Re: synchronize_rcu vs. rcu_barrier

What's the difference between synchronize_rcu() and rcu_barrier() (new function used only by reiser4 code)? From the scant documentation it seems like they do the same thing. I'm now happily running 2.6.13-rc4-rt-v0.7.52-14-reiser4 which I compiled by adding #define rcu_barrier

Sorry about that, we start to talk about it in private with Dave. But, I did not really it since Keenan Pepper told me it was due to a bug in the XFree 4.3 driver. I am now using Xorg and didn't see any DRM problem since. However, I can't confirm that my bug was surely due to the XFree driver
