Next: [PATCH tip/core/urgent 2/3] rcu: fix scope of wake_affine()'s new RCU read-side critical section
From: Paul E. McKenney on 15 Jun 2010 18:40 From: Daniel J Blueman <daniel.blueman(a)gmail.com> With 2.6.35-rc1 and your patch in the context below, we still see "include/linux/cgroup.h:534 invoked rcu_dereference_check() without protection!", so need this additional patch: Acquire read-side RCU lock around task_group() calls, addressing "include/linux/cgroup.h:534 invoked rcu_dereference_check() without protection!" warning.
