  12Goals and Theory of Operation
  13
  14The primary goal of this feature is to reduce the kernel boot time,
  15by doing various independent hardware delays and discovery operations
  16decoupled and not strictly serialized.
  17
  18More specifically, the asynchronous function call concept allows
  19certain operations (primarily during system boot) to happen
  20asynchronously, out of order, while these operations still
  21have their externally visible parts happen sequentially and in-order.
  22(not unlike how out-of-order CPUs retire their instructions in order)
  23
  24Key to the asynchronous function call implementation is the concept of
  25a "sequence cookie" (which, although it has an abstracted type, can be
  26thought of as a monotonically incrementing number).
  27
  28The async core will assign each scheduled event such a sequence cookie and
  29pass this to the called functions.
  30
  31The asynchronously called function should before doing a globally visible
  32operation, such as registering device numbers, call the
  33async_synchronize_cookie() function and pass in its own cookie. The
  34async_synchronize_cookie() function will make sure that all asynchronous
  35operations that were scheduled prior to the operation corresponding with the
  36cookie have completed.
  37
  38Subsystem/driver initialization code that scheduled asynchronous probe
  39functions, but which shares global resources with other drivers/subsystems
  40that do not use the asynchronous call feature, need to do a full
  41synchronization with the async_synchronize_full() function, before returning
  42from their init function. This is to maintain strict ordering between the
  43asynchronous and synchronous parts of the kernel.
