723 * @cond_func: A callback function that is passed a cpu id and
724 * the the info parameter. The function is called
725 * with preemption disabled. The function should
726 * return a blooean value indicating whether to IPI
727 * the specified CPU.
728 * @func: The function to run on all applicable CPUs.
729 * This must be fast and non-blocking.
730 * @info: An arbitrary pointer to pass to both functions.
731 * @wait: If true, wait (atomically) until function has
732 * completed on other CPUs.
733 * @gfp_flags: GFP flags to use when allocating the cpumask
734 * used internally by the function.
736 * The function might sleep if the GFP flags indicates a non
737 * atomic allocation is allowed.
739 * Preemption is disabled to protect against CPUs going offline but not online.
740 * CPUs going online during the call will not be seen or sent an IPI.
