Yes, and Dr. McKenney continues to update it. A link to the latest update can be found here: http://paulmck.livejournal.com/38299.html

Appendix C of this book contains one of the best discussions of cache coherency and memory visibility issues available on the internet.

Dr. McKenney is one of the co-inventors (or arguably, one of many inventors over many years) of the Read-Copy Update algorithm used in the Linux kernel.
