D.1.4 SRCU Summary

SRCU provides an RCU-like set of primitives that permit general sleeping in the SRCU read-side critical sections. However, it is important to note that SRCU has been used only in prototype code, though it has passed the RCU torture test. It will be very interesting to see what use, if any, SRCU sees in the future.
