know it's no longer using the old one.
