Concurrent resizing and modification of a first RCU-protected hash table includes allocating a second RCU-protected hash table, populating it by linking each hash bucket of the second hash table to all hash buckets of the first hash table containing elements that hash to the second hash table bucket, and publishing the second hash table. If the modifying comprises insertion, a new element is inserted at the head of a corresponding bucket in the second hash table. If the modifying comprises deletion, then within an RCU read-side critical section: (1) all pointers in hash buckets of the first and second hash tables that reference the element being deleted are removed or redirected, and (2) the element is freed following a grace period that protects reader references to the deleted element. The first table is freed from memory after awaiting a grace period that protects reader references to the first hash table.
