rcu: Panic after fixed number of stalls

2020-11-20T03:37:16+00:00

Some stalls are transient, so that system fully recovers.  This commit
therefore allows users to configure the number of stalls that must happen
in order to trigger kernel panic.

rcu: Don't invoke try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() with irqs disabled

2020-11-11T01:10:38+00:00

The try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() function requires that
interrupts be enabled, but it is called with interrupts disabled from
rcu_print_task_stall(), resulting in an "IRQs not enabled as expected"
diagnostic.  This commit therefore updates rcu_print_task_stall()
to accumulate a list of the first few tasks while holding the current
leaf rcu_node structure's ->lock, then releases that lock and only then
uses try_invoke_on_locked_down_task() to attempt to obtain per-task
detailed information.  Of course, as soon as ->lock is released, the
task might exit, so the get_task_struct() function is used to prevent
the task structure from going away in the meantime.

rcu: Add READ_ONCE() to rcu_do_batch() access to rcu_cpu_stall_ftrace_dump

2020-08-25T01:36:08+00:00

Given that sysfs can change the value of rcu_cpu_stall_ftrace_dump at any
time, this commit adds a READ_ONCE() to the accesses to that variable.

rcu: Add READ_ONCE() to rcu_do_batch() access to rcu_kick_kthreads

2020-08-25T01:36:07+00:00

Given that sysfs can change the value of rcu_kick_kthreads at any time,
this commit adds a READ_ONCE() to the sole access to that variable.

rcu: Add callbacks-invoked counters

2020-06-29T18:58:49+00:00

This commit adds a count of the callbacks invoked to the per-CPU rcu_data
structure.  This count is printed by the show_rcu_gp_kthreads() that
is invoked by rcutorture and the RCU CPU stall-warning code.  It is also
intended for use by drgn.

rcu: constify sysrq_key_op

2020-05-15T12:53:20+00:00

With earlier commits, the API no longer discards the const-ness of the
sysrq_key_op. As such we can add the notation.
