2024-08-15rcu: Rename rcu_implicit_dynticks_qs() into rcu_watching_snap_recheck()Valentin Schneider-1/+1
The context_tracking.state RCU_DYNTICKS subvariable has been renamed to RCU_WATCHING, drop the dyntick reference and update the name of this helper to express that it rechecks rdp->watching_snap after an earlier rcu_watching_snap_save().

2024-08-15rcu: Rename dyntick_save_progress_counter() into rcu_watching_snap_save()Valentin Schneider-1/+1
The context_tracking.state RCU_DYNTICKS subvariable has been renamed to RCU_WATCHING, and the 'dynticks' prefix can be dropped without losing any meaning.

2023-10-04rcu: Standardize explicit CPU-hotplug callsFrederic Weisbecker-2/+2
rcu_report_dead() and rcutree_migrate_callbacks() have their headers in rcupdate.h while those are pure rcutree calls, like the other CPU-hotplug functions. Also rcu_cpu_starting() and rcu_report_dead() have different naming conventions while they mirror each other's effects. Fix the headers and propose a naming that relates both functions and aligns with the prefix of other rcutree CPU-hotplug functions. Reviewed-by: Paul E.
