torture: Make torture_hrtimeout_ns() take an hrtimer mode parameter

2023-11-28T17:20:08+00:00

[ Upstream commit a741deac787f0d2d7068638c067db20af9e63752 ] The current torture-test sleeps are waiting for a duration, but there are situations where it is better to wait for an absolute time, for example, when ending a stutter interval. This commit therefore adds an hrtimer mode parameter to torture_hrtimeout_ns(). Why not also the other torture_hrtimeout_*() functions? The theory is that most absolute times will be in nanoseconds, especially not (say) jiffies. Signed-off-by: Paul E.

torture: Add a kthread-creation callback to _torture_create_kthread()

2023-08-14T22:00:37+00:00

This commit adds a kthread-creation callback to the _torture_create_kthread() function, which allows callers of a new torture_create_kthread_cb() macro to specify a function to be invoked after the kthread is created but before it is awakened for the first time.

rcutorture: Call preempt_schedule() through static call/key

2022-04-12T00:07:29+00:00

The rcutorture test suite sometimess triggers a random scheduler preemption call while simulating a read delay. Unfortunately, its direct call to preempt_schedule() bypasses the static call/key filter used by CONFIG_PREEMPT_DYNAMIC. This breaks the no-preempt assumption when the dynamic preemption mode is "none". For example, rcu_blocking_is_gp() is fooled and abbreviates grace periods when the CPU runs in no-preempt UP mode. Fix this by making torture_preempt_schedule() call __preempt_schedule(), which uses the static call/key. Reported-by: Paul E. McKenney Signed-off-by: Frederic Weisbecker Signed-off-by: Paul E.

rcutorture: Warn on individual rcu_torture_init() error conditions

2021-09-13T23:36:16+00:00

When running rcutorture as a module, any rcu_torture_init() issues will be reflected in the error code from modprobe or insmod, as the case may be. However, these error codes are not available when running rcutorture built-in, for example, when using the kvm.sh script. This commit therefore adds WARN_ON_ONCE() to allow distinguishing rcu_torture_init() errors when running rcutorture built-in. Signed-off-by: Paul E. McKenney

torture: Maintain torture-specific set of CPUs-online books

2021-01-07T01:17:22+00:00

The TREE01 rcutorture scenario intentionally creates confusion as to the number of available CPUs by specifying the "maxcpus=8 nr_cpus=43" kernel boot parameters. This can disable rcutorture's load shedding, which currently uses num_online_cpus(), which would count the extra 35 CPUs. However, the rcutorture guest OS will be provisioned with only 8 CPUs, which means that rcutorture will present full load even when all but one of the original 8 CPUs are offline. This can result in spurious errors due to extreme overloading of that single remaining CPU. This commit therefore keeps a separate set of books on the number of usable online CPUs, so that torture_num_online_cpus() is used for load shedding instead of num_online_cpus(). Note that initial sizing must use num_online_cpus() because torture_num_online_cpus() will return NR_CPUS until shortly after torture_onoff_init() is invoked.

torture: Throttle VERBOSE_TOROUT_*() output

2021-01-07T01:17:21+00:00

torture: Add fuzzed hrtimer-based sleep functions

2021-01-07T01:17:19+00:00

This commit adds torture_hrtimeout_ns(), torture_hrtimeout_us(), torture_hrtimeout_ms(), torture_hrtimeout_jiffies(), and torture_hrtimeout_s(), each of which uses hrtimers to block for a fuzzed time interval. These functions are intended to be used by the various torture tests to decouple wakeups from the timer wheel, thus providing more opportunity for Murphy to insert destructive race conditions.

rcutorture: Add races with task-exit processing

2020-06-29T19:01:44+00:00

Several variants of Linux-kernel RCU interact with task-exit processing, including preemptible RCU, Tasks RCU, and Tasks Trace RCU. This commit therefore adds testing of this interaction to rcutorture by adding rcutorture.read_exit_burst and rcutorture.read_exit_delay kernel-boot parameters. These kernel parameters control the frequency and spacing of special read-then-exit kthreads that are spawned.

locktorture.c: Fix if-statement empty body warnings

2020-04-27T18:05:13+00:00

When using -Wextra, gcc complains about torture_preempt_schedule() when its definition is empty (i.e., when CONFIG_PREEMPTION is not set/enabled). Fix these warnings by adding an empty do-while block for that macro when CONFIG_PREEMPTION is not set. Fixes these build warnings: ../kernel/locking/locktorture.c:119:29: warning: suggest braces around empty body in an ‘if’ statement [-Wempty-body] ../kernel/locking/locktorture.c:166:29: warning: suggest braces around empty body in an ‘if’ statement [-Wempty-body] ../kernel/locking/locktorture.c:337:29: warning: suggest braces around empty body in an ‘if’ statement [-Wempty-body] ../kernel/locking/locktorture.c:490:29: warning: suggest braces around empty body in an ‘if’ statement [-Wempty-body] ../kernel/locking/locktorture.c:528:29: warning: suggest braces around empty body in an ‘if’ statement [-Wempty-body] ../kernel/locking/locktorture.c:553:29: warning: suggest braces around empty body in an ‘if’ statement [-Wempty-body] I have verified that there is no object code change (with gcc 7.5.0).
