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

40 * aggressive compiler could have the same effect:
41 * http://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/lguest/2009-July/001560.html
43 * So play safe, use rcu_dereference to get the rcu-protected pointer:
45 map = rcu_dereference(cpu->lg->eventfds);
47 * Simple array search: even if they add an eventfd while we do this,
48 * we'll continue to use the old array and just won't see the new one.

65 * One of the more tricksy tricks in the Linux Kernel is a technique called
66 * Read Copy Update. Since one point of lguest is to teach lguest journeyers
67 * about kernel coding, I use it here. (In case you're curious, other purposes
68 * include learning about virtualization and instilling a deep appreciation for

72 * add new eventfds without ever blocking readers from accessing the array.
73 * The current Launcher only does this during boot, so that never happens. But
74 * Read Copy Update is cool, and adding a lock risks damaging even more puppies
75 * than this code does.
77 * We allocate a brand new one-larger array, copy the old one and add our new
78 * element. Then we make the lg eventfd pointer point to the new array.
79 * That's the easy part: now we need to free the old one, but we need to make
80 * sure no slow CPU somewhere is still looking at it. That's what
81 * synchronize_rcu does for us: waits until every CPU has indicated that it has
82 * moved on to know it's no longer using the old one.
