* rcu: Rename cond_resched_rcu_qs() to cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs()Paul E. McKenney2018-05-151-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit e31d28b6ab8f ("trace: Eliminate cond_resched_rcu_qs() in favor of cond_resched()") substituted cond_resched() for the earlier call to cond_resched_rcu_qs(). However, the new-age cond_resched() does not do anything to help RCU-tasks grace periods because (1) RCU-tasks is only enabled when CONFIG_PREEMPT=y and (2) cond_resched() is a complete no-op when preemption is enabled. This situation results in hangs when running the trace benchmarks. A number of potential fixes were discussed on LKML (https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20180224151240.0d63a059@vmware.local.home), including making cond_resched() not be a no-op; making cond_resched() not be a no-op, but only when running tracing benchmarks; reverting the aforementioned commit (which works because cond_resched_rcu_qs() does provide an RCU-tasks quiescent state; and adding a call to the scheduler/RCU rcu_note_voluntary_context_switch() function. All were deemed unsatisfactory, either due to added cond_resched() overhead or due to magic functions inviting cargo culting. This commit renames cond_resched_rcu_qs() to cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs(), which provides a clear hint as to what this function is doing and why and where it should be used, and then replaces the call to cond_resched() with cond_resched_tasks_rcu_qs() in the trace benchmark's benchmark_event_kthread() function.

* torture: Eliminate torture_runnable and perf_runnablePaul E. McKenney2017-12-111-4/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The purpose of torture_runnable is to allow rcutorture and locktorture to be started and stopped via sysfs when they are built into the kernel (as in not compiled as loadable modules). However, the 0444 permissions for both instances of torture_runnable prevent this use case from ever being put into practice. Given that there have been no complaints about this deficiency, it is reasonable to conclude that no one actually makes use of this sysfs capability. The perf_runnable module parameter for rcuperf is in the same situation. This commit therefore removes both torture_runnable instances as well as perf_runnable.

* torture: Make stutter less vulnerable to compilers and racesPaul E. McKenney2017-12-111-16/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The stutter_wait() function repeatedly fetched stutter_pause_test, and should really just fetch it once on each pass. The races should be harmless, but why have the races? Also, the whole point of the value "2" for stutter_pause_test is to get everyone to start at very nearly the same time, but the value "2" was the first jiffy of the stutter rather than the last jiffy of the stutter. This commit rearranges the code to be more sensible. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
* torture: Suppress CPU stall warnings during shutdown ftrace dumpPaul E. McKenney2017-11-281-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | The torture_shutdown() function directly invokes ftrace_dump(), which can result in RCU CPU stall warnings when the ftrace buffer is large, which it usually is. This commit therefore invoks rcu_ftrace_dump() in place of ftrace_dump(), suppressing RCU CPU stall warnings during this time. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
* torture: Fix typo suppressing CPU-hotplug statisticsPaul E. McKenney2017-07-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | The torture status line contains a series of values preceded by "onoff:". The last value in that line, the one preceding the "HZ=" string, is always zero. The reason that it is always zero is that torture_offline() was incrementing the sum_offl pointer instead of the value that this pointer referenced. This commit therefore makes this increment operate on the statistic rather than the pointer to the statistic. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

* torture: Convert torture_shutdown() to hrtimerPaul E. McKenney2016-08-221-14/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Upcoming changes to the timer wheel introduce significant inaccuracy and possibly also an ultimate limit on timeout duration. This is a problem for the current implementation of torture_shutdown() because (1) shutdown times are user-specified, and can therefore be quite long, and (2) the torture scripting will kill a test instance that runs for more than a few minutes longer than scheduled. This commit therefore converts the torture_shutdown() timed waits to an hrtimer, thus avoiding too-short torture test runs as well as death by scripting. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

* torture: Address race in module cleanupDavidlohr Bueso2014-09-161-3/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When performing module cleanups by calling torture_cleanup() the 'torture_type' string in nullified However, callers are not necessarily done, and might still need to reference the variable. This impacts both rcutorture and locktorture, causing printing things like: [ 94.226618] (null)-torture: Stopping lock_torture_writer task [ 94.226624] (null)-torture: Stopping lock_torture_stats task Thus delay this operation until the very end of the cleanup process. The consequence (which shouldn't matter for this kid of program) is, of course, that we delay the window between rmmod and modprobing, for instance in module_torture_begin().

* rcutorture: Abstract torture_shutdown_notify()Paul E. McKenney2014-02-231-5/+24
| | | | | | | | | | Because handling the race between rmmod and system shutdown is not specific to RCU, this commit abstracts torture_shutdown_notify(), placing this code into kernel/torture.c. This change also allows fullstop_mutex to be private to kernel/torture.c. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Josh Triplett <josh@joshtriplett.org>
* rcutorture: Abstract torture-test cleanupPaul E. McKenney2014-02-231-2/+28
| | | | | | | | This commit creates a torture_cleanup() that handles the generic cleanup actions local to kernel/torture.c. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Josh Triplett <josh@joshtriplett.org>
* rcutorture: Abstract torture-test initializationPaul E. McKenney2014-02-231-0/+27
| | | | | | | | | | This commit creates torture_init_begin() and torture_init_end() functions to abstract locking and allow the torture_type and verbose variables in kernel/torture.o to become static. With a bit more abstraction, fullstop_mutex will also become static. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Josh Triplett <josh@joshtriplett.org>
* rcutorture: Abstract torture_onoff()Paul E. McKenney2014-02-231-0/+186
| | | | | | | | | Because online/offline torturing is not specific to RCU, this commit abstracts it into the kernel/torture.c module to allow other torture tests to use it. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney <paulmck@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Reviewed-by: Josh Triplett <josh@joshtriplett.org>
* rcutorture: Abstract torture_shuffle()Paul E. McKenney2014-02-231-0/+151
| | | | | | | | | | | The torture_shuffle() function forces each CPU in turn to go idle periodically in order to check for problems interacting with per-CPU variables and with dyntick-idle mode. Because this sort of debugging is not specific to RCU, this commit abstracts that functionality. This in turn requires abstracting some additional infrastructure. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

* rcutorture: Abstract torture_shutdown_absorb()Paul E. McKenney2014-02-231-0/+20
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Because handling races between rmmod and normal shutdown is not specific to rcutorture, this commit renames rcutorture_shutdown_absorb() to torture_shutdown_absorb() and pulls it out into then kernel/torture.c module. This implies pulling the fullstop mechanism into kernel/torture.c as well. The exporting of fullstop and fullstop_mutex is ugly and must die. And it does in fact die in later commits that introduce higher-level APIs that encapsulate both of these variables. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

* rcutorture: Abstract rcu_torture_random()Paul E. McKenney2014-02-231-0/+71
Because rcu_torture_random() will be used by the locking equivalent to rcutorture, pull it out into its own module. This new module cannot be separately configured, instead, use the Kconfig "select" statement from the Kconfig options of tests depending on it.
