sched/completions/Documentation: Add recommendation for dynamic and ONSTACK completions
To prevent dynamic completion objects from being de-allocated while still in use, add a recommendation to embed them in long lived data structures. Also add a note for the on-stack case that emphasizes the dangers of the limited scope, and recommends dynamic allocation if scope limitations are not clearly understood. [ mingo: Minor touch-ups of the text, expanded it a bit to make the warnings Nicholas added more prominent. ] Signed-off-by: Nicholas Mc Guire <hofrat@osadl.org> Cc: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Cc: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org> Cc: Thomas Gleixner <tglx@linutronix.de> Cc: john.garry@huawei.com Link: http://lkml.kernel.org/r/1539697539-24055-1-git-send-email-hofrat@osadl.org Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@kernel.org>
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 Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
