18 * Notifier chains are of four types:
20 * Atomic notifier chains: Chain callbacks run in interrupt/atomic
21 * context. Callouts are not allowed to block.
22 * Blocking notifier chains: Chain callbacks run in process context.
23 * Callouts are allowed to block.
24 * Raw notifier chains: There are no restrictions on callbacks,
25 * registration, or unregistration. All locking and protection
26 * must be provided by the caller.
27 * SRCU notifier chains: A variant of blocking notifier chains, with
28 * the same restrictions.
30 * atomic_notifier_chain_register() may be called from an atomic context,
31 * but blocking_notifier_chain_register() and srcu_notifier_chain_register()
32 * must be called from a process context. Ditto for the corresponding
33 * _unregister() routines.
35 * atomic_notifier_chain_unregister(), blocking_notifier_chain_unregister(),
36 * and srcu_notifier_chain_unregister() _must not_ be called from within
37 * the call chain.
39 * SRCU notifier chains are an alternative form of blocking notifier chains.
40 * They use SRCU (Sleepable Read-Copy Update) instead of rw-semaphores for
41 * protection of the chain links. This means there is _very_ low overhead
42 * in srcu_notifier_call_chain(): no cache bounces and no memory barriers.
43 * As compensation, srcu_notifier_chain_unregister() is rather expensive.
44 * SRCU notifier chains should be used when the chain will be called very
45 * often but notifier_blocks will seldom be removed. Also, SRCU notifier
46 * chains are slightly more difficult to use because they require special
47 * runtime initialization.
