A pair of matching srcu_read_lock_fast() and srcu_read_unlock_fast() invocations must take place within the same context, for example, within the same task. Otherwise, lockdep complains, as is the right thing to do for most use cases. However, there are use cases involving tracing (for example, uretprobes) in which an SRCU reader needs to begin in one task and end in a timer handler, which might interrupt some other task. This commit therefore supplies the semaphore-like srcu_down_read_fast() and srcu_up_read_fast() functions, which act like srcu_read_lock_fast() and srcu_read_unlock_fast(), but permitting srcu_up_read_fast() to be invoked in a different context than was the matching srcu_down_read_fast(). Neither srcu_down_read_fast() nor srcu_up_read_fast() may be invoked from an NMI handler. Reported-by: Andrii Nakryiko <andrii@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 reStructuredText 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.
